Issues with Init.d Startup

Post by Kroobie »

Just done a fresh install of Ubuntu, and obviously first step is to get my Sab back online.

Did a simple apt-get install, all seems fine. Calling "sabnzbdplus" works a charm, and went through the wizard.

I have edit "/etc/default/sabnzbdplus" to look like this:

Code: Select all

# This file is sourced by /etc/init.d/sabnzbdplus
#
# When SABnzbd+ is started using the init script, the
# --daemon option is always used, and the program is
# started under the account of $USER, as set below.
#
# Each setting is marked either "required" or "optional";
# leaving any required setting unconfigured will cause
# the service to not start.

# [required] user or uid of account to run the program as:
USER=andrew

# [optional] full path to the configuration file of your choice;
#            otherwise, the default location (in $USER's home
#            directory) is used:
CONFIG=

# [optional] hostname/ip and port number to listen on:
HOST=0.0.0.0
PORT=8082

# [optional] extra command line options, if any:
EXTRAOPTS=
/etc/init.d/sabnzbdplus is the this one I found on here, but i had the same issues with everyone iv tried.

When i run

Code: Select all

/etc/init.d/sabnzbdplus start
it returns

Code: Select all

-bash: /etc/init.d/sabnzbdplus: Permission denied
I'm adamant its something very simple and i just cant see it, but not so sure now!

any advice would be so much help, thanks in advance!

sudo in front of /etc/init.d/sabnzbdplus start

so:

Code: Select all

sudo /etc/init.d/sabnzbdplus start
