SAB hanging when verifying/repairing

Post by jaesun »

I am trying to download a file, but everytime I do try, it sabnzbd seems to hang/get stuck. It gets stuck usually on the verifying process, but I have seen it get stuck on verifying also. It usually gets stuck after the file is first verified (which then states that it has to be repaired). It also sometimes tries a SFV Verification (this usually happens once I kill the par2 process). I then have to kill the sabnzbd process and restart the program.

I have tried restarting sabnzbd to let it verify the download again, tried downloading from scratch (deleting all the files from the incomplete folder), but to no avail.

I am using version 0.7.3, Windows 7 Pro 64bit

The file I am trying to get is:
http://nzbmatrix.com/nzb-details.php?id=1187487
Only 1 file, the MKV. It is about 7.26 GB

Also, The download location is on another computer from the sabnzbd installation (not sure if that makes a difference).

I haven't had any other problems with any other files. Not sure what to do from here?

If it just happens with this post, it's very likely that the post is corrupt beyond repair anyway.
You can try a few things:
- Disable 64 bit tools in Config->Special
- Disable multi-core par2 in Config->Switches
- Download QuickPar and let that have a try at repair.
