SABnzbd Forums

Hi forum,

I'm fairly new to SABnzbd and have this question:

I'm running version 0.3.0 on XP.
At first I had my downloads stored on a USB harddisk that has fat32 filesys with PLENTY OF DISKSPACE.

All went well, but at a certain moment, after completely downloading necessary files, I saw this message:


Stage Unrar
    [RAR-INFO] file.se2d6.nl: => ERROR: write error, disk full?
    [RAR-INFO] file.se2d3: => ERROR: write error, disk full?
    [RAR-INFO] file.se2d1.nl: => ERROR: write error, disk full?
    [RAR-INFO] file.s02d5: => ERROR: write error, disk full?
    [RAR-INFO] file.s02d4: => ERROR: write error, disk full?
    [RAR-INFO] file.s02d2: => ERROR: write error, disk full?

As stated, the disk was not full, so what happened?
As the files were to be put together to an >5GB iso image, could it be that the fat32 filesystem was in the way??

I tried to move all these files to another USB disk with ext3 filesystem, then adjusted settings in config/directories and restarted SABnzbd.
But nothing happened. - The files are in the complete dir.

How can I have SABnzbd reprocess these files? Or is there any other way to process them and reassemble the original file?

Thanks a lot!

You cannot repeat post-processing.
Use the unrar program manually.

unrar x blabla.rar

FAT32 does not support files above 4G, so too small for a full ISO image (4.7G).

Thanks for your reply!
Will simly unrar-ing do its thing when it comes to repair and PAR2 stuf??

Would it be an option to put the files in a \complete\__UNPACK_IN_PROGRESS__filename
Thanks a lot!

If you suspect problems, you need to run par2 manually too.

par2 r any-par-file

If SABnzbd has already removed the PAR2 files, that means the verification/repair was OK.

Okay, thanks for helping out.
My rar experience is a bit lacking...

I have a folder with something like 578 files totalling 26.2 GB containing about 6 DVD's.
I have nfo, sfv files as well and for each DVD there seem to be 29 real rar files for each DVD and then each time from #30  to #92 empty rar-like files...

How do I give the unrar command to unrar them all and stitch the corresponding ones together to create the iso files?
I'd like to do this from linux cli if possible.

Thanks for helping out!!

The names of files usually tell you which are the sets.
Just start unrar with the first rar file of each set (that's 6 times).
unrar will figure out which other files it needs.
