Providing a redacted config.yml file

You have been asked to provide your config file, which will allow us to support you further.

Please DO NOT share your config.yml file as is without redacting it. It contains information that you do not want the public to have, nor do we need it to troubleshoot your scenario in MOST cases.

We will use a regex parser to redact the file for you.

:one: Goto https://regex101.com/r/DMo1DQ/latest
:two: Copy the contents of your config.yml to the TEST STRING box in that page
:three: The results will be immediate and found in the SUBSTITUTION box below
:four: From the SUBSTITUTION box, select all, then copy and paste the redacted text into the channel where you want to share your config. (You will see (redacted) where confidential information was replaced)

Consider using Discord code blocks when sharing small parts of your config file. Check out !code for more info on code blocks

Thanks for using PMM

an initial error looks like you are trying to use mass update with mdb, but have not configured mdblist api

dire kernel
#

Will that prevent it from running? I’ve had it run before without having Animedb configured. Have no idea where to get the mdb api 🤣

ocean anvil
#

Not sure if it’d stop it from running but your config is specifically trying to access it but can’t, commenting out those 2 lines will stop it trying to access it at least

#

Create an account at mdblist to generate an api

dire kernel
#

Thanks guys. I’ll try create the account first and if that doesn’t work I’ll try remove it from the config. I haven’t really used pmm in a while and it seems like a lot of features have been added.

They have 😅 there’s also been a tonne of updates to nightly so there’s every chance something in the defaults doesn’t work on latest anymore, in which case updating to nightly would fix it 🙂

dire kernel
#

so im just getting the error "Config Error: No Paths Found for metadata_path" here is an example of what i am using -libraries:
Films:
metadata_path:
- pmm: separator_award # An "index card"
- pmm: bafta # BAFTA Awards
template_variables: # based on when the award show started
data:
starting: 2014
ending: current_year
- pmm: cannes # Cannes Film Fstical Awards
template_variables: # based on when the award show started
data:
starting: 2016
ending: current_year

Are you running on nightly?

#

The error suggests you are not, - pmm: paths are only supported on nightly right now

#

Can you provide your log file if you think you are on nightly

dire kernel
#

that would probably be the case so. It may be easy to find but would you mind telling me how i would go about running on nightly?

How do you normally run PMM?

Moving between branches of PMM

NOTE: This is addressing changing from, for instance, latest to nightly.

The method depends on how you installed it.

I'm using docker locally:

docker pull meisnate12/plex-meta-manager:TAG_HERE

replace TAG_HERE with latest, develop, or nightly; whichever you want to switch to.

Then recreate your container via whatever means you used to create it [docker run, docker-compose, etc.], setting the image as meisnate12/plex-meta-manager:TAG_HERE

I'm using docker on a NAS or some other context without a command prompt:

The same concepts as above will apply:
:one: pull new image
:two: recreate container using that image instead of the current one.

Whatever the system, there will be a way to accpomplish these two things.

I'm running locally and retrieved the code via git:

cd DIRECTORY_WHERE_YOU_PUT_PMM
git checkout BRANCH_NAME
git stash
git stash clear
git pull

For BRANCH_NAME, substitute master, develop, or nightly

Those stash commands are going to discard any changes you may have made to PMM's own files. If that's a concern, you are probably familiar enough with git to know what you need to do instead.

In docker. would i be right in saying i pull the developer version rather than latest?

burnt umbra
#

no

#

to run nightly, you'd specify nightly

dire kernel
#

oh never mind just read that message and i pull nightly

lunar spire
#

what is your run command?

dire kernel
lunar spire
#

is this unraid?

dire kernel
#

no just running docker on windows

lunar spire
#

cool

#

Normally the run command for windows is something like:

docker run --rm -it -v "/Users/mroche/plex-meta-manager/config:/config:rw" meisnate12/plex-meta-manager --run

#

Can you provide your log file anyway

#
Providing Log Files

You have been asked to provide your log file, which will allow us to support you further.

You can find your meta.log file within the logs folder of your Plex Meta Manager config folder [right next to config.yml].

You can drag-and-drop your meta.log file directly into Discord, you do not need to upload it to a third-party site unless it exceeds the 50mb size limit.

Please DO NOT manually extract, copy and paste text from your log files directly into Discord as the formatting can be difficult to read and can often redact parts of the log file that are important for full context.

i think thats the one

lunar spire
#

That log isn't running nightly

#

[INFO] | Version: 1.17.3

#

That would say something like Version: 1.17.3-develop186 if it was running on nightly

dire kernel
#

I'm going to pull the image again with the nightly tag and see if that helps

lunar spire
#

okidoki 🙂

dire kernel
#

no when i do that now the container just runs and exits straight away

#

bingo i think i have it now. i deleted everything and just tried to run the image with the tag and then it downloaded it for me and automatically ran it.

#

Thanks for all the help guys 👌
