Perform read-write check for move imports prior to initiating move imports, or don't delete successful copy about sonarr HOT 6 CLOSED

Why are you reporting this like a bug, but using the feature request template?
Edit this issue and provide the information from the bug template, environment, version, trace logs.

Perform a manual import from source dir, set it to "Move" and import

Sonarr did what you told it to. If the source is read-only, don't tell Sonarr to move the file.

Note that both the existing episode and the newly copied one are deleted at the destination when the move fails.

Please provide trace logs, but sounds like this was a "move" across volumes, which is treated as a copy + delete, when that fails it rolls back the import.

@markus101 because I believed it was working as is intended, unless you are saying it's supposed to restore the file it deleted that it's replacing?

from sonarr.

No, it is not supposed to restore the file it deleted.

No, it is not supposed to restore the file it deleted.

So am I incorrect that this would be a feature request vs a bug?

from sonarr.

As a feature request, we're not going to test whether the source of an import is read-only as it can incorrectly fail and would cause other issues. If you're importing from a read-only file system expect errors trying to move files.

As a bug I'm interested in why we're copying a file then failing later (presumably deleting the file). We'll reopen if adequate information can be pulled from the logs.

I see what you mean. I think it's because in a move the delete doesn't happen until the data is copied. Thanks for explaining. Makes sense.
