Yes, I’m using hub.docker.com and portainer. The other 7 or so containers are in bridge mode on the network I set up. Plex, per the linuxserver.io docs, needs to be under network mode host.

I have set port forwarding on my router to allow external access to port 32400.

You were correct, thank you so much. The apps were in the default network docker0. I looked into it, and the easiest option for my situation was simply to create another bridge network and move my apps into that. Now readarr can find Host = Calibre.

In the log file, verbatim. In sonarr (queue page) it still says seedit4me

For torrents I don’t have an incomplete folder. As I’m using a seedbox it doesn’t seem necessary.

Interesting idea, I’ve never done this before. I tried opening the console from within the sonarr portainer container. That failed with “unable to retrieve image details”

On searching this, I was able to connect using:

sudo docker exec -it sonaar bash

This put me at the root of the container, and from there, I could navigate through:

root@xx:/data/torrents/rtorrent/Completed/tv-sonarr

From there I could see the file. But the permissions were for user abc and group “users”. But I found the same when I browsed to the usenet downloads area, so I think this is more because of the way I logged in to root. I don’t have any issues with usenet and sonaar. ID from there shows my uid as 0 and gid 0

I don’t think the issue is the volume because sonarr is finding my usenet downloads.

The actual folder structure is /data/usenet/download. sonarr is given the volume mount: /data
It gets the download location from SAB. All works fine.

Equating this to my situation, I am expecting the folder mapping to put the download in the location /data/torrents/rtorrent etc Again this matches the info sonarr receives from rutorrent. And the volume mount /data should be allowing access same as it gets to the usenet folders.

Lol I will. If only you knew how long I have spent getting this right so far. But worth it, it’s working perfectly at the moment .

OK awesome, thank you for reassuring. I did setup docker first and added portainer with docker, so it sounds like I’m on the right track. Now I can move on to the arrs and will watch a few guides on that.
