not downloading par2s even after failed verify

Post by gooeyblob »

Version: 0.5.6
OS: CentOS 5.5 x86_64
Install-type: Python source
Skin: smpl
FW: None
IPV6: No
Reproducible: yes

When using certain NZBs, I can see sabnzbd mark the par2s as Waiting so it should go back and grab them if there's problems, but it will verify, find it's damaged, and then just quit rather than going back and grabbing the rest of the par2 files.  I'm using multicore par2 if that makes a difference.

edit: and the relevant log entries:

Code: Select all

It's possible that the par2 files do not follow the conventional naming pattern.
SABnzbd isn't very good at handling that (improvement for a future release).

It seems like it does recognize it though as it marks them as 'Waiting', right?  I'm imagining I went wrong in the par2 setup somewhere or I checked some option I've now forgot about...although other NZBs have repaired without a problem.  Maybe they only required the already downloaded pars.  Hmm this is confusing!

SABnzbd will recognize par2 files alright, but it may not know to which file set they belong.
Without more details such as an actual NZB, there's not much I can say about this.
Please email one to bugs at sabnzbd.org referring to this post.

Received.
It will take a while to analyse, because currently I'm travelling.

This is a screwed up post.
If you run par2 manually on the files, it will give this message:
No details available for recoverable file number 1.
Recovery will not be possible.
That's what makes SABnzbd decide that it's useless to try any further recovery.

Even QuickPar cannot make heads or tails of it. Which usually means: abandon hope.
