SABnzbd Forums

I have two installs of the most recent version of SABNZBD. One is on Windows and the other is on Linux and both have the same configuration.

I am getting the error "Repair failed, not enough repair blocks" on my Linux installation but not on my Windows installation. I feed both installs the same NZB but for some reason the Windows installation is able to process the NZB but the Linux installation is not.

Does anyone know what's going on here"

Which version of par2cmdline do you have installed on Linux?
Did the same files download on both systems? Are they the same size?

I'm using Raspbien. Whatever version of par2cmline came with that then thats what I'm using.

I was able to use WinRar on the transfer folder (via a samba share) on my Linux machine and the output file was the same in the one produced on the Windows box.

So you were able to unpack RAR files that where flagged as bad by verification on the Raspien box?

Yes.

... but by connecting to the TV folder via Samba and using WinRar to unpack the files.

That does point to an issue with par2cmdline.
Can you download the same nzb again with post-processing set to "Download".
This will give you all the files.
Check those with your pc.
Then also with an ssh terminal session on the Raspian box,
running par2 manually?

The file is no longer available. When it happens again, I'll run par2 manually and post the results.

I assume you're using the latest SABnzbd release?
0.7.16 or one of the 0.7.17 test releases.
