The following apps are companions to the *Arr Suite of Applications or media hoarding in general. They are not maintained, developed, nor supported by the *Arr Development Team. Please direct any specific support questions to the respective application development team.
¶ Recovering a Corrupt DB
Note that the application's database can be found in the Application Data Directory which are linked below. The directory may also be passed as a datadir argument.
- Lidarr Appdata Directory
- Prowlarr Appdata Directory
- Radarr Appdata Directory
- Readarr Appdata Directory
- Sonarr Appdata Directory
There are two options to recover the database which are listed below.
¶ Recovering a Corrupt DB (UI) (Windows)
Note this effectively does the same as
.recoverwhich requires Sqlite v3.29 | Please refer to the Sqlite docs for more details on the.recovercommand. The steps to do so are linked below
DB Browser for SQLite (DB4S) is a high quality, visual, open source tool to create, design, and edit database files compatible with SQLite. DB4S is for users and developers who want to create, search, and edit databases. DB4S uses a familiar spreadsheet-like interface, and complicated SQL commands do not have to be learned.
- Stop the application
- Make a copy of your corrupt database (
.db) and copy any.shmand.walfiles with it - Open your corrupt database in DB Browser for SQLite (DB4S)
- File => Export => Export database to SQL file
- Select all tables
- Check/Enable "Keep column names in INSERT INTO"
- Export Everything
- Overwrite old schema
- Save
- Close the database
- New Database => File => Import => import that file from the previous export step
- Any import errors or constraint issues, clean up the problematic insert statement if possible or delete it
- Execute the following SQL
VACUUM; - Save the database when prompted.
- Tools => Integrity Check; the result should say OK
- Close the database
- Remove all
wal,shm, anddbfiles from the config folder - Save (or copy, if *Arr is not on the same system as DB4S) the new database in the config folder and point the application at it. All *Arrs name their database as
<appname>.dbe.g.radarr.db - Correct permissions for the recovered database if needed. The owner should be the user and group *Arr is configured to run as.
- Start the application
Please note that the gif does not cover the VACUUM; command
¶ Command Line DB Recovery
The below instructions are for *Nix Operating Systems, but the concept will be similar on Windows Command Line.
This uses the sqlite3
.recovercommand is ideal. Note that it requires Sqlite 3.29+
Given sqlite3 is required by *Arrs it is assumed you have sqlite3 installed on your system
- Stop the application
- SSH into your box or otherwise get a shell up
- Enter
sqlite3 <path to bad database> ".recover" | sqlite3 <output path for recovered database> - Correct permissions for the recovered database if needed. The owner should be the user and group *Arr is configured to run as.
- Remove or move/rename the old corrupt database and any
walorshmin the folder - Rename the covered database. All *Arrs name their database as
<appname>.dbe.g.radarr.db - Start the application
¶ Finding Cookies
- Some sites cannot be logged into automatically and require you to login manually then give the cookies to to work. The pages below describe how you do that.
¶ General Instructions
- Login to the Web Site with your browser using the Site Link address you have chosen to use from the Prowlarr indexer config
- Open the DevTools panel by pressing F12
- Select the Network tab
- Click on the Doc button (Chrome Browser) or HTML button (Firefox Browser)
- Refresh the page by pressing F5
- Click on the first row entry
- Select the Headers tab on the right panel
- Find 'cookie:' in the Request Headers section. Refer to the helptext within the UI for your tracker for details
- Select and Copy the whole cookie string (everything after the cookie: )
- Delete anything already in the Prowlarr indexer config cookie box
- Paste your copied cookie string to that box
- Click Save
If user agent is required for your tracker, it can be found in the Request Headers
¶ Notes
- Be sure to use the Browser from the same machine that is running Prowlarr, as cookies will rarely work from other platforms.
- On the login page for the Web site do not tick any options that restrict your session to one IP address, or logout after a short time. If there is a Remember me option, use it.
- Make sure that before fetching the cookie you can access the Site's torrent search page, as anything the site does to prevent this (alerts, unread notices or unread PM, or a low ratio warning) will stop Prowlarr from having a successful test after using the cookie.
¶ Chrome
-
Go to the torrent tracker website and log in.
-
Hit F12
-
Under the Application tab at the top, there will be "Storage" on the left side. You will see a "Cookies" subsection, and under that you will see your tracker's url. Click on that.
-
Click on "Pass" on that tab or a similar entry, and it will pop up a box that says "Cookie Value" with a string about 25-30 chars long. Copy that and paste it into the application that needs it.
- If the string looks similar to
cid=cid-that-you-got-from-the-browser; sid=sid-that-you-got-from-the-browserthen the entire entry should be used.
- If the string looks similar to
- You may also reference Chrome's documents Chrome cookies

edge://settings/siteData - Enter the site (or app) name you wish to clear
- Click the arrow for the site
- Click the trash icon for the site
¶ Using Environment Variables for Config
All of the *arrs now have the ability to use environment variables to override entries in config.xml. The pattern for variable naming is predictable and can be used to set any config entry. In general the environment variables are comprised of 3 parts, delimited by two underscores.
APPNAME__CONFIGNAMESPACE__CONFIGITEM
The app name that should be used is simply the app name that the environment variable is passed to: RADARR, SONARR, PROWLARR, etc.
The config namespaces are currently predictable and shared between all apps. It is simply the option types for the options files in the project, located in the src/NzbDrone.Common/Options directory. The namespaces are currently:
- APP
- AUTH
- LOG
- POSTGRES
- SERVER
- UPDATE
Each of these options namespaces has several config items below it. Below you can find the entire directory for each. You must replace *ARR with whatever *arr app you are setting up. These have not all been tested and may be wrong.
