"Download might fail" unless I submit the file manually

Post by oarking »

I installed CouchPotato last night, set up a few movies to queue, checked back later and every single one of them said "» Download might fail, only 0.0% of required 100.2% available". Ok fair enough. I added a few more providers and same thing. So I go on those same providers and find the nzbs myself then submit to sab manually and they download perfectly the first time without error. The apps are communicating with each other, and the providers show a positive connection with each app. Is it an incorrect setting somewhere? The logs just show the following for each part file.

Code: Select all

But again, if I download the nzb manually and put it in there's no problem. Sorry if this is posted somewhere, I honestly didn't know what terms to search for, the ones I did weren't even remotely related.

Sounds like CP sends incomplete files.
You should try to catch what CP actually sends.
You can use the NZB backup folder in Config->Folders for that.
It is a compressed nzb.gz file, must most unarchivers (WinRar and WinZip) can handle those.
