"No files selected for processing" even though there are new files

Post by Wasabi »

I've bought a license and am using the latest 4.9.3 version instead of my seedbox's included older filebot version. Before with the older version, I've been using the follow command and it'll work flawlessly:

Code: Select all

filebot -script fn:amc --output "$HOME/media" --action move -non-strict "$HOME/files" --log-file amc.log --def excludeList=amc.txt
Now running the same command with the newer version, it'll just give me a "No files selected for processing" even though there are new files sitting in the "home/redacted/files" directory and they're not on the exclude list either:

Code: Select all

Run script [fn:amc] at [Fri Jul 30 00:22:42 CEST 2021]
Parameter: excludeList = amc.txt
Argument[0]: /home/redacted/files
Use excludes: /home32/redacted/media/amc.txt (246)
Ignore hidden: /home/redacted/files/.gitkeep
No files selected for processing
Done ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Here's my filebot sysinfo:

I'd start by creating a separate test case, make sure you have a base test case that works to start testing from, and then figure out what's different in your production use case.

Based on the log above, the most likely explanation is either permissions (e.g. sub folders with restrictive permissions will appear empty) or the exclude list. I'd do a test run without --def excludeList just to confirm the assumption that the latter is indeed not the cause.
