Hi RuddBurger,

Loving this app, had it running fine for the last month until today when I tried to hit it timed out. Logged in to my box, killed and restarted it. Now it seems to just die straight away. With the following written to the logs:

Code: Select all

19:06:39,507 INFO  [app.lib.cron.cronYarr] Searching for new download for all movies.
19:06:39,851 ERROR [app.config.updater] Failed to open http://github.com/RuudBurger/CouchPotato/tarball/master.
19:06:40,048 INFO  [app.lib.cron] Stopping Cronjobs.

19:07:11,671 INFO  [app.lib.cron.cronTrailer] TrailerCron shutting down.
19:07:14,503 INFO  [app.lib.cron.cronRenamer] Renamer has shutdown.
Oops, as i'm typing this is now successfully started up. But i'm guessing that the app has a wierd failiure when it can't hit github. Might be worth taking a look at.

Cheers, and thanks for the great spp!

Has anyone got this running on an unraid server yet?  I have Sabnzdb and Sickbeard running fine but I cannot for the life of me get this to run?

All I have done is add "python /mydirectory/CouchPotato.py to my "Go" file but it throws back some error install loggers taking onyl 2 arguements not three or something similar.

Any help appreciated.

@Bigmonty you need Python 2.6, you have 2.5.

Hi,

Thanks for that.

I am going to chance my luck and ask for more help as I'm a bit stuck :)

I used this guide to install Sabnzdb and Sickbeard http://www.lockstockmods.net/2010/06/03 ... sickbeard/

I have used your advice and dowloaded Python  2.6 from here http://mirrors.easynews.com/linux/slack ... i486-1.txz

and added a line to install it after the Sabnzdb dependencies line.  
Still no luck however - any ideas?

Cheers

What a great tool.  This is simply a great way to do things.  Thank you.

This is my first day running this, i have python 2.7 on a win7 64 bit rig.  I seem to not be able to open the settings tab, it simply greys out.

Any thoughts?

I appreciate the support.

You don't see any settings window?
Maybe try other browser?

PM me a screenshot, dunno what is happening.

I have tried running it on a different drive and nothing seems to work even tried manually editing the config file to see if that would help but no luck.

I see this : 17:40:34,447 INFO  [app.lib.cron.cronRenamer] Watched folder doesn't exist.

Try setting up a folder where CP needs to watch for new movies , maybe that helps ??

I was thinking about that too but the config file has nothing about a watched folder in it so I have no idea how to set it up.....

Setting issues seems to be resolved.  the solution was to use the IP address vs "local host"

Thanks as always!

When I click settings I get a message that says stack overflow at line 0.  Anyone else getting this?

yes i get this, but it shows me the settings anyways.. if i am using the IP address, if I use local host, it shows me nothing for settings, but everything else works.  Editing the config in notepad++ gives me the same features.

I had an issue too the other day. I tested CP on my MacBook Pro and everything was fine. Then shut down CP on the MBP and installed it on my Mac Mini server (Mediacenter + download machine) and I couldn't get it to run. Same issue as ZenFire is mentioning.

I then changed the portnumber in the config.ini to 5001 instead of 5000 and now it's running fine.. :)
