Can't save downloads to network drive path

Post by lavelle568 »

Hi there:

Using: Win7 64 (and giganews)

This was working, and suddenly it's not. Not sure what changed - I can't save anything to my network drive path set in the categories section of the config:

Code: Select all

2011-09-05 18:46:06,421::INFO::[misc:718] Creating directories: M:\files\media\videos\Red State 2011 PPV 720p HDTV x264 MOMENTUM

2011-09-05 18:46:06,423::ERROR::[misc:720] Failed making (M:\files\media\videos\Red State 2011 PPV 720p HDTV x264 MOMENTUM)

2011-09-05 18:46:06,423::ERROR::[postproc:444] Post Processing Failed for Red State 2011 PPV 720p HDTV x264 MOMENTUM (Cannot create final folder M:\files\media\videos\Red State 2011 PPV 720p HDTV x264 MOMENTUM)
I can save to my local drive just fine. This started showing when I upgraded to sabnzbdplus 0.6.8 - I already tried the preview versions down to 0.6.5 (which I was running up until recently), and it still occurs.

My apologies if this is an issue addressed on the forum already - I tried searching for this issue and found some solutions (one of which was re-enter the path in the categories config) but nothing has worked so far.

Thanks in advance!

Is your M: drive still mounted?

Yes, I can access it via Explorer; I can create, access, and delete files and folders.

It's Windows, so did you reboot your system first?
Other than access rights problems and other Windows issues, I cannot think of anything.
All paths are the same as far as SABnzbd is concerned.
Does SABnzbd run under the same user account as when you use the Explorer?

Rebooted, disconnected the drive mapping and made a fresh one. Works!

Again, apologies - it being a Windows system, I should have at least rebooted it a few times :)
