I have a new machine to take over for my old one as it is in the process of being decommissioned. I created a backup of RADARR on the old machine, and it was able to be imported to the new machine but because (for now) my old setup was running on the machine that has the files.
All the movies show up in the list but it says root directories are not found. This is fine since I use mapped drives to replace the physical address (U:\ instead of E:\Multimedia\Movies, for instance) on the new machine.
I used DB Browser for SQLite to update the root folder table, as well as replace the paths in the table that hold the movie data after first install/backup restore attempt. I uninstalled and rebooted after the first attempt (that just imported the ZIP from the old machine) to try importing the edited DB file.
I also attempted to add multiple root directories that reflect where the files are stored, but I was only able to add one. Since I have a sizeable collection I have had to split the collection across a few drives.
However it still says "Multiple root folders are missing for movie collections", and the root folders I added in the SQL editor show up unlike before. Is there an easier way to migrate the config or do I need to go through each movie and manually change the root folder?
I feel I am missing something simple and overthinking it.
Thanks in advanced!
