Radarr and Sonarr not connecting to NZBGET


Recommended Posts

Hello Everyone

My connection to NZBGET was fine until today.

It passes the connection test but i can't grab anything else.

Error says Pipeline error Request Failed. POST /api/v3/queue/grab/924571016: Unable to connect to NzbGet. An error occurred while sending the request.

Is there anything i can try to fix the situtation

Containers like sonarr, radarr, lidarr etc tend to work better using a custom network to communicate with each other. However as when you click test connection it passes this may not fix your problem. But worth a try anyway

 

Some people find after sonarr and radarr working fine by connecting through the server ip address and port number this stops working.

So here are the steps to put them on a custom network so they can talk through name resolution.

 

Make sure that on settings/docker/    that you have preserve user defined networks.   (you will need to stop the docker service to change this setting)

You will need a custom docker network. To create this goto the web terminal and type

 

docker network create proxynet

 

(the network can be called whatever you like doesnt need to be called proxynet that is just what i call mine)

 

Now you must change  nzbget, sonarr radarr and any other containers that connect to nzbget to use this network.

So goto the docker template and change the network type to the type you created above.

Once all relivant containers are changed to this network they can communicate with each other using the name of the container rather than an ip address.

 

So in sonarr, radarr etc. Goto download clients and change the host to the name of the nzbget conatainer. (mine is called nzbgetvpn)

You still need the port no as before

Now click test and it will come back all good :)
