Re: Path too long error
You cannot.
The only thing you can do is to let SABnzbd trim down the path elements.
Set the option "folder_max_length" in Config->Special to something like 32.

Re: Path too long error
Thanks. In this case, what if I already removed the job from SAB interface and then I modified the path so that it shortens, is it possible to re-add the job to SAB and let it extract it by itself so that it notifies my CP interface that it successfully finished?
Re: Path too long error
If you renamed the folder in "incomplete", go to Status->QueueRepair.
From there you should be able to add the lost job back to the queue.
