[Bug]: Fresh Installation of the docker image fails to launch

[AN1MATEK]

Describe the Bug

After installing the docker image and initializing the configuration file, the main script seems to meet a critical error. It calls an internal function.

Ive tried many, but let's say v3.6.2

What branch are you on?

master

You need to either populate the notifiarr and webhook sections or comment them out. They cannot be left blank

[AN1MATEK]

If I commend webhooks:, it get auto-added on the next run. The error is the same.

...
#apprise:
#notifiarr:
#webhooks:
#bhd:
...

webhooks:

  run_end:
  function:
    cross_seed:
    recheck:

    tag_update:
    rem_unregistered:
    tag_tracker_error:
    rem_orphaned:
    tag_nohardlinks:
    cleanup_dirs:

Probably I should add that yesterday I was already with this topic in discord and couldn't get to a solution. Not that it helps a lot though.

[bobokun]

I can't seem to replicate this issue... I've tried removing everything. Yes it does populate webhooks with blank values but that shouldn't give any error.

Also your logs are not readable.

I've added additional error checking in develop branch. Please send me logs after you run the develop branhc

[AN1MATEK]

Hello bobokun,

Thank you for your time and effort. I actually did get it to work last week, but then I wasn't near my PC the whole weekend to report back.

It seems that the issue was a combination of many small errors. Changes I made:

• Changed max_seeding_time: 28.800 to max_seeding_time: 28800
• Added all my categories under cat:
• apprise:, notifiarr: and bhd: should not be left blank but should be commented out completely/deleted. I get the exact same error when they are there.
• I use http://10.1.1.5:8180 instead of just 10.1.1.5:8180.

For showing appreciation on your time, I went back and pasted this old config and used the develop branch. It points to the categories thing:

It seems that the problem is solved. It is nice to see that thanks to this extra error-checking, other people will have an easier time. Huge thanks to all of you, but special thanks to bobokun :)

| Config Error: Category AutoDL is defined under nohardlinks attribute |

presumably had a category in noHL that was not in your category list in the config
