I'm stuck on the "Skin Detection Routine"

Post by rakers8 »

I was changing around the different skins and after choosing to "restart sabnzbd" all I get is this screen:

I've tried safe mode and looking around in ini files for skin specific keywords to no avail. I'm trying to dodge a complete reinstall to preserve my settings so I wanted to check here first. Any ideas? I can't seem to find anyone else that's encountered the same problem on google.

Stop SABnzbd, find sabnzbd.ini, open it, and find "web_dir". Change "web_dir" to "Plush". See below. Save the file and start SABnzbd.

sander@R540:~/.sabnzbd$ grep -i web_dir sabnzbd.ini
web_dir2 = Classic
web_dir = Plush
sander@R540:~/.sabnzbd$

That fixed it, thank you. In case your curious, web_dir had changed to "Classic" and web_dir 2 had empty "" next to it. Somehow that happened while messing around with the skins gui -- musta found a bug.
