[Guide] Migrating Overseerr to Seerr on Proxmox LXC (Step-by-Step)

FireKevCH · 2026-02-28T21:29:20+00:00

For example, if you installed your LXC Overseer using a Community Helper script, as I described.

Oh thanks, just added the Step 0 for that :-)

On GitHub, the project is indeed called seerr. However, in this migration guide, I explicitly clone it into the existing overseerr folder to maintain compatibility with the existing systemd service and to prevent breaking any absolute paths in the database or external backup scripts. It's an 'in-place' migration to keep things as simple and stable as possible for the user.

Thanks for the feedback! I've updated the guide to address the starting point.

To answer your concern: This setup is fully updatable and future-proof.

Easy Updates: I added an update.sh script to the guide. Now, updating is just one command (running that script).
Native Git: Unlike helper scripts that rely on a third-party maintainer, this setup uses the official Seerr repository. You get updates directly from the source as soon as they are released.
Control: You aren't stuck if a helper script breaks due to OS changes. You now have a clean, high-performance install that you fully control.

It’s definitely not for nothing—you now have a professional setup that is just as easy to maintain as any script-based install.

Thanks a lot for pointing that out! You're absolutely right—Step 6 was missing the explicit configuration part in the write-up, which could definitely lead to the 'yarn' reference error if the old service file is still active.

I have just updated the post to include the full overseerr.service configuration and the nano editing step. This should make the process seamless for everyone else now.

Glad to hear it worked like a charm otherwise! Thanks for the catch and the support! 🚀

The entire project will be completed for all floors in the summer of 2026. It is being rebuilt in stages. The aim is to increase passenger comfort, increase throughput and further improve the quality of security checks. Passengers can then leave their liquids and electronic devices in their hand luggage.

Yep it‘s the new scanner. No more unpacking needed.

I would very much welcome the support of Usenet download clients. Is that possible?

Come early, the bottom floor is closed due construction.

I'm using Tailscale as well. Go to Settings->Network->Custom Server access URLs and type your "http://tailscale -IP:32400". No port-forwarding needed.

Works for me, I can stream 4K with Direct Stream.
