sabnzbd stopped moving my movie files to correct location

I am currently using sabnzbd 0.7.5 on my Synology 1512+ NAS. Everything has been working great. But for the past day or so I've noticed that after a movie finishes downloading, it just sits in my download folder. Before, upon completion it would move the movie folder into the proper location. Now it doesn't. I'm not sure what happened. I tried restarting and even did a manual shutdown and restart as well to see if it would fix it, and no luck. This only happens for my movies category.

I have not changed any settings prior to this, everything has been the same. I tried to perform a queue repair a few times, and I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it not functioning. I remember that when I choose to repair the queue that sabnzbd would perform a shutdown and restart back up automatically. But now it just shuts down the entire service permanently. I have to manually restart the service back up. Sounds like the repair queue option isn't even functioning correctly for me. If i can recall, last time when performing a queue repair it would shutdown sabnzbd and restart the web service back up.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but it was working fine and then all a sudden all my movies remain in the download folder and doesn't automatically get moved to their proper location. I would appreciate if someone can please help me fix this problem. Since I run Plex Media Server and XBMC, it's vital that this works so that everything is automated.

Check your paths in Config->Folders and Config->Categories.
Check the download reports (click on History entry).

Okay I double checked the paths in those 2 places you mentioned and its been the same, nothing has changed, and I also clicked on the history report for that movie, it seems fine. But the file still hasn't moved. The status shows thats its been unpacked, and repaired successfully. But still remains in the completed download folder. :( It use to move the file to my "movies" folder and now it has stopped doing that.

Nope, everything is the same. I haven't changed any settings at all.

If SABnzbd puts the files in the folder that is set in Config->Folders and Config->Categories,
then its work is done.
Possibly you had a post-processing script or some other tool as well.

Weird, maybe I should shutdown my NAS and restart it? Because it seems to be acting funny when attempting to repair the queue. it would shut down sabnzbd but won't ever restart it.

I have no post processing scripts selected for my movies category.
