New Problem That Started Three Days Ago

Post by BigReid »

Have used sabnzbd for some time now, and have found it to be among the best for dealing with Usenet.

However, a quite annoying problem started just three days ago.

I can still download anything small, say, a 5 or 10 meg MP3 file, with no problem.

However, any NZB of any substantial size, no longer works.

As of three days ago, when I click on an NZB, for a program of any size above, say, 500 meg on upwards, sabnzb, on its
top bar, where it says how much time is left, gives ludacris values, that count irregularly.

And when I go to check the logs for that particular NZB, it states that the files required, are missing from all servers, even though
the NZB was posted only 8 or so days ago.

Ok, so, no problem. As in the past, this simply meant that the file, or program has been pulled from the server.

However, I figure alright, so, let me try another large file attempt, and the same thing happens again.

Now what are the odds that after months and months of sabnzbd working flawlessly for me on any NZB I loaded, now, any
large file I try to retrieve, is yielding these odd behaviors/errors. Not every large file/program has been pulled from every server.

Then I go back and try a small file again, and it works. Try another large file, get these errors again.

So I did a complete uninstall of sabnzbd, even cleaning up what the standard uninstall doesnt do, like left over folders on the hard drive, entries
in the Registry. A complete cleanup, reboot, and install of the newest sabnzbd, which right now is 0.7.9, and the problem is right back again.

Sure hope there is a logical explanation for this, as sabnzbd has never failed me to this point.

A little about my system:

Running sabnzbd on Windows 7 Ultimate x64, Intel X9650 Quad Core, 8 Gig System RAM, Giganews account.

Like I said, never a single problem, until now.

You are aware that lots of material from Usenet is being deleted?
Does going back to an older release change anything?
