SABnzbd Forums

Hi. For about a week my post processing keeps failing. I can watch the process in Sabnzdb. I see the file downloading and then see it unpacking. It then says "Moving" and then it keeps failing.

I am using Sabnzbd in conjunction with Sickbeard.

I think it's related to changes I made to get files downloaded straight to my server rather than my Mac, but I cant figure out how to fix it.

I have the following in Sabnzdb:-

FOLDERS

Temporary Download folder: /Volumes/WDTVLiveHub/_Incomplete
Completed Downloads Folder: /Volumes/WDTVLiveHub/Complete

CATEGORIES

Folder / Path: /Volumes/WDTVLiveHub/Complete

The error message in Sabnzdb says this:

[trollied.2x07.hdtv_x264-fov] Unpacked 1 files/folders in 1 minute 12 seconds
Failed moving /Volumes/WDTVLiveHub/_Incomplete/Trollied.2x07.HDTV.x264-FoV.3/.smbdeleteAAA5fea4.4 to /Volumes/WDTVLiveHub/Complete/_UNPACK_Trollied.2x07.HDTV.x264-FoV/.smbdeleteAAA5fea4.4

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Is /Volumes/WDTVLiveHub/Complete reachable and writable for the SABnzbd process and user?

IMHO it's safer to let SABnzbd unpack to a local drive, and then let it move by SAB via the default category Folder/Path. See http://localhost:8080/config/categories/ . Reason: If that doesn't work, the download is still safely stored in your Completed folder.

Hi. Yes its reachable. I can see the folders being created. Just falls over when its finished unpacking and then tries to move the end product. I then have to do manual post processing in Sick Beard to finish off the process.

I'll change the directories back to the local drive and see if it makes a difference.

Thanks.

Yep- that did the trick. Cheers.
