systemd service file for Debian Ubuntu

Note

Be aware that this is provided as-is without any support from the team.

This is a systemd service file created by users of Bazarr. It assumes you've installed Bazarr in: /opt/bazarr.

You have to create a bazarr.service file in /etc/systemd/system that would contain the following text:

[Unit]
Description=Bazarr Daemon
After=syslog.target network.target

# After=syslog.target network.target sonarr.service radarr.service

[Service]
WorkingDirectory=/opt/bazarr/
User=your_user(username of your choice)
Group=your_group(group of your choice)
UMask=0002
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=5
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/bin/python3 /opt/bazarr/bazarr.py
KillSignal=SIGINT
TimeoutStopSec=20
SyslogIdentifier=bazarr
ExecStartPre=/bin/sleep 30

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Start the service using sudo systemctl start bazarr

Check if the service is running using sudo systemctl status bazarr

If it's running without errors then you need to enable the service using sudo systemctl enable bazarr

Upstart script for Debian Ubuntu

This is an init upstart file. It assumes you've installed Bazarr in: /opt/bazarr

You have to create a bazarr.conf file in /etc/init/ (sudo nano /etc/init/bazarr.conf) that would contain the following text:

description "Upstart Script to run Bazarr as a service on Ubuntu/Debian based systems, as well as others"
author "A Bazarr User"

#Set user and group for the process if desired
#setuid myUserID
#setgid myGroupID

#start after all services come up
start on runlevel [2345]
stop on runlevel [016]

# Automatically restart process if crashed

respawn

# Make sure script is started with system locale

script
   if [ -r /etc/default/locale ]; then
       . /etc/default/locale
       export LANG
   fi
   exec python /opt/bazarr/bazarr.py
end script
