Looking for help granting storage permissions in sabnzbd iocage plugin

[Stingray88]

I've finally upgraded from 11.2 to 11.3, and thankfully now that we have access to a community supported plugin repo, I'm working on making the transition from my old sabnzbd warden plugin over to the community supported sabnzbd iocage plugin. Unfortunately I've hit a snag when setting permissions, and it's not something I've seen before.

I've been following these instructions, specifically solution 2, for years on how to grant proper permissions to my media storage for plugins, usually works without a hitch. I use the built in user 'media' with the UID 8675309 for all of my plugins and storage pool.

Unfortunately when I go to run this line -

Code:

chown -R media:media /var/db/sabnzbd

I'm met with this error -

Code:

chown: /var/db/sabnzbd: No such file or directory

I've tried to just skip this command, no dice, no permission on my storage for sabnzbd. I've tried to just run the command on /var/db instead, but that made the plugin unable to start (which doesn't surprise me, I'm sure that really messed up permissions it wasn't supposed to).

My guess is something about this plugin is setup differently than all the others? Or are there newer more up to date instructions I should be following?

Any advice? I feel like this has got to be pretty simple... but I just don't really know what to do at this point...

If you used the new plugin, the format has changed since the iocage switch.

/usr/local/share/sabnzbdplus is where mine is (I did a manual install of the jail using the same pkg system the plugin uses, so I expect the path to be the same).

You probably need to re-create the plugin after killing the permissions though.

That's a bummer. As you expected... this kills the plugin. The service will not restart now.

I'd rather not go through the steps of manually recreating the plugin. What's the easiest way for me to grant the proper storage persmission on a plugin without installing anything manually, I want to be able to rely on the packages and updates provided by the ixsystems and community repos.

Is there an easy way to do this in iocage? Used to be so simple with Warden... the instructions I linked are pretty brain dead simple.

Bumping this thread.

What is the proper way to grant storage permissions in iocage plugins? The old warden instructions do not work anymore.
