Extra HDD in Qnap NAS Ts-210 and not working Sabnzbd

[rbeijers]

Hello,

I just put an extra harddisk in my Qnap NAS TS-210. I made a shared folder on it named Films2/HD. Now I try to get the movies I downloaded with Sabnzbd 0.6.1 to get in the "finished folder". This is what I write in the field "finished downloads": /share/HDA_DATA/Films2/HD. Sabnzbd gives no error and I see that he moves the file to that location. But when I open the network drive in windows I don't see the downloaded files. What am I doing wrong? The things I've already tried:
- reboot Sabnzbd
- disable and enable Sabnzbd via the Qnap NAS
- made a directory Films2 and let Sabnzbd make the mapping folder HD into it, this wasn't working also
- i've tried to write down in "finished downloads" the same as the shared folder in windows

Who can help me so it will work???

Thanks in advance and greetings from Holland.
Remco

This is a example for the result of a downloaded file:

Pad:
/share/HDA_DATA/Films2/HD/nova_zembla_armin.5/Nova Zembla (Armin van Buuren Remix).mp3

As you can see is sabnzbd make .5 from the file, because I've tried it a lot of times. So he finished it, but put it not on the place I wanted. Please help me!?!

Did set proper access rights on this disk?
Have you tried to access the disk from a SSH session?

Everyone, admin and administrators has full control.
I didnt log in with ssl. Very strange or not?

First try if you can access the new disk through an ssh session.

First of all, thank you that you want to try to help me.
Second, i've just download putty to make a ssh session. I've logged in on my NAS. But from there I really don't know what I have to type or test right now? Could you help me with this? This is the first time I use putty....?!

Is the extra hard disk storage reachable from a Windows PC?
If so can you read and write to it?

In the ssh session, type commands like this

Code: Select all

cd /share/HDA_DATA/Films2/HD/
ls -l

See what shows
Then type:

Code: Select all

cp /etc/hosts .

See if you get an error message.

I can read and write to the folder in Windows. The stange thing is also: the file in the folder test/test.txt I made on the disk via Windows is not readable in putty. And the files I downloaded to the shared folder are not readable in Windows.

I can see all the files in the folder in putty. But not in Windows. Why is this?

Thank you in advance!

You'll need to set access rights.
Go to SABnzbd's Config->Folders and set the permissions field to 0777
This will only help for new downloads.
For the existing stuff you must use the chmod command from an ssh session.
chmod +R 0777 /share/babla

[rbeijers]

Sabnzbd had already the 0777 permission.

I just formatted my disk again and name the share "Films2". But I got the same problem. Sabnzbd is copying the data to the share, but is not seen in Windows Explorer. When I make a text file in this share in Windows it is not seen in Putty????!!! Do you have please another resolution?

[shypike]

Apparently you don't know the relation between the internal and external path.
That's the first thing you need to find out.
I think you should ask this on the support forum of Qnap.

[rbeijers]

Ok i have also asked the question there. but is there something i can try?

[rbeijers]

I tried to cut the link to finished download folder: /share/HDA_DATA/Films2/Movies and save the empty field. Then I downloaded a file and no i can't see the file in explorer. But before i put the other disk in it, it has always worked. What did i do why it does not work anymore?

[shypike]

I'm sure that SABnzbd happily write to your new disk.
However, I don't think that Windows will see the new disk.
I'm not familiar with Qnap servers, but isn't the new disk another share
that you need to mount on Windows separately?

[rbeijers]

Yes i did that many times. But when I put a new folder in wondows on this share it is not readable in putty, but is readable in web file manager from the qnap nas?!?
