SickRage stops after GIT update

[DavidJares]

Hello @BenjV ,

first of all, thanks a million for this fix. It really helped me a lot, however, I noticed from time to time that this package stopped working for no reason. Everything was clear after last GIT update. Once I update my GIT, this package stops and it is impossible to start it again. Only thing I can do is uninstall and install again. May I kindly ask you for your help?

Thank you!

I am also suffering from this at the moment, have to grab the backup files manually and then uninstall reinstall then copy files back over if the server is rebooted (or a power out which has happened a few times in the last week) Any logs we can send you to assist?

[BenjV]

I will see what I can do. I myself don't have any problems at all and I also update git.

For reference I don't know whether it was git or upgrading to 6.1.5-15254 the two were done very close together, but it was not until I the server rebooted that sickrage wouldn't restart.

Had the same issue (or so I thought). I noticed it after a reboot: Sickrage didn't start automatically, and I couldn't start it from the Synology web interface. I played with synopkgctl a bit and finally found the cause of the problem for me: the PID file wasn't deleted after the reboot... Which prevented Sickrage from restarting. Deleted it by hand, and boom it works...

hello... i had to reboot the nas because an unrelated problem and then the package won't start unistall install fix the issue but latter I found somewhere in the logs:

2018/08/09 13:10:02     start sickrage 99999999 Begin start-stop-status start
PID file: /var/packages/sickrage/target/var/sickrage.pid already exists. Exiting.

Normally the pidfile is removed when a package is stopped. When you do something like a hard reboot or lose power the pidfile is not removed. It is a little flaw in the package script. Solution is to delete the pidfile yourself.

If it bother you uninstall the package and then use sickbeard-custom from the SynoCommunity and replace the sickbeard with sickrage when ask for the fork.. The SynoCommunity packages are now supporting DSM 6

Hey @BenjV , thanks for your comment. What shoud i Write into the sickbeard custom? Nozhing seems to work :( Thank you.
