Missing permissions on files for incomplete downloads

Post by exxos »

Hi,

I've installed Sabnzbd 0.6.15 on debian Wheezy and despite of setting up 777 on complete folders permissions, the downloads that are finished as incompleted, have files with 600 mask.
This means that with users different than root or the one used to run Sabnzbd, I cannot remove the incomplete downloads.

This is a mess especially if you consider that the previous version 0.4.x is not affected.

Could you please advise on this issue ?

Regards
exxos.

Actually, if you change the umask outside of SABnzbd (so, before staring it), it will
use that value for incomplete files.

Hi,

An alternative. In the following post you mentioned that starting from the 0.6.x, a feature will be added to remove files automatically in the incomplete folder : http://forums.sabnzbd.org/viewtopic.php?t=4599&start=0

Is it still in the loop of expected features?

Regards,

When removing a job from the queue you will be asked if the
downloaded files should be removed.
Same for failed jobs in History.
The 0.7.x series has a scheduled event that will clear up failed jobs.
