can't get it to work

[edgeball]

The installation went fine but when I run a manual scan, nothing happens. What am I doing wrong?

here my shell:

#plex-nfs-watchdog --scan --paths /Plex/MOVIES/ --host http://localhost:32400 --token MYTOKEN
INFO:   Found Plex configuration from cache: /root/.local/share/plex_nfs_watchdog_cache/plex_config.json
INFO:   Connected to Plex server

INFO:   Requesting Plex to scan remote path /Plex/MOVIES

What do you mean "nothing happens"?

This tool aims to request specific path-scans. You are providing the root folder of a section. By doing this you should trigger a global section scan, you can keep track of such scan via Plex admin view.

thank you for your response.
by "nothing happens" I mean the way I unsderstand it is that it should trigger a library scan after I add a new file to the set folder which it doesn't in my case. Is there a verbose log or something where I can see what's happening on my end?

By looking at your log I can see that you are not running the tool as a background service.

You should try with:
plex-nfs-watchdog --daemon --paths /Plex/MOVIES/ --host http://localhost:32400 --token YOUR_TOKEN --interval 150 --listeners move modify create delete

The tool should start as a daemon (looking your terminal). As soon as you add new files in the folder you will see in the locked terminal the logs of what it is happening, like detection and scheduling.

You should use tmux or similar to run the tool on a persistent detchable terminal session.
