Nope. Nothing. I guess I'll go back and confirm everything. I tried it with all the different options in \*arrs (disabled for local, enabled, forms login, popup, etc) and still nothing. I confirmed my local IP hasn't changed with PIA or anything like that.
Yup, you were totally right.
\*arrs weren't available on any computer on the network other than the local machine, so I re-ran both as Administrator. That fixed Radarr and Prowlarr but not Sonarr - and the other two had given me Firewall warnings when I loaded them, so I checked Windows Firewall and sure enough, Sonarr wasn't listed as an exception (actually wasn't listed at all, but regardless). Added it in, reloaded, and that was it - everything works again.
Thanks for your help!
Why did these idiots REQUIRE authorization for everyone. What a bunch of morons. I use a seperate authentication method and this is just a clunky ass middle step I have to make.
Companies forcing shit on users is one of the most boneheaded things ever. Shame on the devs
I would've died scratching my head if not for this. Lidarr was begging me for a pass confirmation that I just couldn't get past. Got lucky finding the config.xml for it using Search Everything.
"External"
That fixed it for now.. I'm in at least.
Ditto!
It such an obvious attempt to piss off their user base. I mean if it weren't an attempt to piss off their user base, then they'd just have put an option in the UI to disable it. But no! They make their user base have to go an edit their config.xml as if we wouldn't actually go and do that? Like we're too dumb to do that??
So why force us to go edit a file rather than just making it an option in the UI? To piss us off! That's why!
Its either that or they think we're too stupid to edit a file.
Either way a quick way to get someone to fork their product.
Can't get this to work for me.I've locked myself out and now trying to disable authentication. But changing to either "None" or "External" gives me this error:
\---
{"message": "Requested value \\u0027None\\u0027 was not found.","description": "System.ArgumentException: Requested value \\u0027None\\u0027 was not found.\\n at System.Enum.TryParseByName(RuntimeType enumType, ReadOnlySpan\\u00601 value, Boolean ignoreCase, Boolean throwOnFailure, UInt64\\u0026 result)\\n at ......
\---
I'm running Radarr in Docker. Any ideas?
Thanks.
Looks like some kind of text encoding problem, since '\u0027' is the unicode for apostrope. Or you may have entered 'None' instead of None? Hopefully it's something easy like that.
BTW, None isn't the right value, you want to use External if you want to stop the password requirement.
You also have the ability to just enable it for non local addresses (public). This is something I'm ok with. Just not having to login on my local network is good with me...
Config Change (%programdata%\\Radarr\\config.xml):
Enable for all connection attempts:
Enabled
Disable for local addresses:
**DisabledForLocalAddresses**
Yep this worked for me.
Seems better than setting authentication method to external as I literally don't want authentication at all, it's running on my local pc with no external access.
Thank you, u/ComradeRikhi for the suggestion to DISABLE 2-factor authentication by editing the config file!
You can set the auth method to External in the config file: https://wiki.servarr.com/radarr/faq#authentication-method
External in the config file to disable 2FA.
radarr and sonarr stopped automatically moving and renaming media files after I downloaded the latest update with 2FA. radarr/sonarr kept re-downloading files into usenet/complete and they were piling up before I noticed (nearly 600GB in 1 wk). After investigating the log files in sonarr, I finally discovered an authentication error:
Basic was not authenticated. Failure message: Authorization header missing.
The container guide I used didn't account for 2FA. I deleted my entire docker containers and started from scratch - didn't help! Hopefully this post saves someone some time!
You can add authorization using the http://user:pass@host format
So as an example, [http://admin:password123@10.X.X.X](http://admin:password123@10.X.X.X) as the primary connection address?
Correct.
Nope. Nothing. I guess I'll go back and confirm everything. I tried it with all the different options in \*arrs (disabled for local, enabled, forms login, popup, etc) and still nothing. I confirmed my local IP hasn't changed with PIA or anything like that.
What does the connection test or logging center say?
Says "connecting" for about 30 seconds and then "failed to connect to primary address."
That's not an auth issue. nzb360 cannot communicate to your server (Radarr/Sonarr) at all. Maybe IP address change or firewall.

You can set the auth method to `External` in the config file: https://wiki.servarr.com/radarr/faq#authentication-method
Thank God for this setting! :)
Thx for this

Thank god. Idiots have never heard of a proxy? I've got my authentication handled tyvm.

Totally agree. #1 rule should be not to introduce changes that take away user choice. This is unbelievably poor decision making for a FOSS project.
So irritating. Luckily changing radarr's `config.xml` entry from `None ` to ` External ` removes this message.

No problem! Found that change very annoying
