Access to downloaded files

[utilisateur]

Hi,

I have configured SABnzbd on my NAS Synology as recommended, by putting "volume1/downloads/incomplete" etc... as folders. But as the default root is "/usr/local/sabnzbd/var", the complete path is : "/usr/local/sabnzbd/var/volume1/downloads/incomplete" so I can't access to the downloaded files.

So I'm just looking for a simple way to download files in the folders I've specificly created for, directly in Volume 1/Downloads.

Thank you

Just set full paths (starting with /) for all paths in Config->Paths.

Thank you for your answer.

I assume I wasn't very clear

If I put the full path, I don't have any issue for downloading files, but then how can I access them easily ? Because on my NAS I can easily access shared folders that I've created directly in /Volume 1, but I can't access easily "/usr/local/sabnzbd/var/volume1".

You can set any path that you want, you're not limited to the default location.
Just set the "Temporary Download Folder" to /volume1/downloads/incomplete
Note the slash at the start of the path.
This assumes that SABnzbd can actually write to /volume1/downloads

I've done so, but SABnzbd automatically changes it with the full path "/usr/local/sabnzbd/var/volume1"...
At the very top of the page, it's written default root path "/usr/local/sabnzbd/var" and I can't change that.

That only happens because the path doesn't exist AND cannot be created by SABnzbd.
You'll have to come up with a path that is.
Possibly a sub-folder of where you want the completed downloads to end.

Then I don't understand why it's not accepted by SABnzbd...

I've created a shared folder "downloads" (iin Volume 1) and sub folders "complete", "incomplete", "nzb2download" with R/W permissions for "Users".

Did I do something wrong ?

[shypike]

It's hard to tell for me whether or not you did something wrong.
SABnzbd just examines if it can create the path if not existing or whether it's writeable.

Ok I've found the problem...I had to add Write access to "User" group for sub-folders also (Complete, Incomplete Under Downloads)

Thank you

Right. Happy downloading.
