Error Message

Post by pye47 »

Hi, I'm new to all of this but been using it for a while (someone set it up for me). I am getting an error message - invalid username or password. I haven't changed them since I started using sab. Is there a way I can check/change them?

When do you get this?
When trying to access SABnzbd web interface?
When trying to download something?
Which operating system do you use?
Which version of SABnzbd?

Is your Astraweb subscription still valid?
Check the Astraweb user name and password in Config->Servers.
As you cannot see the password (***), enter it again.

Money came out of my account for the vip subscription so I'm assuming it's still valid.
I checked the config->servers and re-entered the password, even though I saw it as ********
I saved my settings and tested the connection, but got this message:
502 Invalid username or password

That comes directly from Astraweb.
