## 🚨 Troubleshooting
### Common Issues
**Service won't start**
- Check Docker logs: `docker-compose logs service-name`
- Verify port availability: `netstat -tulpn | grep PORT`
- Check file permissions on mounted volumes
**Can't access web interface**
- Verify service is running: `docker-compose ps`
- Check firewall settings
- Confirm correct port mapping
**Performance issues**
- Monitor resource usage: `docker stats`
- Check available disk space: `df -h`
- Review service logs for errors
**Media not showing**
- Check media file permissions
- Verify volume mounts are correct
- Scan media library manually
### Useful Commands
```bash
# Check service status
docker-compose ps
# View real-time logs
docker-compose logs -f linuxserver-prowlarr
# Restart service
docker-compose restart linuxserver-prowlarr
# Update service
docker-compose pull linuxserver-prowlarr
docker-compose up -d linuxserver-prowlarr
# Access service shell
