PC wont shutdown after downloading

[Digidoom]

Hi,

I upgraded to this version last week but this is the second time
that computer was still running when I woke up.
I did not have this issue with prior version. (0.38 I believe)
I selected shutdown, refreshed page and it stayed checked.
BUG?

[shypike]

There have been some reports from other people.
So far, we don't have a clue.
In our tests, it never fails.

[Digidoom]

Should I go back to a prior version ?
Or can I help in any way ?

[shypike]

Check the logging. Does SAbnzbd log that it wants to shutdown?
We have seen cases where the shutdown of Windows does not work
due to some Windows problem.

[Digidoom]

It doesnt seem to remember the settings.
Also when I change the download que it does not work.
It keeps changing back to original que.
I did not have this problem with the prior version so I dont think
it is a windows vista problem?

[Digidoom]

I am trying to change que too.
I clicked pause, changed the download que, download 3 to 0 for example,
pressed resume again and it jumped right back to original settings.
Any thought on this?

[shypike]

Not sure what you mean by "que".
There's no need to pause. Just set the end-of-queue box on the Queue page to "shutdown".
If the UI acts funny, try to clear the browser cache (Control-F5 for Firefox).

Which skin are you using (Default, Smpl or Plush) ?

[switch]

He is talking about a separate issue now, saying he cannot change the order of items in the queue.

Make sure you have javascript enabled.

[Digidoom]

Yes, the que or the order in the list.
When I change that and press resume (I start sabnzbd in PAUSED)
it jumps right back to original order.
Java is enabled. I did not have this problem with 0.34 or 0.38.
Same Firefox, just updated sabnzbd.
I will try to unintstall sabnzbd and try the older version again
to see if it still works there.
I think changing the order in te list and checking the shutdown option are related ?

[shypike]

Are you sure you don't have the auto-sort option on in Config->Switches?

[Digidoom]

Yes, I am sure.
I now know it is Firefox that is blocking the program.
In IE7 I dont have any problems.
Switching the que list 0, 1, 2 immediately changes order.
I will try if the shutdown option works in IE later.
I checked Firefox 3 again but java IS enabled.
Any other option I am missing here ?


lol, after going through about:config i found the problem
It is called NO SCRIPT !
It was the plugin that was interferring.

Now all works well again. :-)
Boy, suddenly I feel dumb...

[shypike]

A very useful plugin! (But I've been bitten by it too  )

Heh, I had thought about asking if you had noscript, but decided you wouldn't be running it Glad you got the issue sorted.
