On Sabnzbd 4.5.3, since last week I am unable to pass from any link from Prowlarr to SAB. The file status is always "Fetching NZB from URL. It doesn't matter if it's from NZBGeek or DS. If I use the link directly from DS for example, the file gets processed - no issue.
After trying multiple times, the fetching times out and I get a file error pointing to a random file name under profile\local\sabnzbd\admin\future
I did not change anything in my configuration. No update of Prowlarr or SAB. This issue just came up. I already reinstalled both but the issue remains.

Re: Trying to fetch NZB and file error when linking through Prowlarr
Ah, I've the same since a few days: "URL Fetching failed; Maximum retries" in History.
And in Queue: "Trying to fetch NZB from http://192.168.1.129:5076/getnzb/api/76..." on left side and "Fetch NZB from URL" on right hand side, for hours/days.
It's with donwloads that Nzbhydra has put into SABnzbd 4.5.4Beta1 . And http://192.168.1.129:5076/ is my NZBhydra instance.
I'm sure if it's SAB, my local setup or network, or indexer related.
EDIT:
Ah, this was a PEBKAC: I had socks5 proxy active to a remote host (not on my LAN) ... which of course can't connect http://192.168.1.129:5076/
