Client Troubleshooting

Tmp not found

Corruption checks require a temp folder to write the db file. This may be a couple hundred megabytes or more. Set the TMPDIR environment variable to a writable path, or mount /tmp to resolve the error.

Resolving Duplicate Clients

If you have duplicate clients on the website and are setting a hostname after the fact, see these instructions for resolving the duplicates after setting a hostname.

Compressed Config File

Once you click save in the Web UI, the config file is compressed. It will look like gibberish when you try to edit it. In the rare case the UI is not accessible and the conf file must be edited, you will need to decompress the file with bzcat prior to making your edits. Example:

bzcat /path/to/notifiarr.conf > /output/path/to/notifiarr_decomp.conf

Clearing Logs

  • To clear logs to make troubleshooting easier - stop the client and rename/remove the log file, then restart the client.
  • If you have not previously enabled debug logs you do not need to clear anything.
