Jackett reset after reboot (lost API, indexers) Topic is solved

[MichaIng]

Without a backup, the only hope is that the deleted inodes are still present. You can try testdisk to find and restore the files: https://itsfoss.com/recover-deleted-files-linux/

Use dietpi-backup 1 in a cron job, to automate it, once you set it up (without 1). You can use a script like that to have multiple backup versions.

thanks - im trying testdisk just now - where is the location the deleted files used to be?

/opt/jackett?

[MichaIng]

/opt/jackett/Jackett, if I'm not mistaken.

/opt/jackett/Jackett, if I'm not mistaken.

That's right!

I got it working:

Code: Select all

sudo mkdir -p /mnt/dietpi_userdata/Jackett ; sudo chown jackett:jackett /mnt/dietpi_userdata/Jackett
sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/jackett.service

Change Environment=XDG_CONFIG_HOME=/mnt/dietpi_userdata and ReadWritePaths=/opt/jackett /mnt /var/log/jackett /tmp
Then run

Code: Select all

sudo systemctl daemon-reload

Now it's a good time to restore from your dietpi-backup

Code: Select all

sudo cp -a /mnt/backup/dietpi-backup/data/opt/jackett/Jackett/* /mnt/dietpi_userdata/Jackett/

Finally cross fingers and start it sudo dietpi-services start jackett
The api key will still be the same.

Thanks ! It worked for me.
I also added folder "/var/log/jackett" manually and set it permissions.
