SabNZBD Constantly asking for Username/Password

Post by fognl »

I'm cross-posting this from the ReadyNasXtras forum just in case someone here has any ideas.

First off, I'm probably running an older version of SabNZBD (v0.7.10) as its the latest I can get packaged for my Netgear ReadyNas duo v2. Though, this has happened over a couple of versions. Also, I'm well aware that this may be specific to me running this on my NAS, either way, I'm hoping someone has an idea:

At first I wasn't having this issue, but after a while what would happen is when I go to the web interface, I would get asked the username and password, I would enter it, and the page would start to load. Then it would ask for user/pass again, over and over and over I would enter it in and the page would load up certain pieces at a time. I enter the correct user/pass because I don't get the Error 401 Unauthorized unless I hit cancel. Its very very frustrating, to the point where I try to avoid the web interface if at all possible. When the interface does load, and I want to do something like change the category of a download, it'll ask for the user/pass again, etc.

I've tried this on different computers and web browsers, all the same.

Any thoughts/suggestions? (Oh, and this doesn't happen with Sickbeard)

It looks like a platform specific issue, possibly cookie handling fails.
I had someone test it on a ReadyNAS Ultra 6 (Intel Atom) and the problem does not occur.
I think you should file a complaint at the site where you got your package from.

This is what I suspected, and I have already posted in there forums a week ago to no response. Thank you for your response.
