Details Name: Sickrage Website: https://sickrage.tv/forums/ Added on: 21st of January 2015 # Description Magic TV tool. # Version management Server wide installation is updated every 30 minutes. Once installed you have the option to use the build-in updater to update to any version you would like. # Tips and tricks * Sickrage is setup to work with both rTorrent and Deluge out of the box. It accomplishes this by download .torrent files to the torrents/watch folder where they will be automatically picked up by your client and then processed by Filebot. * There is no post-processing done by Sickrage by default since this would interfere with Filebot's post-processing. Feel free to change this though. * Please note that if you connect Sickrage to your torrent client directly Filebot will most likely stop working. * If you are using the new 8TB AppBoxes and wish to have SickRage correctly update when items have been downloaded, make sure you change the default directory to /home/hd1/[yourUsername]/media/TV Shows * For some reason, a backup & restore doesn't restore TV show posters...but a mass update & rescan is able to restore the images. * It's advised not to use the Backup feature of Sickrage between installations since it also backups port and passwords. ## Connecting directly to rTorrent If you want to skip Filebot and use Sickrage directly use the following settings. Please note that you will have work around a bug and submit the details twice: | Setting | Value | ------------- |-------------| |rTorrent host:port |username.servername.bysh.me/rutorrent | |Http Authentication | basic | | rTorrent username | Your username | |rTorrent password| Your rTorrent password | Now press save and test connection and you should get an error. Now change the rTorrent host:port to username.servername.bysh.me/rutorrent/plugins/httprpc/action.php and it should work the second time. ## Manually updating / Sickrage not starting If you want to manually update Sickrage or want to try to fix if it's not starting then please open a terminal via VNC or SSH. Then do the following: cd ~/apps/sickrage && git checkout master && git pull that should show some output. After that try another restart to start this latest version.
