Arch Linux User Repository

After installing, to migrate your plexpy config and db, run the following commands:

sudo mv /var/lib/plexpy/* /var/lib/tautulli/"
sudo sed 's#\/var\/lib\/plexpy#\/var\/lib\/tautulli#g' -i /var/lib/tautulli/config.ini
sudo chown -R tautulli: /var/lib/tautulli

@fryfog don't worry, problem of the VPS default installation. The /etc/timezone was empty. Sorry!

A quick Google suggests pytz is needed and it turns out I have it installed, so I added it as a depends. Give it a try? I didn't bump the pkgrel though.

Not starting on Clean Arch installation:

@mralext20: Added based on blind faith, thanks for reporting! :)

This needs to depend on python2-setuptools.

Double confirmed, I just installed and start this on a server that didn't have it and it is fine. Sounds like maybe you had an issue during install and that file got missed?

Hi @carlf,

I've just set up a new arch container and it installs and runs just fine with the current version: https://pastebin.com/nSK7dCCD

The ExecStart differs as Arch is using python3 as default and the config files are reorganized to a different location so that the packet can be upgraded easily.

And the only index.html I see in the source is data/interfaces/default/index.html which makes its way to /usr/lib/tautulli/data/interfaces/default/index.html just fine.

@carlf, I'll have a look and try a clean install on another system. But I think you're having trouble understanding something if you think the startup command is very different.

All their examples use python to run their program, some of them directly and some indirectly. Which is exactly what ours does too. Their install instruction just have you running python Tautulli.py which is essentially what our systemd unit file does, just w/ more options and pointed at python2. Their systemd unit file is similar, but runs the script directly which will depend on the #! at the top which tells it to run python.

Knowing more about the error you saw and where would be super helpful.

I think this package is broken. On clean install, I get an error about not finding the template for index.html. Running per the installation instructions in github, it works fine. The command for starting looks very different in the unit file than it does in the installation instructions.
