Hi
I've just installed both sonarr and this plugin (thanks!) but having trouble with the plugin - attached is hopefully enough info from the log, but please let me know if I can supply or try anything.
Thanks

I'm receiving the same error.

EDIT: Fixed my issue changing Sonarr's Authentication from "Forms (Login Page)" to "Basic (Browser popup)", and then modifying Sonarr Plug-in authentication inside Plex to "Basic". Hope that helps anyone.

[jamorin]

Hmm.. selecting Forms or Basic in Sonarr's settings shouldn't matter (in terms of this plugin) so long as you've provided the API Key. Having the correct API Key by-passes those settings and is what the api-key is meant for. So, weird how that fixes your issue. I might have to look into why..

The authentication settings for username/password/basic in this plugin's settings are really meant for reverse proxies protected with username/password. Which is why you would possibly need to provide both API-Key (authenticate against Sonarr) and username/password (authenticate against the reverse proxy in apache or nginx).

alexrengel: Thank you so much !! This has been driving me nuts. I had form fill and changed to basic and then entered auth in the plugin on basic also. That is the only combination that has worked. I do have the api key and tried generating new ones with no resolution.
