downloads stay in tempfolder

Post by Darth_Mueller »

Hello,

im running SABnzbd+ 0.4.7 on ubuntu 9.04 server
It worked when i installed it over the repository for about one day
but since now the downloads stay in the temp dir and are not unrared and moved to the folder where the finished downloads should be
under the switch tab i selceted to +delete
that means the download works fine, but somehow it doesnt start to postprocess the files
unrar and par are installed and work
Does anyone have a clue what is wrong?

Look at the errors and warnings on the Connections page.
Did you get warnings about unrar and par2 not being found?

Check the Python version, it should be 2.4 or 2.5 and not 2.6.

there are no warnings about par2 or unrar, they both work, but when i deintsall python 2.6 sabnzb is automatically deinstalled too.
when i install it over apt-get again, python 2.6 is installed again.
is there a way to install it without python 2.6?

edit:
ok, i found out that ln -f -s /usr/bin/python2.5 /usr/bin/python should fix it

Current sabnzbdplus packages for jaunty use ONLY python 2.5 (in both ppa and ubuntu repositories), regardless of what other python version might be installed, and regardless of what /usr/bin/python is made to point to. You can easily recognize this from the very first line of /usr/bin/sabnzbdplus.

Take a look at http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/sabnzbdplus - specifically note 1) the lack of a dependency on the default python version (packagename "python"), but also 2) the possibility of hard dependencies of sabnzbdplus in turn depending on python2.6, either directly or via the default python.
