SabNZBd has a build in protection system that reverts the temporary download directory to Downloads/Complete if the directory configured is missing. This causes my server to fill up the wrong disk if my RAID array is offline.
Can you please make this feature optional?
If the download directory is missing i would like SabNZBd to pause.

Re: SabNZBd reverts to wrong directory
Which one is it? The "temporary download folder" or the "completed download folder"?reverts the temporary download directory to Downloads/Complete
You're contradicting yourself.
The "temporary download folder" is a must for SABnzbd, it's where its queue data is stored.
It's not an option.
The only work-around is to check its existence before starting SABnzbd.
Re: SabNZBd reverts to wrong directory
I ment the temporary download folder, and the check you speak of should (in my opionion) be part of the SabNZBd config.

What are the options?
Bailing out with a fatal error?
Waiting? How long? Wouldn't that be confusing too?
