Hi guys,

 

Very much new at this, as you will probably be able to tell. I'm using unraid 5.0 btw.

 

I'm trying to run a python pkg or application on unraid. I did get it to work for a little while, but now I can't get it to work at all.

 

Ok here is what I did.

 

Via telnet I installed the the Sickbeard TPB version with the following:

 

cd /mnt/cache/appdata/
git clone https://github.com/mr-orange/Sick-Beard.git

 

Then I installed the python-cheetah pkg with the following:

 

wget http://connie.slackware.com/~alien/slackbuilds/python-cheetah/pkg/13.37/python-cheetah-2.4.4-i486-1alien.tgz
installpkg python-cheetah-2.4.4-i486-1alien.tgz

 

Then I ran the pkg with,

 

/usr/bin/python /mnt/cache/appdata/Sick-Beard/SickBeard.py -d -p 8084

 

It worked perfectly, I was able to set up sickbeard to grab torrents and send them to transmissions to download.

 

However it wouldn't persist through reboot, I had to re-run the wget python-cheetah and installpkg again to get sickbeard TPB to work.

 

That when I tryed to added this to the end of my Go script.

 

while ! test -d /mnt/disk1;do sleep 5;done;sleep 10
/usr/bin/python /mnt/cache/appdata/Sick-Beard/SickBeard.py -d -p 8040 

 

I thought that didn't work because the python-cheetah pkg wasn't installed.

 

Then I noticed that unmenu had a  python-cheetah pkg, it's pkg python-cheetah-2.4.2 however and the one i was installing previously is python-cheetah-2.4.4. I thought that with each reboot the package needs to be re-installed, so i didn't think it would matter if the other was a previous version. This is incorrect isn't it?

 

When i tired to install the unmenu pkg i saw this error "Installed, but version is different. Current version='sh: /usr/bin/cheetah: /usr/bin/python: bad interpreter: No such file or directory' expected '2.4.2.1''", and now i can't get sickbeard TPB to run at all.

 

When I run this, as I did previously

 

wget http://connie.slackware.com/~alien/slackbuilds/python-cheetah/pkg/13.37/python-cheetah-2.4.4-i486-1alien.tgz
installpkg python-cheetah-2.4.4-i486-1alien.tgz

 

It seems to install correctly, however when I ran "/usr/bin/python /mnt/cache/appdata/Sick-Beard/SickBeard.py" or "python /mnt/cache/appdata/Sick-Beard/SickBeard.py", I got "no such file or directory".

 

If anyone has any idea what would work I would be really appreciated it.

So I figured out my problem, as with seemingly all my unraid issues it was down to user error.

 

I was mistaken to think that the "python-cheetah-2.4.4-i486-1alien.tgz" installed both python and cheetah, and the reason it was previously stopped working was because I uninstalled influencers couchpotato_V2 plugin, which was the the only plugin of his I use which was installing python 2.6.6.

 

Since I re-installed couchpotato, added "python-cheetah-2.4.4-i486-1alien.tgz" to the /boot/packages folder of my unraid flash drive, and added the following to my go script everything is working as intended.

 

# determine if cache drive online, retry upto 7 times
for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
do
    if [ ! -d /mnt/cache ]
    then
      sleep 15
    fi
done

# If Cache drive is online, install python-cheetah and start Sickbeard TPB
if [ -d /mnt/cache ]; then
  cd /mnt/cache/appdata
  installpkg /boot/packages/python-cheetah-2.4.4-i486-1alien.tgz
  python /mnt/cache/appdata/Sick-Beard/SickBeard.py -d -p 8084
fi

 

I'm not exactly sure if that is the best way to do it (comment more then welcome), but it is working so for the time being I will just leave it as is.
