SABnzbd Forums

Good morning all,
I looking for help getting going with my sabnzb, couch, & sickb install. Here is what i am working with.
1.Mac Mini running OSX 10.8.3
2. Synology ds412+ for storage of files.
3. IPV4
4. Linkis dir655 router running WPA2 encryption
5. Install type: Python source
6. Install guide used to set up: combination of Apple Media Center Guide (youtube), Cut the Cable(josiah, now removed from youtube), and saalecomputing's guide (youtube). All similar in explaination of configuration.
7. Usnet provider: Supernews

My setup for downloading.
I don't use the packages on the synology to setup downloads. I use the nas to direct everything to it from the mac mini. I have sab, couch, and sick setup on mac mini with everything directed to folders on the nas.

Here is the issues I'm having. Let's begin with CouchP.
For some reason with everything configured properly i assume. I can't get it to throw anything into sabnzbd. it will say that it is fetched or downloaded but when i check error log is says "2013-05-25 10:01:56,546 ERROR: Cannot create directory /Volumes/Downloads/incomplete". Nothing goes to "incomplete" folder i created in this directory on ds412+. Tried several times. Please advise

SickB issues:
-Configuration seems correct. I only put in one show to see how it would work but I can't get it to put them in season folders under the "show name" folder. Also Sick doesn't show that any shows have been downloaded in its count even though i have 3 season's fully received. Please advise. Remaining episodes (season 4-7)information is stuck in "incomplete folder" (that I created).
-Renaming is an issue too. According to configuration I should be getting this: Season 02/Show Name 02x03 - Ep Name.ext....but what i actually get is this: Dexter.S02E01.1080p.BluRay.x264-HDMI(folder) with MKV,NFO, & SFV files inside. Don't want the naming to be like this. Please help.

Version: 0.7.11
OS: OSX 10.8.3
Install-type: OSX app
Skin (if applicable): Default
Firewall Software: None
Are you using IPV6? bo
Is the issue reproducible? Happens every time i run either program so far.

No wonder SABnzbd doesn't do anything.
Are you sure that /Volumes/Downloads is a valid path and if so, does SABnzbd have permission to write there?

how do i check to make sure that sab has permission to write there?

Can you create folders there using Finder?

I have only created folders using the synology control center. If i create them using Finder, does it make a difference. Also, I went into Sab config this morning and noticed that the 777 was missing from Permissions for completed downloads. The other item missing that i can't seem to get back is the sabtosickbeard.py script from the drop down box in categories. Scripts folder is set up correctly according to guide but the only options i have are as follows in this order: Default, Download, Repair, Unpack, and Delete.

The scripts also need to be marked as "executable".

Shypike. Thanks for all your help so far. Sometimes us noobs need to recheck a couple of things and it gets better once we realize where the fault is====user error.Ok. Went and rechecked all config settings. Did a restart of computer and sab. Things are working except for one minor caveat now. iF you could help out with this one it would be greatly appreciated. After a dwnld is complete. I check all the icons and when i see "(more)" I look at the log and it gives an error 401: You need to provide a valid username and password. When i check my "complete" folder it is there but unprocessed with the renaming i set forth from Couch. I don't know if you can provide advice on this one but if you can please do. I am a little confused as to which program should be doing the post processing. RIght now i have Couch attempting to do the heavy lifting but should i be using sab for best results?

Cannot reproduce the "more" problem, what kind of script are you running.
SABnzbd can do full verify/repair/unpack. CP is usually just left with moving files to their final destination
and bookkeeping when CP is trying multiple sources.
