Jackett installation

That’s unusual, since I literally copied from the latest QB jackett install script.

You can now either try the install script again, or continue the rest of the commands manually: https://github.com/QuickBox/QB/blob/master/packages/package/install/installpackage-jackett

Quite odd indeed.

I tried running “sudo box install jackett” again and it said it was already installed, but it isn’t. So I did box remove jackett and then tried to re-do the installation and I still receive the original error.

I was trying to manually install it but have no idea what ${local_setup} or other references mean. :worried:

Is it possible my Quickbox needs updated?

What version are you on @Pingu858?

V2.4.8 and BASH 4.3

Yup, you are a bit outdated as the new source is on v2.5 and located here:

If you need any help updating this to the new Repo, don’t hesitate to shoot me a PM.

Aha that fixed the issue! Now Jackett is installed first try using box install, thank you guys! :slight_smile:

A little note on the box upgrade guide, I had to type “rm -rf /etc/QuickBox” instead of “rm -rf QuickBox” for it to work.

Thanks again. :slight_smile:

just did a super fresh ubuntu install and getting:

thebox:~# box install jackett
Installing jackett

Heya @Globber

Could you tell me if the .config directory exists at /home/globber/. If not, try to create the mkdir -p /home/globber/.config directory and assign it chmod 700 /home/globber/.config permissions and then try the install once more. Also, make sure it’s owned by your user chown -R globber:globber /home/globber/.config

ahh yeah the dir is there but owned by Root - should have seen that…changed ownership and the install goes like a charm!

Thanks a lot…

I added a commit that will make sure that /home/$username/.config/Jackett folder has the right permissions upon install. This should fix issues for any other users that have seen this issue.

Are you on the latest version of QB?

Yes, i install box yesterday after a full wipe of my server.
i’m on debian 8
Thanks

Ooh. We no longer support Debian :frowning:

Ok, what did you support? ubuntu 14.04?
Thanks

Officially, Ubuntu 15.10 and 16.04. You can check details here: https://github.com/QuickBox/QB/blob/master/README.md

Tommorow i will make a fresh install with ubuntu 15.10 and test Jackett installation.
Thank you.

I would suggest 16.04 if possible! That is the long term support release. It will be supported by Ubuntu for 5 years.
