Re: ComicTagging causes Post Processing to fail

I took a look at settings.ini and input my path to the latest version of unrar. It looks like it's wanting a path to an exe file though and I'm using the native OS X version of unrar. I configuring it like below, restarted Mylar and tried again and got the same result as before.

Code: Select all

[settings]
check_for_new_version = True
rar_exe_path = ""
unrar_exe_path = "/usr/local/Cellar/unrar/5.3.11/bin/"
send_usage_stats = False

I think you need to include the actual exe filename at the end of the unrar_exe_path field, as well as removing the quotation marks, so something like :

Code: Select all

unrar_exe_path = /usr/local/Cellar/unrar/5.3.11/bin/unrar.exe

I tried with and without quotes and it still won't work(also added the .exe file). Is there a way to issue a Mylar update with 5.3.1 baked in?

It's a possibility, but I'd need to do some various testing on the version, and tbh since I didn't write CT I'd need to figure out the best way to include the UnRAR source.

Never say never...

hi, i had the same problem with post processing. After trying some stuff that didn't work i found this thread and did two things at once.
But now it's working.
So here is what i did: I first checked my unrar version which was the right one but i deleted and reinstalled it.
Then i edited the settings.ini in the ct_settings folder like this

Code: Select all

[settings]
check_for_new_version = False
rar_exe_path = /usr/local/bin/unrar
unrar_exe_path = /usr/local/bin/unrar
send_usage_stats = False
at first i only had set the path for unrar_exe but now i set it for both and now it is working for me.

I don know what exactly did the trick, if it was reinstalling unrar or setting the path in both lines.
just give it a try maybe it's working for you too.
