Help - Post Processing

Post by thechosenginger »

I am having an issue with post processing. I am running sabnzbd, radarr, and sonarr throughdocker on a rasp pi. Things will download to the pi and attached storage devices(completed folder under sabnzbd), but will fail to create a final folder. Im assuming this is a permissions issue, but i dont know where to start or go with it.

Quick and dirty you can chmod everything under the folder to 777, but this is not very clean.
What user are you running SAB under?
Try using the terminal as that users (I believe the command is "su USER" (I'm no linux expert) and then try to create directories in the folders.
Make sure to add the SAB user to the right groups.

I have tried changing the folder permissions from 755 to 777. This still did not work. I am running SAB under the sudo user 'pi'. I am manually able to create folders within the areas i need, but SAB is not able to create the final destination folder.

Are you sure Sab is running as that user? If you installed it via the PPA repository, it will run as it's own user.
