Radarr: Unable to Update Directly

Hi,

DietPi Version = v8.22.3
Radarr Version = 4.7.5.7809

I used to be able to update Radarr from the UI manually until version 4.7.5.7809.

When I try to update from the UI, I get this message:

Please advise, thanks.

hmm interesting, never have seen such message. Can you try following

dietpi-software reinstall 145

I am running 5.0.3.8127 and it was automatically updated about 10 days ago.

Indeed 5.0.3.8127 is the latest release available. Does Radarr has an automatic update feature nowadays?

I believe so, I never do any manual updates to any …arr and from what I see only Lidarr is not upgraded to the latest.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. I went ahead and tried this and still get the same behavior.

But you are on latest version available. What version you are looking for? Radarr seems to update automatically.

I’m trying to update to 5.0.3.8127. I’m currently on 4.7.5.7809. For some reason when this newest update came available, that error message popped up. 4.7.5.7809 and prior, I had no issues updating.

Can you fill the troubleshooting template?

Required

  • DietPi version | cat /boot/dietpi/.version
  • Distro version | echo $G_DISTRO_NAME $G_RASPBIAN
  • Kernel version | uname -a
  • Architecture | dpkg --print-architecture
  • SBC model | echo $G_HW_MODEL_NAME or (EG: RPi3)

I guess there was a reason not to fill on the initial report

Apologies, I thought including the latest version of Radarr and DietPi in my initial post was sufficient. Not a problem, here you go. Let me know if you need anything else:

DietPi Version:

G_DIETPI_VERSION_CORE=8
G_DIETPI_VERSION_SUB=22
G_DIETPI_VERSION_RC=3
G_GITBRANCH=‘master’
G_GITOWNER=‘MichaIng’

Distro version:

bullseye 0

Kernel Version:

Linux DietPi 6.1.21-v8+ #1642 SMP PREEMPT Mon Apr 3 17:24:16 BST 2023 aarch64 GNU/Linux

Architecture:

arm64

SBC Model:

RPi 4 Model B (aarch64)

Sometimes it’s important to know the Debian version and system architecture to be able to replicate the behaviour.

Back to your issue. Just a question, you are not using Radarr as Docker container? It’s the version installed from DietPi software?

I found a bug report at Radarr GitHub. It seems an issue with Radarr believing it’s running as Docker container Radarr thinks it's running in docker when it isn't, and disables updates · Issue #9247 · Radarr/Radarr · GitHub

Solution is to update manually this time.

systemctl stop radarr.service
mv /opt/radarr /opt/radarr_backup
cd /tmp
curl -sSfL https://github.com/Radarr/Radarr/releases/download/v5.0.3.8127/Radarr.master.5.0.3.8127.linux-core-arm64.tar.gz -o Radarr.master.5.0.3.8127.linux-core-arm64.tar.gz
tar xf Radarr.master.5.0.3.8127.linux-core-arm64.tar.gz
rm Radarr.master.5.0.3.8127.linux-core-arm64.tar.gz
mv Radarr /opt/radarr
chown -R radarr:dietpi /opt/radarr
systemctl start radarr.service

If all is running well, you can remove the backup folder afterwards

rm -Rf /opt/radarr_backup

Got it.

Correct.

Correct.

That was the issue.

Thank you for providing the detailed instructions to do this, appreciated. This worked as expected.
