Sonarr plugin broke, can't reinstall, need to upgrade to scale?

so i been on core 13.3 for a long time. i only run sabnzb/sonarr/radarr/plex. nothing else and have data set. for storage. Suddenly my sonarr broke, i can ping it, but gui doesn’t load. I tried to pkg update, and kept getting error because repo doesn’t exist etc. i guess i have to upgrade to scale now to reinstall sonarr?
is the upgrade from 13.3 to scale simple and easy? do i have to do a lot of setup for the 4 plugins/jail i use? or will it migrate fine and work fine?
If there is a way to reinstall sonarr in my 13.3, i rather do that, please help.

this is the error i get when trying to reinsta//update sonarr

root@sonarr:~ # pkg update

i also tried to update the jail to 13.3 before updating pkg and got this error

I’m absolutely no expert for core jails, never used them… but don’t you have to do an iocage fetch for 13.4-release?
From the error it seems to me you’re still on iocage 12

correct, i did that and tried it before and got the following error:

root@freenas[~]# iocage upgrade -r 13.3-RELEASE sonarr

You need to use 13.4

yup, tried that too. same error. seems like the plugin isn’t available outside of 12.**

yeah, if it was a plugin that explains a lot, those haven’t been maintained for years. you can try to roll out your own jail and manually install it inside it, but even the 13.4 release doesn’t have a long support window left. And Core 13.3 won’t get any updates anymore.
