I’m running my arr stack on Unraid. I set it up using a combination of Trash’s guide and Ibracorp’s video (linked in same article). Everything had been working well. I believe I made some changes to Qbittorrent’s handling of completed torrents, but I honestly don’t recall. I’ve learned my lesson in that regard and am carefully documenting my various self-hosting adventures now.

The issue is when either Radarr or Lidarr download something new, it creates a subfolder called Radarr or Lidarr, then has the new movie/album inside the applicable folder by itself. As a result none of the hardlinks or mover tasks work properly. Sonarr, on the other hand works fine. Does anyone have any ideas on what I could check or change to fix this? So far all my research shows complaints of either app creating its own subfolder per movie or album rather than a new folder named after the app.

Here’s an example of radarr having it’s own folder created after I deleted it, then queued up a new download. It makes a new ‘radarr’ folder and puts the finished download in it, instead of ‘movies’:

    That makes sense, thanks again. Looks like I just didn’t wait long enough. It is doing as you described on my test files.
