Any community plugin install results in corrupt jail?

[Daisuke]

I'm trying to install community plugins like Dnsmasq, NZBGet and Radarr from TrueNAS UI. However, every time I do it, the jail is marked as corrupt. Is there a command I can run from an ssh session to install the plugin, which will not result in a corrupt jail?

The best route is to create a jail then install these softwares into it. Its actually very simple to do. A couple sample commands should get you going. Youll ssh into you machine and do something like this-

iocage create -n JAILNAME -r 12.2-RELEASE ip4_addr="vnet0|YOU.RIP.ADR.ESS/24" defaultrouter="YOU.RGA.TEW.AY.IP" boot="on" host_hostname="JAILNAME" vnet="on" allow_raw_sockets="on"

Now you have a jail, enter it. Make sure its running and enter it
iocage console JAILNAME

These will make sure everything is up to date and install your softwares, I include nano because its great to have around..
pkg update && pkg upgrade pkg install nano nzbget radarr dnsmasq

Have them start at boot and start them.
sysrc nzbget_enable="YES" dnsmasq_enable="YES" radarr_enable="YES" service nzbget start service dnsmasq start service radarr start

You should now be able to visit the IP you selected and the softwares corresponding port for configuration. ex 192.168.1.50:7878

Will this allow me to upgrade easy to future release versions? Right now I cannot upgrade an existing plexmediaserver official plugin from 12.1 to 12.2.
