hmm these 2 folders did not exist on your system. But they are part of standard installation. This is from a test install
```auto

Was this a new install?

Yes. But I can uninstall, clear everything on that folder and reinstall. Do you think it can work?

hopefully. After uninstall, reboot your system. Usually the whole folder `/mnt/dietpi_userdata/sonarr/` should be gone afterwards

Indeed, the folder was removed.
I’ll finish another job and then try to reinstall Sonarr from dietpi-software.
Or should I try manually? I really don’t mind…

pls use our install script. There should be no need to do thinks manually. If the folder still missing afterwards, something wrong with the Sonarr own package (we don’t maintain). This we can check once you tried to install again.

ok the problem seems to be with the `dietpi_userdata` directory. You are missing the write permission for `dietpi` group. Did you removed it?
You would need to set it again
```auto
chmod 775 /mnt/dietpi_userdata/
systemctl start sonarr.service
systemctl status sonarr.service
```

No, I did not remove it. But I did move after installation. I took some time to realize that I may need more space in user’s folder. So after system installation I decided to move the userspace and use the tool provided for that.
About your suggestions, here is the result from status command:
```auto
