Strange, its available in there repo. Is this file in /opt/jellyseer?

Can you try again in 10min?

[pdsrebelo]

Was it because of this change 4b8e1e9 ?

Is this file in /opt/jellyseer?

Do you mean if this folder exists in the Jellyseer LXC?

Can you try again in 10min?

Yes, of course, tell me when :)

[MickLesk]

No its an try, If this Work - If yes, i have an idea for tomorrow. Try it

[pdsrebelo]

Ran again the command bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/community-scripts/ProxmoxVE/main/ct/jellyseerr.sh)"
and had the same result:

[MickLesk]

pct enter LXCid and then cd /opt/jellyseer & ls -la

[BostonZero]

This also seems to break existing installations, the service won't start after running the script to update an existing lxc. Confirming I also see the same problem when I make from scratch too

[MickLesk]

Then its an Repo Thing and Not an Script Thing -> jellyseer

[pdsrebelo]

pct enter LXCid and then cd /opt/jellyseer & ls -la

Yep, for me the Jellyseer web service is down as well, as the installation aborted in the middle.

@MickLesk: Then its an Repo Thing and Not an Script Thing -> jellyseer

Were you able to reproduce the problem on your end? i.e.: fresh install of Jellyseer?

[pdsrebelo]

I was checking again the error: ERR_PNPM_NO_PKG_MANIFEST  No package.json found in /opt

It seems that it's trying to find the file package.json inside the folder /opt, which is weird as that folder only contains the folder jellyseerand nothing else 🤔

That file indeed exists, but under /opt/jellyseer/package.json as you can see on one of the posts above.

[MickLesk]

You can try again in 5-10min. I pushed an blind fix, but its Strange that he lost the path

[pdsrebelo]

Not sure if it's getting better or worse 😅

[pdsrebelo]

Ah, you made a typo on your last commit. it should be cd /opt/jellyseerr, not cd /opt/jellyseer
