Thanks for the github issue info, interesting behaviours noted indeed!

In task manager, is shows up as "SABnzbd.exe" when CPU usage is high.

Yes, pre-built SABnzbd binary.

I will try without firewall and virus scanner too, will post back details when done.

When I mean "repeat test", it applies to first test run too. I could just not use this function as suggested, however is it useful to use to understand when the set up is not correct and what may be limiting the system performance. This recent behaviour is coupled with the 'Internet bandwi...

After running "Repeat Test", the 'SABnzbd.exe' process consumes very high CPU usage (>40%) on 5/6 cores, driving CPU to 4.08GHz. This kicks off the CPU fan into overdrive. In around 10 seconds, the test completes and sends back success results for all items. After 10 seconds, disk usage is...

SABnzbd says this when the SQL command did not execute correctly, with an undefined problem.

Ok, if issue occurs again, I will try a lower version, but seems intermittent.
I have 7 news servers defined, but only 2 active, with one at priority 0 (unlimited), and one at priority 1 (block).

I have found a bug after sabnzbd 3.2.1 [0542c25] has been running for 8 days, showing the "SQL Command Failed, see log". Upon looking at the queue, this error pops up several times per minute and seems to have stopped reporting downloads/history the last 5 days. https://i.imgur.com/kI30lWC...

@Sander Manually added to queue the nzb in question and it downloaded and processed successfully (with the same version of software 3.2.1) . It didn't have anything in queue before or after download (so not fully recreating scenario). Should I still try an earlier build? How should I send you the nz...

Thanks Sander, I will definetly try downloading that file again to see if it gets stuck in queue again.
However, do I really need to test with an older version? It seems a lot of work to try with another version, setup/config, and redownload.

Hi all, I think I have suffered a bug in SABnzbd, whilst downloading and this has left 4 days of downloads queuing, please can you review the logs below and find what caused the issue/bug?
