Web interface won't display

Post by Chuckman »

Hello everyone :)

Ever since I've reinstalled SABnzbd (currently trying 0.7.1.1) the web interface will not display no matter what I do.

I'm using Opera 12.14 64-bit running on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. If any of you could find out what I'm doing wrong then it would be appreciated.

Is SABnzbd running at all? Check: go to Windows Task Manager (or what is is called), go to tab Processes, and find SABnzbd.exe. If it is there, End it.

Now open a terminal ("CMD"), go to the directory \Program*\SABnzbd*\ . There is a file sabnzbd-console.exe. Run that. It should give a lot of output. Correct?

It should also say on which port it is running. Connect to that port.

Hi Sander thanks for replying.

I've done what you said and it keeps hanging on URLGrabber line in the console.

That's good. In all the lines that are spit out by SAB, search for the line with "Starting web-interface on", like this:

2013-03-14 06:24:24,122::INFO::[sabnzbdplus:1471] Starting web-interface on 127.0.0.1:8080

Found it? What does the line say exactly?

In my case, I must point my browser at http://127.0.0.1:8080/

On mine it says the same.

Clicked on it and things have returned to what they once were.

Thank you very much for your help sander, without I would have been stuck using Forte Agent.

Good that it works.

FYI: normally starting SABnzbd would lead to starting up your webbrowser to the correct SAB page. However, that can be turned off in the (General?) options of SAB, so check that if you want.

That's what it used to do then it stopped doing that and lost access to the program in the process. Now the link you've given me is on my speed dial page so can be used when needed.

"c:\program files (x86)\sabnzbd\sabnzbd.exe" -b1

The -b1 will re-enable browser launching.
The proper URL is http://127.0.0.1:8080/sabnzbd
