new to couch potato ....

Post by gouie »

Hey everyone, I've been using SAB for a few years now and love it. I've just recently started using Couchpotato and am growing to like it but am having a problem with downloads not completing. I'm not sure what the cause is but; the download gets to within 1 or t MB of completing, 10 seconds on the clock, and sits there indefinitely. I'm initiating the download with CP and using the default couch potato.py script (haven't made any changes within the script either). Could my issue be with the postprocessing script?

Well, looks like total operator error, I've been using the startup script as the post processing; DUH. Is there an "out of the box" post processing script a guy can use to unrar, move and rename?

Does the download hang in the download queue or the post-processing queue?

Download queue, definitely thinking it's the download. Looks like I've got the post processing working with one small glitch, I'm unable to change the "rename folder" format. I can add components but can't remove them, strange.

Does the popup that appears when you put the mouse cursor over the job name
show many missing articles?
When shows when you click the job title?

Looks like a whole hockey sock of issues have lead to this specific problem. The download was "breaking" due to a scheduled move off of my unraid cache drive. I'm not sure if this fragmented the actual download but I believe it was moving my application installation because I did not have the share set to "cache only" (at least I think this is the case; I'll be testing that theory tonight). As far as the rename folder format, turns out the little X that is supposed to appear over each field is not supported on a Mac; not sure if it's the Mac or Safari, trying on a Windows box worked.
