   Replace https with http and add your Jackett port number (e.g., 12345).

   http://<hostname>:12345/jackett/api/v2.0/indexers/<tracker>/results/torznab/
   

2. Navigate to Settings > Indexers in Radarr and click +.
3. Select Torznab under Torrent.
4. Configure:
   • Name: <tracker name>
   • URL: <modified Torznab URL>
   • API Key: <API key from Jackett>
5. Click Test. If successful, click Save.

Fixing Radarr Issues After Updates

If Radarr doesn’t start correctly after an update:

1. Log in via SSH and navigate to the Radarr config directory:

   cd ~/.config/Radarr/
   cp radarr.db ~/
   

2. Reinstall Radarr:

   box remove radarr
   box install radarr
   

3. Turn off Radarr in the web UI, wait 20 seconds, then:

   rm radarr.db radarr.db-shm radarr.db-wal radarr.pid
   cp ~/radarr.db ~/.config/Radarr/
   

4. Turn Radarr back on from the web UI.
