I was able to resolve this by editing the /tmp/yams/docker-compose.example.yaml.
I changed a line in the lidarr config from:

Code: Select all

lidarr:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/lidarr

To:

Code: Select all

lidarr:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/lidarr:latest

And reran the install script.

Hey @maken!

Just a heads-up! The :latest tag is the default when you pull from Docker, so even when it failed the first time, it appended :latest automatically. Your issue seems to have been a temporary DNS blip that got auto-fixed by your ISP. These things happen sometimes.

Here’s proof that the default URL works and that latest is used automatically if not specified:

That may be true, but I think something must have cached the error, because I ran it probably 10 times over the space of an hour and same thing every time! As soon as I changed it it worked... so maybe docker or maybe the download site, I also downloaded the file directly and it said something about needing authentication, so maybe thats it.

No authentication is ever needed, and it's not possible to catch host network errors in a docker compose file. If your DNS is not working (and maybe cached), there's nothing YAMS can do.
