NZB7 integration

Hello all,

I am trying to integrate SABnzbd with NZB7, yes I followed their step-by-step procedures and still nothing gets pushed to the SABnzbd queue.

Tried using the API key, the NZB key and disabling the API key altogether, but still SABnzbd has no files in its queue.
When I just d/l the nzb, SABnzbd see the nzb in the watched folder and add it to the queue, but not when I use the "Send to SABnzbd" button or the SABnzbd icons

On the NZB7 site, I have the correct key and option selected (even mixed and matched those in troubleshooting) still no "pushing" of files to SABnzbd's queue.

My only assumption is the url of my SABnzbd installation is not correct.
I used http://localhost:8080/sabnzbd/ and the HTTPS https://localhost:9090/sabnzbd/... still no files in SABnzbd queue.
Even tried http://localhost:8080/sabnzbd/api?mode= ... ml&apikey="removed my key but it was the same as the Full key from SABnzbd"

Sent an email to webadmin on NZB7.com and I am waiting for a reply.

I can't be the olny one that is having issues, if I am then can someone give me what thier settings are, so I may verify (I feel I have tried all combos but you never know).

Thanks for your time,


Mosie

For external sites to be able to push NZBs to your system, you need to expose it to the internet.
This setup is tricky and potentially unsafe, unless you know what you're doing.
It involves setting up SABnzbd to listen to external computers (not your current setup)
and setting up port-redirection in your router. Also it is absolutely necessary to set a proper username and password in SABnzbd.

It's safer to use a browser add-on like nzbdStatus for Firefox.
