[Request] Ability to set "webroot" about sickbeard.bundle HOT 11 CLOSED

I'm planning a pretty big overhaul to implement the SickBeard API. No ETA currently. I might be able to include your request but, I don't think I quite understand what you're asking for. I'm not familiar with running/using Apache proxies. I'm not sure what you mean by setting "web root". I assume you need to be able to modify how the http requests are sent to sickbeard. Can you elaborate a little more?

from sickbeard.bundle.

Webroot is a setting in the config that allows you to change the root of the url in the path. For instance say SickBeard runs on localhost:8081 but I want it to run with my other web applications on port 80. I can't just ProxyPass port 8081 to the /sickbeard in my Apache virtual host, things won't load properly. If I set the webroot setting then SickBeard now runs on localhost:8081/sickbeard and proxying that into /sickbeard directory on the Apache virtual host now works properly on port 80 with a url of http://localhost/sickbeard

Essentially if the app would just let me specify more URL past the port number it should work. I know I am probably doing a terrible job at describing this, but here is the info on it in the SickBeard readme: http://code.google.com/p/sickbeard/wiki/AdvancedSettings

Have you tried entering more info after the port number in the port field in plugin prefs? The port pref just takes a text string which isn't limited to just numeric digits and there's no (practical) limit on the number of characters. I can't see any reason why it wouldn't work.

I am almost certain I tried that already and it didn't work but I will try again just to be sure and report back.

from sickbeard.bundle.

Ya, I tried it again, same result.

Interesting. So to be clear: the plugin pref accepts the string data following the port number in the port field but, it fails to work as desired. Is that right? I should have mentioned that it's best to restart the Plex desktop client after entering/changing prefs. There's a bug in the 0.9.5.x(Laika) series which prevents prefs from being properly reloaded after closing the prefs window. If you did restart the client, and the problem persists, can you upload a plugin log for me to debug?

from sickbeard.bundle.

Certainly. I will test it again with restarting the client after making the changes. Should I restart the server as well? Also can you tell me where I can find that plugin log (OS X Laika)? Thanks again!

from sickbeard.bundle.

It shouldn't be necessary to restart the server but it can't hurt. The plugin log is located in "~/Library/Logs/PMS Plugin Logs/com.plexapp.plugins.sickbeard.log". There will also be logs with numbers 1-5 added on the end. Probably a good idea to add them all to a zip file and upload it where-ever it's convenient.

from sickbeard.bundle.

Any luck with those logs? The code overhaul is moving along well and I'd appreciate some input on this before I finalize the handling.

from sickbeard.bundle.

Sorry about the delay in getting back to you Mike, I have been very busy lately. I tried it again by just entering /sickbeard after the port number and restarted the client and it's working now! I assume I was likely running into that bug in Laika more then anything.

from sickbeard.bundle.

No worries. I added an extra Preference for the "webroot" to make it more obvious for others in the same situation. So if/when you update, you may want to change your plugin prefs.
