ERROR [newzbin] Newzbin server changed its protocol

[mastersite]

Seems to be a problem whenever i try to download via inputting a newzbin report id.

I get this error from 'history'

- Failed to fetch newzbin report 3109923
- Stage Download
    [URL Fetch]: => Failed, Try again

And this error from the 'warnings'

hm?

That message is set when sabnzbd cannot extract the expected headers from the api request. This could be a sabnzbd / newzbin / python error.

What operating system are you running? Has this just start happening with this latest version?

im running linux, but not sure which one. How can i find out?

It happened with 0.4 and updated to 0.4.2 and still having the same problem.

Not too sure how to find out, you could just type "python" and see what it has to say above the input line.

My initial thought is that your python installation does not like HTTPS connections. SABnzbd does try to detect if you have support for it when deciding which one to use.

Try opening up newzbin.py and changing line 144

Code: Select all

from:
conn = httplib.HTTPSConnection('www.newzbin.com')
to:
conn = httplib.HTTPConnection('www.newzbin.com')

restart sabnzbd and see if it works now. If it does then you need to have a look into enabling ssl support for your python install, maybe compiling it again.
