watch folder broken

[mons00n]

My SABnzbd install was updated the other night to 0.7.0Beta2, and now the watch folder is no longer working. It was working for about a year until the update. I'm running Ubuntu10.04 and the SAB install from the ubuntu PPA. I can manually tell it to download a file and that works fine, but putting an nzb file in the watch folder does absolutely nothing; no errors that I can see. I changed the watch folder to different places, different drives, restarted SABnzbd, and none seem to resolve my problem. Is anyone else encountering this issue? Or can someone help me troubleshoot it a bit more? Thanks.

No problems here with 070b3.

First question: does the .NZB stay in your scandir, or is it removed by SAB? Staying is bad, removing is good.

To further analyze your problem: set logging to +Info (via Status tab), then restart SAB (?), put something into your scan directory. If it does not get into SAB, have a look at your log file. Mine shows this:

Code: Select all

2012-04-17 08:28:43,123::DEBUG::[__init__:333] Starting dirscanner

2012-04-17 10:03:09,193::INFO::[dirscanner:317] Trying to import /home/sander/scandir/blabla.nzb

After that, the nzb is downloaded, and the scandir is empty.

grep-ing your sabnzbd.log for the exact name of the .nzb is also useful to see what's going on. Here's mine:

Code: Select all

I'll give those a shot when I get home this evening. I downloaded the source for 0.6.15 and it started working immediately - so I believe it to be something funky with 0.70b2
