Is the Couch Potato pbi built on v1 or v2?

Is the Couch Potato pbi built on v1 or v2?

Right now neither work lol. The guy changed the link and has 2 branches now I believe, I'm actually working on stuff tonight and should have a v0.7 out by tomorrow morning with all of the current bugs fixed, v2 integrated, and with maraschino in there.

Hi Joshua,

Have you thought of putting up your sources on github? That way we could collaborate and avoid duplicating work. You'd have to split up your scripts from the binaries, though, so that might be a pain. But worth it imo :)

Anyway, I'm building PBIs now based on your 0.6 source tarball. I was really surprised that getting the actual software (sabnzbd, etc) was done in the postinstall scripts. Is that common practice?

I look forward to your 0.7 update!

Also, is there a quick way to install the built pbis from the commandline inside the jail? I don't want the build-test loop to include manually copying files and using the webui to install the plugin...

Lol, it's not common practice. And I think we should actually fix that, lol.
All the programs (except sabnzbd) can autoupdate so it won't matter if we put in an old build.

If I have a chance I'll throw it up on github (or if you want to feel free to), we just gotta figure out a way to get the binaries in there, so maybe ill add a script in there that fetches the needed dependencies, and copies them on a per program basis? Lol, it will get fairly complicated.

Or we could also just go the pbi_portmake route and actually build the dependencies, I just gotta figure out how that works. I think it may not need to build the dependencies each time, hopefully.

yeah, I think pbi_install / pbi_remove, maybe just type pbi and then press tab and you'll see your options. Also look at the pbi docs. Only thing is the gui wont know about these pbi's and thing can be undeletable from the gui if you add them in the gui, then delete from the commandline.

I actaully scripted the whole pbi delete, create, install process into a single script earlier, lol. but felt the plugins were close enough to production for have to do hardcore testing.

So I'm going to most likely recreate my zpool as RAIDZ2 and was wondering how I can backup my plugins so I don't lose all the settings and configs.

 

[Joshua Parker Ruehlig]

There's no official way that I know of. What I recommend is shutdown your plugins. Then save all of their /data folders. I believe I have it setup so all the database / configs are in there. I can't guarantee it till I reexamine everything, if you want to be totally safe just backup everything in /usr/pbi of your jail. After your new raid+jail is setup reinstall the plugins, move the contents of /data in, then start the plugins, everything should be like it was before.

Gotta love RAIDZ2, I just set mine up and am loving it, I love that scrubs basically always come up successful because you essentially have 3 ways to recreate the files.
Sorry, I got busy helping my girlfirend with some stuff (setup a proxy so she can use free google voice while she's in japan) and couldn't finish up 0.7, should be done tonight / tomorrow. I'll make sure all configs/logs/databases are in the /data folder.

I haven't had a chance to look through these yet, hopefully i will this week. Sorry.

 

[Joshua Parker Ruehlig]

Sorry, things might be pushed back a few days... I 'soft bricked' my mom's phone while installing a ROM on it. hopefully I can get it working again for her today, get some sleep, and get on this tonight.

I keep getting errors in SABnzbd

Code:

Cannot change permissions of /usr/pbi/sabnzbd-amd64/data/Downloads/Folders

I have a mount created
source: /mnt/Vol1/Downloads
destination: /usr/pbi/sabnzbd-amd64/data/Downloads

How about showing what the permissions are on that directory. Particularly what the permissions look like from inside the jail and what SABnzbd user's UID/GID is.

And the permissions of /usr/pbi/sabnzbd-amd64/data/Downloads/Folders in particular? Also double check that is the correct path from inside the jail.

Can someone update me on the status of these PBI plug-ins on FreeNAS 8.x??

I am currently looking into upgrading my FreeNAS from FN7 (legacy, no longer supported) to FN 8. One of my biggest concerns is losing the functionality that I have working so well on my FN7 box (SABnzbd+, SickBeard, and Couch Potato).

 

[gesshoku]

0.6 works after some tweaking. i'd recommend to read the entire thread. Couchpotato isn't working currently, but Josh is working on it (when he finds the time of course). i can't say how reliable the plugins work since i'm still waiting for Couchpotato (with 0.7), but from my experience with FreeNAS and these programs i'd say that once they are running they'll keep running.

You can of course also try installing without the plugins. This is how my current setup has been running for months. But i'd recommend to wait just a bit more until 0.7 is ready. Using the plugins really makes the installation easy. My current setup took me a few weeks - though i was new to FreeNAS altogether.
Anyway, if you decide to try it without the plugins, then these are probably the links you should check out:

I notice that RC1 is out as of Friday. Does this mess with the work you guys have been doing, or make your lives easier?

 

[djoole]

Hi!
I've just upgraded from 8.0.1-Release to 8.2.0-RC1 without a glitch :)
The jail is ready, and while i was looking for PBI's for Sab/Sick/Couch/HP i found this great topic.
Great that Josh is on it.
As i'll be away for the next 2 weeks I figure i'll wait for the 0.7 then I'll be happy to make intensive tests on your plugins!

In the meantime i also have to find PBI's for fail2ban and squeezebox server... if any of you have leads on this..

k, a bit of progress on the pidfile situation

Looking at transmission..
It seems control.py checks the status from /var/run/transmission_fcgi_server.pid
Thing is, I don't get how this works, where transmission is on or off, tranmission_fcgi_server is on (I believe this is what controls transmission). So I don't get how freenas suddenly knows transmission itself is on or off. Transmission creates it's own seperate pidfile and process.

Where transmission is on or off, I always get a number (pid of transmission_fcgi_server) when I cat /var/run/transmission_fcgi_server.pid

Gotta read control.py a little more indepth, it's just perplexing to me

The transmission freenas plugin starts a FastCGI server, which is a Python/Django webapp that implements an API.
This FastCGI server responds to a few url requests (the API), one of them is:
/plugins/transmission/_s/status

Which then returns a JSON with the status of the plugin (STOPPED, RUNNING, STARTING, etc)
