Category path not going where I want it to

Post by DrCrypt » 27 Aug 2021, 16:52

Hi all —

I feel like I'm stupidly misunderstanding something fundamental about how NZBGet handles paths and categories.

I'm on a Synology DS218+ running NZBget through Package Center, not Docker.

Here's what I want to do. I want NZBGet to download NZBs with the category 'Comics' to my comics library folder (~/Media/Comics), so that Ubooquity can automatically scan them and add them to my library.

So I set up a Category called 'Comics' and I set this as the path:

~/Media/Comics/

But when the comic downloads, it ends up here:

/var/packages/nzbget/target/Media/Comics/

And here's a screenshot of my Paths set-up (which I recently changed trying to troubleshoot this by deleting the MainDir and being more specific with all the other directories, but which has been giving me this same error all along):

Does anyone have any ideas about what I'm doing wrong? Thanks in advance.

Try to use absolute paths instead of ~.
