Can't get NZBGet running on MacOS 10.15

Post by rr0ss0rr » 17 Oct 2019, 22:24

Nothing but issues since I upgraded MacOS to 10.15 .. This was all working prior to the upgrade

Running NZBGet 21.1-testing-r2311 on MacOS 10.15, latest nzbToMedia and SickChill Version: v2019.06.28-1

Every NZB is now showing FETCH: SUCCESS SCAN: SKIPPED with a blue "URL" tag at the end of the show name. I have verified that the NZB file is actually a NZB file. I'm running into a wall trying to find the cause.

Only the following in the log

INFO Thu Oct 17 2019 18:15:49 Collection Batwoman.S01E01.Pilot.720p.AMZN.WEB-DL.DDP5.1.H.264-NTb added to history

Thanks for any help

Reinstalled and Can't get NZBGet running on MacOS 10.15

Post by rr0ss0rr » 20 Oct 2019, 00:09

So, I deleted NZBGet and applicable folders on the Mac and reinstalled 21.1-testing-r2311 and now ... Nothing.
If I try to manually add a NZB file, I receive the following:

JavaScript from "localhost"
The file could not be added to the Queue
Please check the messages tab for any error messages

The problem is, there are no error messages in the log

Thanks

ok .. So the problem was that NZBGet had to be authorized to access "Downloads" in SysPrefs "Security & Privacy". So I'm back to seeing if it works with SickChill. Hopefully making progress

I'm also having an issue with 10.15. I can get the files to download, but they won't save properly on my external drive. I've checked the log and it's not showing any errors either. I have given NZBGet 'full disc access' in security settings, so i'm not sure what the issue is.

The destination directory in the settings is ~/Volumes/ExternalHDD, but since updating, whenever I download a file a new directory has been created at ~/User/Volumes/ExternalHDD (which is not on the external drive, despite the name).

Any thoughts on how to fix this? No idea what is causing it or why NZBGet thinks those directories are in the same location.

Because ~ means your home directory.

I can now say that the complete removal and reinstall of NZBGet fixed whatever issue I had ... something must have been corrupted. Thanks

Nope .. Something is going on with NZBGet and Folder Access with 10.15. As a test, I replaced NZBGet with SABnzbd and had no "permission" issues
