Hi I am using sick beard to hand over the downloads too sabnzbd. The download starts fine and I get the progress bar 45mb of 400mb it reaches 400mb then fails with an error about retention. I have swapped servers from one with a years retention too one with three years. Also my mate has the same provider and he downloaded the same file ok.
Here is a log sample

Re: Failed download
The post is not present on the server. It happens, despite long retention times.samba wrote: So looking at that the file does not exist ? yet the progress bar looks as if it is downloading ?
The progress bar only shows how far SABnzbd is through the articles.
The popup in the queue shows how many articles are already found missing.
