sending email not working due to wrong path for email template on FreeBSD

Post by oebele »

I installed the SABnzbd port for FreeBSD and noticed that email-notification doesn't work because no email template can be found. The templates are there, in /usr/local/share/language, but apparently SABnzbd can't find them. I don't know the right path, or how to change where SABnzbd looks for them, so I put the standard template in my user-templates folder and now it's working, but I guess this should be corrected in the port.

Yes, it's a porting problem.
SABnzbd expects the default template folder to be in a subfolder of its own folder
(So relative to SABnzbd.py).
This is an issue for most Unix packages and I know the Ubuntu porter applies a few patches.
