## Common questions

### Why might the FlexGet web UI show a blank page after the system boots?

It can happen when the daemon is started automatically as a login item. Stop the daemon from the CLI and restart it with flexget daemon start, and the UI may work again.

### What should I do if FlexGet tasks fail with a missing deluge-client error?

Install the Deluge client dependency for FlexGet. The log may prompt you to run pip install deluge-client.

### Where in a FlexGet task do I set the folder used for downloaded content?

Use the download plugin in the YAML task and set the target path there. For example, a tv task can use download: /tvshows.

### Where should FlexGet bugs or errors be reported?

Report all bugs and errors using GitHub issues. The help page also points to chat and the forum for discussion and support.
