Bazarr remains inactive (even after clean install)

Troubleshooting
1

I’m using DietPi (5.15.32-v8+) on a Raspberry Pi 3b+. I installed bazarr with dietpi-software, but I can’t access the web interface, and in the dietpi-services it says bazarr is inactive. I tried to restart and reinstall the app but the issue remains.

Pls could you restart your system and post following afterwards

Pls install unrar from dietpi-software. This should solve it.

It worked, thank you so much!

Yes, it’s a workaround for the time being until Bazarr 1.1.1 has been released. We submit a fix to Bazarr guys, but it will be merged on next release only.
