actually, the file just finished, and after I deleted the offending RAR file it completed as expected.

It could be a bug in the recursive unpacking that SABnzbd does.
Normally this recursive unpacking works in a seperate folder.
However, in the case of a single folder, may it mistakenly starts
unpacking things in the base folder.
I'll look into this, but it may take a while.

This is the first time I had run across the problem myself, so it's not a frequent bug. For all that Sabnzbd does, I sure can't complain! Thanks a lot for being so responsive. the program is completely awesome.

Hello!

I've got the same issue!
I get the same error on every file I download "Unpacking failed, unable to find 159391.r14"

How do I resolve this?

Check whether that file is actually named in the NZB.
(Set SABnzbd to paused and load the NZB file again.)
If it's missing from the NZB, you're out of luck.

No, there isn't any 159391.r14 when I retry and pause download.
Problem is that this happens to EVERY download, but the file is working anyway!
Even if SABnzbd says there is an "159391.r14" missing error the file works when unrar is done.
Same on all files, just annoying that ever download "fails"...

The error message comes from unrar which for some reason wants that file.
Are you claiming that the problem occurs for each and every NZB file?

This is how my finished downloads look:

I have several pages that looks like this.

Can you enable debug logging (Status page)?
Then download one item that shows this behaviour.
Afterwards download the log file from the Status page and email it
(along with the URL of this message and the NZB file) to bugs@sabnzbd.org
