Couchpotato plg installation

The preferred method of installing this plugin is via the plg file. You can get it (and others) from here

I installed to an alternate directory (/mnt/cache/.couchpotato, and /mnt/cache/.couchpotato/datadir) with an alternate port (8092) and ran into these two issues.

1. The plg installs to a subdirectory called RuudBurger-<versionnumber>. While unRaid settings menu tried to start the plugin, it was running /mnt/cache/.couchpotato/CouchPotato.py, but that file was in that RuudBurger-<versionnumber> subdirectory.

Easy fix: from the shell do this:

cd /mnt/cache/.couchpotato/RuudBurger-983483
mv * ../
mv .* ../
cd ..
rmdir RuudBurger-983483

explanation of the above code is like this:

go into the fold with the actual program files

move everything one directory down

move everything that hidden one directory down

move down one directory

remove the wrong installation directory

2. There are big red letters to not install the latest couchpotato using the auto-updater inside the program or it will crash. Better to just turn that feature off

couchpotato > Settings > General > un-check "use updater"

You can still update couchpotato, but you must do so through the unRaid Settings GUI.

Then you can run the plugin normally from the unRaid Settings menu.
