Hello -
Looks like the unrar module is missing after a recent update. Restarting, removing the docker image and loading it again didn't work (I didn't delete the docker image, though).

Code: Select all

There was a problem with the rar deb package. It should be updated now so you can fix it with apt update/apt upgrade. If not, you can fix it by manually adding a symlink from /usr/bin/unrar to /usr/bin/unrar-nonfree:
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/unrar-nonfree /usr/bin/unrar

I am having the same issue. Looks like unrar got removed with last Ubuntu update. I reinstalled it, and now there is a simlink from /usr/bin/unrar to /etc/alternatives/unrar, and that is a simlink to /usr/bin/unrar-nonfree. Seems like a long way around, and still not working, downloads won't start. I still see the missing unrar binary not found error when the container is restarted. Strange.

I did both suggestions mentioned by Puzzled. After doing the symlink and forcing the app to restart I was able to get sab working again. thanks!

I had to pull the latest container - linuxserver io. Issue was resolved there.
