URL Fetching failed; Unusable NZB file, Try again

Post by PepeLePew »

I have happily been using SABnzb for the last few months with my favoured NZB site. One click and downloading in seconds. Now when I click to download from NZBmatrix, I get the following " URL Fetching failed; Unusable NZB file, Try again ". It doesn´t seem to help if I add the nzb file manually either.  Can anyone please tell me what is causing this ? Thanks.

Known problem with nzbmatrix.com
Some NZB files cannot be retrieved through the API, while they
are reported in the RSS feed and are retrievable from the website.

No, I have complained several times on their forum, nothing happens.
There is a notice that very recent files take some time to reach the API.
If the NZB is older than 2 days, don't count on it being fixed.

I´m confused. The problem persists, no matter which NZB site I attempt to download from with SABnzbd. No problem with other client... .

Don't know NZBVortex, but nzbmatrix does work most of the time.

As it turns out there was a problem with an old download folder on my NAS. Deleted it and re-installed SAnzbd. Problem gone :D. My bad :-[
