Damoen can't find sabnzbd.py

[mj112]

Hi
First of all i am really new to ubuntu (just installed it a few days ago - so i don't understand half of what i do) everything i do is done by some sort of guide found on the internet. Now here is the problem, i installed sabnzbd+ and it woked like a charm. Next up was to create the daemon (don't really know what that is) so i download an .sh file with the following code

#! /bin/bash

## CONFIG ##
USERNAME="myusername"
HOST="localhost"
PORT="8080"
## / CONFIG ##

case "$1" in
start)
        echo "Starting SABnzbd."
        /usr/bin/sudo -u $USERNAME -H python /usr/share/sabnzbdplus/SABnzbd.py -f /home/$USERNAME/.sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini --browser 0 -d
        ;;
stop)
        echo "Shutting down SABnzbd."
        /usr/bin/wget -q --delete-after "http://$HOST:$PORT/sabnzbd/api?mode=shutdown"
        ;;
*)
        echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop}"
        exit 1
esac

exit 0

used the following commands

Code: Select all

chmod +x ~/Desktop/sabnzbd.sh

and then

Code: Select all

sudo cp ~/Desktop/sabnzbd.sh /etc/init.d
sudo update-rc.d -f sabnzbd remove
sudo update-rc.d -f sabnzbd defaults

I then tried restarting and nothing happens, when i try the command

Code: Select all

sudo /etc/init.d/sabnzbd.sh start

i get an error saying it cant find the sabnzbd.py

/usr/share/sabnzbdplus/SABnzbd.py

(what is that?)

I did just as the manual for ubuntu says i have to do when i installed it... but it wont work..

now if i instead of

Code: Select all

  /usr/bin/sudo -u $USERNAME -H python /usr/share/sabnzbdplus/SABnzbd.py -f /home/$USERNAME/.sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini --browser 0 -d

just replace it with

Code: Select all

 /usr/bin/sudo sabnzbdplus

it works fine, but i guess something isn't as it's suppose to be right???

ofcourse it didn't work but i did find the root of my problem by checking /etc/init.d/sabnzbdplus
apparently i had to use

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/sabnzbdplus/SABnzbd.py

instead of

Code: Select all

/usr/share/sabnzbdplus/SABnzbd.py

silly me
