How can I get mylar to stop moving my files around?

Post by Brooklyn11218 »

Hi,

I just installed Mylar and set it up. I added Amazing Spider-Man v4 just to test it out. I had post processing on and the program scanned my comics directory but mis-identified the volumes and moved some files from volumes 1, 2, and 3, in to the volume 4 directory and renamed them. I turned post-processing off, renamed all the files manually and put them back in their correct directories, then restarted Mylar. As soon as it booted, it began moving and renaming all my files again.

How do I set it up so that it doesn't do any moving, or renaming of files, unless I manually click the rename button?

For reference here are screenshots of my settings screens:

thanks!

Edit: Here is my manage settings also. You can see that move items iss unchecked.

Mylar should only be moving files based on what the options enabled offer - so in your case it really shouldn't be moving anything because you have the option unchecked.
Post-processing also has zero effect on an import - the rename files/folder fields however obviously do, but enabling/disabling post-processing and even meta-tagging don't occur within the import sequence.

However, I'm going to guess that you're importing from the same location where you put your Comic Location path within the GUI. In doing so, you create a never-ending loop of problems as when Mylar goes to rename/import it tries to move the files back onto itself and then can't find it, or finds it but because it's either in use or renamed to something else already it tries to keep on doing it. The ideal situation in this case is to have your Comic Location different from the import folder, even if it's a subfolder to allow for just moving from point a to point b. But from what I can recall (it's been awhile since I looked at that particular part of the code), if the file doesn't exist in the series folder location it would mark it as Archived and the pointer would point to the original file. But, if the file exists already in that location, then the status should be changed to Downloaded and then it tracks it as it normally would.

One other thing to note, when mylar does an import or scans files to see what they are, if it's a multi-volume series the volume has to be indicated in the filename somewhere. If Mylar can't detect/find a volume it assumes it's a v1. So here's the question I guess I really need to ask - what are your filenames named as, and are they distinguished at the filename level as being a v4 issue, and not just at the folder level ?

My file naming scheme is as follows: Comics/Publisher/Series volume (year)/series volume issue year. Example filenames: The Amazing Spider-Man v4 001 (2015).cbr and The Amazing Spider-Man v1 001 (1963).cbr

So it should be picking up on the volumes but it isn't. You kind of lost me with the explanation of the loop but I think that might be the issue. Right now I have my import folder set to D:/My Documents/Comics/ and then inside that I have all my comics sorted as described above. Would it help if I set the import folder to D:/My Docs/Comics Temp/ and then enabled the move option so it could be moved to D:/My Docs/Comics/?

Well, there's nothing wrong the filename themselves - in fact, that's the ideal way to do it so that Mylar can gather as much info as possible from the filenames themselves.

And yes, separating the import folder from the comic location folder is a good option - at least then it'll take out the possibility of something else occurring during the import. What you can do to help in these situations is to start Mylar with the -v switch on startup (or if it's already running - clear the logs via the Log tab in the GUI, and then click on the 'Toggle Debug Log' option to enable verbose/debug mode. Then run the import again, either the original way you did it or the way we just discussed and get the log file. Then paste the log so that I can see what's actually happening under the hood and then we can go more from there, as there are lots of elements that come into play when importing.

Ok so I decided to start completely fresh. I shut down mylar, deleted the folder, redownloaded the master and unzipped again. Then I moved all my comics into a temp folder so that the program was only dealing with the empty Comics folder and the Spider-Man v4 that was in the scan directory. I tried to leave as many settings as possible default. When I first opened, it was on an unknown version, so I updated. Then I set up the options and restarted. Then I cleared the logs and enabled debug mode. Then I tried to do a scan. I was given an error that the scan could not be complete and to check the logs. Below are some screen shots and the full log (275 lines).

Re: How can I get mylar to stop moving my files around?

Post by evilhero »

I think I might know what's occurring - but I'm currently looking at this right now.

One quick Q tho - does The Amazing Spider-Man v4 001 (2015).cbz contain metadata (either the comicinfo.xml within the zip, or in the zip comment field) ?

Re: How can I get mylar to stop moving my files around?

Post by evilhero »

Alright now we're getting somewhere...

After trying repeatedly on my nix machine, with cbr/cbz with no metadata/cbz with metadata/cbr renamed to cbz - couldn't get it to fail at all.

Then loaded up my windows, and tried - viola! same error! So off I went looking, and found...

A very, very stupid reference to a linux binary that's only available on non-windows machines. But it only triggers when there's a cbz and no metadata within, so for some reason I never came across it before. Regardless, I know what the problem is and how I can fix it (ie. simple fix is to just ignore anything that's a cbz with no ComicInfo.xml, but there are those that use the comments of the zip to store metadata) - so I'll try and get a fix out shortly to account for this, and I'll test it against my windows machine first to ensure that things aren't broken after ;)

Thanks for delving into this with me, and for providing all the necessary screenshots and information required! Saved me a lot of time in searching / testing in order to figure things out.

Ok, tested against both my nix machine and my windows machine - ran through every combination of cbr/cbz I could think of (in relation to getting through without errors), and couldn't error them. So that's good. Now the real test - releasing it to the open!

Fix is live in development commit 3c36d33 now, so give it a try and let me know if it's working or not for you. I fixed a couple other errors I came across when I was fixing this, most notably a graceful error catching if it fails on metadata retrieval, and I removed the first page extraction process since it's not used during an import sequence. Hopefully this helps get the job done for ya ;)
