Ok. So do I need to create an "extra" directory under the boot directory because I dont have one?

 

Once I create this directory I just need to restart my unraid server and it will install mediainfo since I'll have that txz file in there?

 

I know that unRAID 5 looks for the /boot/extra/ directory at startup & installs any packages it finds there. I do not think unRAID 4.x will do this, but I am not sure.

So I  added the mediainfo file into boot/extra/ and I dont know if it installed or not. I added on the directory where mediainfo is supposed to be /usr/bin/mediainfo and I dont think it's working. I'm still getting releases that are nothing but numbers and not actual show names or whatever they actually are. I dont know what to do.

Hmm, wonder why i'm not seeing those previews in my TV releases.

 

Thanks.

 

PsiCzar, do you have ffmpeg installed? Did you use the alien version or the draug3n version?

 

When I had the alien version of ffmpeg installed, I did not have the Preview links in between NFO & View Series either.

 

I installed the ffmpeg from draug3n then started getting Preview links on new releases created by update_releases.php after the change. I had to run the SQL query to get previews on the existing releases.

 

The extra preview column in the screenshot is from modifications.

 

ffmpeg is definitely there, I can see it in /usr/bin. The package I installed is ffmpeg-0.7.12-i686-1sl.txz, no idea which one that is though. Where did you get the draug3n version from?

 

Where am I supposed to see the previews if you created the extra column? How did you create the extra column?

 

Whats the SQL query to update previews on previous releases?

 

In your movies section do you have many 1080P releases? I am missing a lot compared to what I know has been released. I backfilled the last 2 months and I have plenty of 720p releases but hardly any 1080p. If I go into Other > Misc I have 80 pages of garbled releases. No idea what I am doing wrong.

 

Thanks and sorry for all the questions  :)

When I used the alien version of ffmpeg, it showed under /usr/bin/ & responded to "which ffmpeg"... however it did not provide me with preview links.

Ok well I messed up something. I decided to do a reinstall of unraid to get rid of all my extra crap i dont need/no long want. Installed the same way as i did before. But now I cant get the web server to run. It just stays as "Stopped" under errors i get

edit your php.ini file in the simple features folder.  there is a line

 

date.timezone = "EDT"

 

should read something like

 

date.timezone = "America/New_York"

What results do you get for "php -i |grep timezone" without quotes?

Anyone seen a working MYTOP, NMON and IOTOP.  I have a script that uses them I would like to try.

Is this the script? http://www.newznabforums.com/index.php?topic=128.0

 

I'm trying to get all the dependencies for this installed myself. I got most of the packages from pkgs.org but am struggling with mytop as there doesnt seem to be a slackware package available

yes that is the script.  Have you tried running it yet.  The packages i got off of pkgs.org do not appear to be installing correctly...

every time I run it it tells me I have some package missing so I have been installing each one then running it again.

 

I've got everything but mytop installed so far.

 

Go to www.pkgs.org and search for the relevant packages, then grab the ones for slackware.

 

Use wget and paste the links in that you got from pkgs.org then install each one manually using the commands below.

 

upgradepkg --install-new iotop-0.4.4-i686-1cf.txz

upgradepkg --install-new nmon-14g-i686-1cf.txz

upgradepkg --install-new libevent-1.4.14a-i486-1sl.txz

upgradepkg --install-new tmux-1.5-i486-1_SBo.tgz

 

pkgs.org didnt have the tmux package but I found it here http://porneia.free.fr/bin/slackbuilds/tmux-1.5-i486-1_SBo.tgz

Found and installed the Draugh3n versions of lame and ffmpeg and modified the newznab browse template and now I am seeing the previews.

 

Thanks!

Hey guys.  I probably missed this in the previous posts but is there an automated way to run the update_binaries and releases in a cron script or what not?

The recommended way is using a screen to run them... So without CRON... Instructions are in the update folder..

this is the info http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=24676.msg217456#msg217456 i got from the other guys on running the cron script....

 

 

edit: fixed my issue, removed unneccesary comments, cron command script works as linked in my post above

i am getting these since a few days

 

PHP Warning:  gzinflate(): data error in /var/www/newznab/www/lib/framework/cache.php on line 78

 

everything seems to work but would like to get rid of these :P

 

any ideas ?

You need to update the plugin to have this version of sql - mysql-5.5.29-i486-1gds.txz

 

The one in the plugin is no longer available.

well mine broke after running fine for a few days. now it wont pull anything down anymore... tried with a brand new database, but that didnt do anything.

 

if i run it manually, i can see the update_binaries finds a bunch of stuff, then if i run the update_releases it just comes up with 0 releases and stops.

 

tybio's cron script is also running every 30 minutes and that yields the same result. with the new database, there isnt even one entry under the groups...

 

do u think a reboot and a new install AGAIN would fix anything??

I'll update the plug-in for the new version of mysql, trying to catch up, :D

 

It seems most of the posts are with configuration and actually running newznab, not issues with the plug-in itself. This is the reason I haven't posted (I myself have not been actively running my own indexer so others are more capable of helping)

Did you upgrade to nzbplus?

 

I was having trouble after I upgrade then I:

 

cd /tmp

wget  https://raw.github.com/kop1/newznab/master/db/latestregex.sql

mysql -u USERNAME -p DATABASENAME < latestregex.sql

 

And it fixed everything.

 

fucking eh dude  :D

 

that did the trick!!! thanks a shit load  :)

 

lets see how long it stays functioning this time around lol
