Omg! Thanks so much Josh! Lol. I was using putty to ssh into my server, so I think it was automatically inserting a new line as I typed past the border. I just had to expand putty's window and it fixed the issue. Ugh, something so simple. I can't believe I didn't see it! Thanks again Josh. I really appreciate it. It's running great now.

@Musabi It looks like you got pretty close to getting it working!

Here's a few issues I see, and also some minor suggestions
* you install 'wget', this really isn't needed, just use 'fetch' to download the binary
* you put the jackett files in /usr/local/bin while the rc.d script you use expects the Jackett files to be in /opt. personally, I think these should be somewhere like /usr/local/share/Jackett
* you could just run 'sysrc jackett_enable=YES' to avoid manually editting /etc/rc.conf
* you should not put user created rc.d scripts in /etc/rc.d, these should be in /usr/local/etc/rc.d
* running as media user could not be working because of permissions (the user running should own /var/db/jackett). But I assume in your case, you never created the media user in your jail
* a jail on FreeNAS is not "linux based" and uses linux in no way =P

Here's what I just tried and it worked as expected
Code:
pkg install mono curl
fetch https://github.com/Jackett/Jackett/releases/download/v0.7.363/Jackett.Binaries.Mono.tar.gz
tar xzf Jackett.Binaries.Mono.tar.gz
mv Jackett /usr/local/share
rm Jackett.Binaries.Mono.tar.gz
sysrc jackett_enable=YES


Create /usr/local/etc/rc.d/jackett
Code:
#!/bin/sh
#
# $FreeBSD$
#

# PROVIDE: jackett
# REQUIRE: LOGIN
# KEYWORD: shutdown

# Add the following lines to /etc/rc.conf to enable jackett:
# jackett_enable="YES"

. /etc/rc.subr

name="jackett"
rcvar=jackett_enable

load_rc_config $name

: ${jackett_enable="NO"}
: ${jackett_user:="root"}

command_args="-f ${procname} /usr/local/share/Jackett/JackettConsole.exe -d ${jackett_data_dir}"

start_precmd="export XDG_CONFIG_HOME=${jackett_data_dir}"

Code:

I have tired to replicate the OP setup with Jackett within sonnarr and i have bump into some issues:

I have follow the OP setup a bit (The location of the Jackett Mono v0.7.1272 Install but I have used a different version and copy it manually over FTP) and was able to start without any issues not sure if the Jackett Version problem but I can't seem to add my trackers to jackett without giving me errors. I have also follow this guide by creating [This Thread] on separated jail which worked for a few days but after i restart my freenas machine it seem to give me error when i search stuff from that tracker and was not able to re add tracker or any other ones but public trackers seem to work fine. The error i get from this install is different .... way longer errors.

I have no problem setting up Jackett on my main machine PC and I never encounter this type of error. I have upgrade my freenas recently to new process and ram and i just want to move all services to my server instead of running on my PC as i don't really want it to run 24/7.

When I try a different version jackett start up but won't allow me to click on add indextor.

I haven't tried the beta train for 9.10 so I can't really test out the VMs, I don't really want to just run one VM for jackett as i don't really need a window VM at the moment.

Error From Jackett
Code:

This is something to do with permissions?

I will do full uninstall of jackett tonight and retry it, but yesterday i have tried to remake my old jackett setup but same problem, not able to add indextor.

Hey Guys,

ive only been running Freenas for 2 months and have set up a nice little media center for my family... for the most part its flawless.
i have created jails for: Sonarr, Plex, couchPotato, Transmission, nginx etc.

Creating a jail to run Jackett from has been quite difficult.
i have followed the posts above and have endlessly searched google to find an simple install procedure without luck.

i have followed the above (as best as i can make out) but i get permission denied when trying to run the service.

Here is the procedure i follow:
Code:
pkg install mono curl

fetch https://github.com/Jackett/Jackett/releases/download/v0.7.1377/Jackett.Binaries.Mono.tar.gz

tar xzf Jackett.Binaries.Mono.tar.gz

mv Jackett /usr/local/share

rm Jackett.Binaries.Mono.tar.gz

sysrc jackett_enable=YES


Code:
mkdir /usr/local/etc/rc.d/jackett


Code:
ee /usr/local/etc/rc.d/jackett.sh


Then i enter the config:

Code:
#!/bin/sh

#

# $FreeBSD$

#


# PROVIDE: jackett

# REQUIRE: LOGIN

# KEYWORD: shutdown


# Add the following lines to /etc/rc.conf to enable jackett:

# jackett_enable="YES"


. /etc/rc.subr


name="jackett"

rcvar=jackett_enable


load_rc_config $name


: ${jackett_enable="NO"}

: ${jackett_user:="root"}

: ${jackett_data_dir:="/var/db/jackett"}


procname="/usr/local/bin/mono"

command="/usr/sbin/daemon"

command_args="-f ${procname} /usr/local/share/Jackett/JackettConsole.exe -d ${jackett_data_dir}"


start_precmd="export XDG_CONFIG_HOME=${jackett_data_dir}"


run_rc_command "$1"


Then

Code:
chmod +x /usr/local/etc/rc.d/jackett

service jackett strart


from this i get an error:

PERMISSION DENIED

Could someone please look over my process and tell me what i could possibly be doing wrong?

Please be gentle ... im new to this :s

The
Code:
 mkdir /usr/local/etc/rc.d/jackett
command is unnecessary. You should only have your rc file(s) in /usr/local/etc/rc.d not a directories. Your rc file should be named /usr/local/etc/rc.d/jackett note the absence of .sh from the end of the filename.

Glad it worked out. You might want to check out radarr as a replacement for couchpotato. Also, Organizr makes a great unified frontend for all of the individual websites of plex, sonarr, etc.

NVM, it was a permission problem. I made a bobo by modifying the permissions of the entire jail. So i started from scratch and its working great

Hey guys - another FreeNas noob asking questions.

I got Jackett running two times now by following your guides, but whenever I stop the jail, I can't restart the service.
Code:
root@Jackett:/ # service jackett start									   
Starting jackett.															 
login class 'daemon' non-existent, using default							 
root@Jackett:/ # service jackett status									   
jackett is not running.													   
root@Jackett:/ #


However, deleting and reinstalling the whole jail i can get it to work again - just not a valid process for when restarting a jail ;)

Anyone knows a fix for this?

I've ran into an issue with the scripts that are included in this posting. If you have multiple services running (radarr / sonarr) and jackett installed at the same time and you issue a "service jackett stop" it will stop the other processes as well and not just itself.

EDIT

I fixed this by adding a poststart_cmd to find the PID of JackettConsole.exe and then writing that to my pidfile varible which avoids the problem above.

Code:
#!/bin/sh
#
# $FreeBSD$
#

# PROVIDE: jackett
# REQUIRE: LOGIN
# KEYWORD: shutdown

# Add the following lines to /etc/rc.conf to enable jackett:
# jackett_enable="YES"

. /etc/rc.subr

name="jackett"
rcvar=jackett_enable

load_rc_config $name
start_postcmd="${name}_poststart"
stop_postcmd="${name}_poststop"

: ${jackett_enable="NO"}
: ${jackett_user:="root"}
: ${jackett_data_dir:="/var/db/jackett"}

pidfile="${jackett_data_dir}/jackett.pid"
procname="/usr/local/bin/mono"
command="/usr/sbin/daemon"
command_args="-f ${procname} /usr/local/Jackett/JackettConsole.exe -d ${jackett_data_dir}"

start_precmd="export XDG_CONFIG_HOME=${jackett_data_dir}"

jackett_poststart()
{
		echo `ps ax | grep "JackettConsole.exe" | grep -v grep | awk '{print $1}'` > $pidfile
}
jackett_poststop()
{
		rm $pidfile
}

run_rc_command "$1"

maybe you could try letting daemon do this for you?
command_args="-f -p ${pidfile} ${procname} /usr/local/Jackett/JackettConsole.exe -d ${jackett_data_dir}"

I'm still very new to these scripts and that looks like a much simpler solution. I'll give it a try.. thanks!
