Failed to create excludes

Post by jannis »

I have a new system set up with deluge calling filebot, and I was struggling to understand why it wasn't sorting files. In the log, it shows that filebot is being called in the correct way and Deluge is doing its job, but the script is failing at something called excludes. Here is my system information

Code: Select all

FileBot 4.7.2 (r4178)
JNA Native: 4.0.1
MediaInfo: MediaInfoLib - v0.7.69
7-Zip-JBinding: 9.20
Chromaprint: fpcalc version 1.1.0 (/usr/share/filebot/fpcalc)
Extended Attributes: OK
GVFS: OK
Groovy Engine: 2.4.7
JRE: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.8.0_101 (headless)
JVM: 64-bit Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM
CPU/MEM: 1 Core / 893 MB Max Memory / 12 MB Used Memory
OS: Linux (amd64)
Package: DEB
Data: /home/joe/.filebot
uname: Linux JoesMediaCentre 4.4.0-36-generic #55-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 11 18:01:55 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Done ヾ(@⌒ー⌒@)ノ

And here is the output of my log file

Code: Select all

The amc script requires full read+write access for the exclude list file. If Deluge runs as separate user, then this user doesn't have permission to access your users Downloads folder.

You can run Deluge as your user, or set the exclude list to somewhere where the Deluge user as access, or change the Download folder permissions.

Hi rednoah,

Thanks for the reply. I've made sure that Deluge is not running as a separate user, and I've checked the permissions on my download folders and they're all set so that Deluge should be able to read and write. I'm still getting an exclude list error though. Any more ideas?

Thanks

It's definitely a filesystem permission issue. Even if you disable the exclude list it'll just crash a bit later when moving or copying files.

Try using a different --output folder.
