Troubleshooting

Container unhealthy / won't start

  • Check docker logs nzbdav for migration or backend health failures.
  • Ensure CONFIG_PATH (/config) is writable by PUID/PGID.
  • Frontend /healthz should pass during long migrations; backend /health must eventually succeed.

WebDAV or playback fails

  • Confirm WebDAV username/password.
  • Behind a proxy: TLS, /ws Upgrade, SECURE_COOKIES, Base URL / TRUST_PROXY.
  • Overview Active Reads: unexpected traffic → rclone VFS or media-server scans.
  • Try disabling segment cache or adjusting Max Download Connections — WebDAV.

*Arr won't import

  • Paths must match exactly between NzbDAV completed path and *Arr containers.
  • Symlinks: rclone mount healthy? ls shows completed-symlinks and .ids?
  • STRM: Base URL reachable from Emby/Jellyfin?
  • Check Automatic Queue Management rules — Arrs.

addurl SSRF / private indexer since 0.8.0

Allow Docker DNS or LAN hosts under Trusted local hostsSABnzbd API.

Why did files disappear?

See Deletion audit — history retention ≠ deleting mounts; orphan cleanup and *Arr actions can remove content.

Provider / missing articles

  • Circuit breaker may pause a bad provider — check Usenet settings and Overview.
  • Storage groups skip sibling resellers after a miss — only group identical upstream storage.
  • Health/repairs can replace unhealthy library items — Health and repairs.
