I have just installed the CouchPotato app from the app store. The install seemed to go fine but when i go to the web address couchpotato.home.com I get the following message:

{"success": false, "error": "Failed returning results"}

I have checked the install log and there are no problems.

The couch potato server doesnt appear to be running. I have tried to restart it with the web interface but it doesnt work. I have run:

Code: Select all

systemctl status couchpotato -l
● couchpotato.service - CouchPotato server

I'm not really sure what to try or look at next. Can anyone advise?

Running the command to start from the command line gives the following.

Please provide the URL for the following:

Code: Select all

fpaste --sysinfo

This will help us assist you with your issue.

Also check /var/log/amahi-app-installer.log for errors.

We tried to help diagnose what was up with this situation in IRC. Something was unusual. I asked this:

Code: Select all

ps guax | grep couch

because it seemed that there was some instance running that caused the bind to the port to fail because it was in use already.

However, we got disconnected or something. The fpaste may not help a lot, however, it's good the have it. The app install log may show errors, which could be significant to this case.

Code: Select all

ps guax | grep couch

Hallo, I had to go to a meeting but when I finished I did run the above and it did appear that an instance was already running, but I still couldn't access the web interface.

I killed the process that was running and restarted the service from the amahi web interface and I was able to access couch potato. So, all is working well now. I've tried uninstalling the app and reinstalling but I can't replicate the error.
