SABnzbd downloads even though nothing displayed in queue

Post by tjfriese »

Yesterday SABnzbd started behaving very strangely...

I am able to download using NZBs even though nothing shows up in the download queue (verified by watching the download directory). When I upload an NZB file the download queue remains empty.

I also get the following error message when I start SABnzbd:

loading postproc1.sab failed

I am running 0.6.14 on a DNS-323 NAS.

Has anyone else experienced this before? Should I reinstall SABnzbd?

Thanks,

Tim

Did you try another skin?
Some embedded systems have a problem with the standard Plush skin.
We have a solution for this in the next release.

I haven't changed the skin. I am going to try a reinstall and see if that helps.

An update...

After reinstaling the source code SABnzbd 0.6.14 was working properly. It crashed at some point (unable to connect through a webbrowser). I restarted SABnzbd and now the download queue is empty even though it is downloading. When a file is finished downloading it still shows up in the History queue for extraction.

It's likely to be the "locale" problem of Plush (or rather that of some embedded linuxes.)
Use a different skin or wait for 0.6.15
BTW: I can send you a link to a test release of 0.6.15,
so that you test this. I would like to get some feedback on this.
PM me if you're interested.
