With the trouble on synology I decided to make a windows install and still use my disk station for storage. I got it installed and all but I can not access my mapped drives? I don't use a password for this windows computer. I have looked around a bunch and can't seem to get a solution. I used the windows installer package.

Thanks for any help

Hey I was wondering if you found a solution for this, currently experiencing the same issues now.

Windows services cannot access mapped drives. So, you can either run SR as a regular (non-service) application under your user account after logging in, or, what I would do, is just use UNC (\server\share) style paths.

ive tried UNC style paths, it still wont find my mapped network drive, how do i run it as a non service application?

thanks

Same problem here, can't access to mapped drives and can't access to network folder with \192.168.1.51\Show for example

I have the same problem, so i don't use the sickrage service and load the sickrage via a command. For exemple, this is mine: "C:\SickRage\SickRage\SickBeard.py" --nolaunch --port=8081 --datadir="C:\SickRage\Data"

and in my c:\SickRage\Data\config.ini I modify 2 lines to specify my network drives:

root_dirs = 0|\192.168.1.85\seriesTV tv_download_dir = \192.168.1.85\transmission\telechargements

and it's ok for me.

I wasted 8 hours on this crap, and thought I would add what I did to fix it. Info: I used the installer several months ago(2-3) and had never shutdown my sickrage, that is until yesterday. Upon trying to restart my sickrage by restarting my computer the service would load and say running but my sickrage wouldn't have a webui. This is where I lost most of my time. After running sickrage in cmd I realized that unrar.exe installation was stopping my sickrage from continuing in startup and wouldn't proceed. So long story short I-

Installed unrar to data/unrar/ opened config file in data and changed the unrar path to the new installed unrar in data dir. restarted my sickrage service.

Everything now works.

I realize this topic is almost 1 year old but for some reason this just happend to me. The answer to my problem came from this thread, so thanks for that.

I am having an issue with my GUI not loading and this did not fix it. It worked fine until yesterday. Was there another update that broke it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
