Completed downloads going to wrong folder...

Post by jamwee »

Howdy!

I am running Sabnzbd (0.7.3) on Freenas (8.3.0) - Sickbeard/Couchpotato are firing files over correctly, that is all good. However, when my downloads are complete they seem to be going to the wrong location.

Under Config > Folders I have set /SABNZBD/Incomplete, /SABNZBD/Complete and /SABNZBD/Watch (http://i.imgur.com/UVfm8.png). Partial files appear in the correct incomplete folder, but for some reason complete files don't go into the complete folder (I believe my categories are set up correctly - http://i.imgur.com/JHyIz.png). Instead they go into the folder I have told Sickbeard/CP to move them to during post-processing - /TVshows, /Movies.

I'm fairly new to all this, and this is my first set up - any help would be much appreciated! :)

Thanks,

Jamie

Did you set the correct end-of-job scripts for SickBeard and CouchPotato?

Hi Shypike,

The guide I followed didn't make mention of any end-of-job scripts...I have set SickBeard/CouchPotato to look in /SABNZBD/Complete/category for completed files, and then set renaming parameters, etc. Example - http://i.imgur.com/pm5VG.png, not sure if that's what you mean?

Thanks for the help!

Where SABnzbd puts its files, depends on the category of the NZB and that category's path setting.
Are you sure you set them right?

This is my first set up...but it looks right!

There are the settings I have for categories / their paths: http://i.imgur.com/Ho03v.png

I have a big list of downloads and they appear to be categorised correctly as tv/movies.

Thanks,

Jamie

Are you aware that when you start a category path with a slash, it will be
an absolute path and the result will be /TVShows and not /SABnzbd/Complete/TVShows ?
Remove the slashes.

I did not know that. Now I do, and it works perfectly.

Thanks! :)
