After file unpack, directory gets renamed to _EXISTS_

Post by smidley »

Ok, so this is really weird and just started happening this morning. I haven't changed anything, and I've tried restarting Sab.

Whenever I try to download a season of a TV show, after it gets unpacked, the directory gets renamed to _EXISTS_"showname". Also, the first episode of the series seems to be deleted no matter what. Sab doesn't seem to throw any errors about this at all, so I'm really confused.

Running Sab Version: 0.6.14
Windows 2008 R2

Anyone else seeing anything like this?

After doing lots of research, it appears that this is not a valid bug. I think couchpotato was seeing my download folder and assuming all new files in there were movies. it was then trying to rename them and move them automatically.
