Where can I find the logs or database

You can find the location for your database and log file in the following location depending where and how you installed it.

Windows Installation: %programdata%\Bazarr

Docker: linuxserver/bazarr /config/db and /config/log

Docker: hotio/bazarr /config/app/db and /config/app/log

Source and other Installation: data directory inside bazarr root directory

This path doesn't seems to be valid

If you're getting a error that looks like this:

image-20200723180256943

This can be for various reasons, but the most common is, Bazarr is running as a service, which causes one of two things:

Bazarr service runs under Local System account that won't be able to access network shares. Run Bazarr's service as another user that has access to that share. You need to change the account used for Bazarr service in services.msc console.

You're using a mapped network drive (not a UNC path). Change your paths to UNC paths (\\server\share) both in Sonarr, Radarr and Bazarr will be able to access those files.

Your docker containers volume paths don't match with Sonarr/Radarr make sure Bazarr uses the identical volume paths as Sonarr and Radarr.

If you're using docker and get this warning and need help with it provide us with the docker compose or docker build command of Bazarr and Sonarr/Radarr !!!

If you're using a system with a GUI(Synology, unRAID, OMV, etc.) to configure docker use one of the following from terminal(puTTy) to get the docker compose or docker build command.`

docker run --rm -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock assaflavie/runlike CONTAINER_NAME

or

docker run --rm -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock red5d/docker-autocompose CONTAINER_NAME

And yes this even works on a Synology if you don't know how you probably didn't read the Installation-Synology

You might need to make use of Paths Mapping
