sabnzbd and Synology 212: write error

Hi All,

I am trying to set up my Synology 212J with sabnzbd and sickbeard.
I installed the packages and configured them, sickbeard seems to work in searching for a new episode and setting sabnzbd to download.
Once downloaded, it continues to extract the file, however I get the following error

"Unpacking failed, write error or disk full?"

I have double checked my folder names, tried setting chmod -R permissions on the Incomplete and Complete folders

If anyone can help? Thanks in advance!

Open the log file (Status page) and look for errors and warnings.

Hi shypike,
I've decided to start fresh and reset/reinstalled DSM 4.0

I added the Zebulon packages, installed python and then sabnzbd. After configuring my news server, i get the following repeating errors;

ERROR: Cannot create directory /volume1/downloads/incomplete

seems to be an issue with permissions?

Possibly. Does the path /volume1 exist and is SABnzbd allowed to write there?

good news

/volume1 does exist, sabnzbd was looking for /volume1/downloads/incomplete, that didn't exist
I created /downloads/ and sabnzbd created incomplete and complete folders

tested a small nzb and it worked!

next step is to get sickbeard going
