Cannot uninstall Couchpotato

  • Hi all, I have a problem with Couchpotato. In my dashboard it has a red dot, and most of the time it stops running automatically. To fix this, I wanted to uninstall Couchpotato and reinstall it. While trying to do so I get the following error message (in webgui and in SSH):



    I'm running 2.1.20 (stone burner), Linux 3.2.0.-4AMD64 kernel. Does anybody have an idea how to fix my couchpotato installation?

  • Try installing over the top of the existing version apt-get install openmediavault-couchpotato If that goes well and you still wish to uninstall, do apt-get remove --purge openmediavault-couchpotato

    I tried that (with --reinstall, otherwise it wouldn't work) and got:



    The remove command give the same error code.

  • It looks like it is missing the couchpotato user so try adding it and the reinstalling


    Code
    adduser --quiet \
                        --system \
                        --group \
                        --no-create-home \
                        --disabled-password \

    I added the user with

    Code
    --quiet --system --group --no-create-home --disabled-password couchpotato

    and also tried

    Code
    adduser --quiet \--system \--group \--no-create-home \--disabled-password \couchpotato

    trough putty.


    Then I did

    Code
    apt-get --reinstall install openmediavault-couchpotato

    followed by

    Code
    apt-get remove --purge openmediavault-couchpotato

    . The last command still gives the error below:




    When I try uninstalling from the OMW webinterface I get this error message:



    Any ideas? Thanks for the help so far!

    If you can't remove a plugin from the command line, the web interface won't work either.


    Try:


    rm -f /var/lib/dpkg/info/openmediavault-couchpotato.postrm
    apt-get purge openmediavault-couchpotato
    rm -rf /opt/couchpotato /var/opt/couchpotato
