Adding NZB Files from Google Chrome on Linux

Post by bstock »

Hi,

I have an issue where I cannot add nzb files by going to 'Add NZB' then 'Choose File'. It lets me browse to the file, but once I select the file nothing happens. If I go to a windows box and connect to the SAB server, it can upload fine. If I use firefox from my linux desktop, it also works fine, so it's definitely a client issue with Google Chrome on Linux.

Version: 0.5.6 Final
OS: Ubuntu Linux Maverick 10.10
Install-type: python source
Skin (if applicable): Plush
Firewall Software: n/a
Are you using IPV6? no
Is the issue reproducible? yes

We don't really like Chrome.
New issue every week. Most also go away a few weeks later.

It's been an issue for quite a while. FYI Chrome on Windows seems to work fine, just the Linux version. I'd say at least 2 months I've noticed it.

I've used Chrome on Linux for months and haven't had a problem with Sab and classic skin. I'd suggest you look at the skin you're using before you go blaming Chrome (currently 9.0.597.84 Official Build 72991)
SABnzbd 0.7.17 JCFP Ubuntu ppa
Precise 12.04.4 LTS x86_64
XBMC Gotham 14.0-alpha1 Git:577494a 20140406
ASRock ION 330-BD Intel Dual Core Atom 1.6GHz

Dude chill, I wans't 'blaming' Chrome, I was saying the issue only happens when using Chrome on linux.

I just tried changing skin, and simple does let me upload fine, so I'd now say the issue is with either Chrome or the skin, as it only happens when using the combination of the two.

Could you try changing your skin to plush and see if you get the same results? My version of Chrome is 9.0.597.94 beta, so I'd be interested to see if the official build makes a difference.

Thanks.

It is not only chrome with linux.
As I have the same on windows 7 .. with plush skin

It was working before & I don't think there was an update (from chrome) or it must have been a silent one

Nothing wrong here on my Win7-64 box using Chrome 9.0.597.94
Did you clean your browser cache?

However, 0.5.6 with Chrome-9 does fail in this aspect on Ubuntu 10.10.
The good news is that 0.6.0 will work OK in the same situation.

Same with Chromium (9.0.597.94), but in Chromium the menus won't stay open when navigating down the menu...
