[closed] rar5 password error

Post by el_pimo »

hi there.

im using sabnzbd version 0.7.20 on win7x64. somehow it wont unrar password protected rar5 volumes ("Unpacking failed, archive requires a password") but the correct password is provided inside a txt file. All other formats (including pw protected ones) work properly. Only rar5 produces this error. The solution i found was to replace the unrar.exe. Did this (x86 and x64) with v5.21 from the rarlabs source but still get the same error.

Can you unpack the files manually using WinRAR?

Can you email an example NZB (with the matching password) to bugs@sabnzbd.org ?

localized the error... dang it was not sabnzbd.

it was nzbfox sending the links via api and creating some random passwort in the files so sab tried unpacking with a wrong pw. Without even checking the pass.txt because of the preset pw on the download.
