NZB urls changed to "http-++"

Post by parsedout »

My NZB urls are automatically being changed by Sab to "http-++" and all of the "/" are being changed to "+".

Here is an example of a URL as I paste it into "Add NZB"
http://www.nzbindex.nl/download/1010184 ... 58.zip.nzb

Here is how it shows in sabnzbd
Trying to fetch NZB from http-++www.nzbindex.nl+download+101018496+Family-Guy-s12e11-480p-HDTV-x264-mp4-NIT158.zip.nzb

This is on a fresh install of sabnzbd on a fresh install of Ubuntu 12.04. All of the settings are default except for the download location (which has 777 rights) and the usenet server info.

I'm not a newbie to sabnzbd, I've tried screwing around with this for a few hours now. At a loss...any help would be appreciated.

Are you sending these URLs through the API?
You should use url-quoting.
Replace all special characters with % codes.
