fresh install of v0.7.20 on Ubuntu 14.10 giving errors

hey all.
i had been using an older version of SAB on opensuse 12.1. last week i moved to Ubuntu 14.10 and installed SAB 0.7.20. i have it configured correctly (i think) but i am getting a lot of errors.
in the queue it sometimes says "unusable rar file" and in the status page, it says "error importing". i have unrar v 5.11 installed and as far as i know par2 is installed, although i am unsure how to check.
my next problem is that sometimes i get the "not enough repair blocks" error. i have a block account setup as a backup, but i can't see where SAB is connecting to it to help repair the download.
can anyone provide any help?
hopefully i'm not completely taking out of my ass.

Do you have multiple unrar versions installed?
Possibly SABnzbd cannot reach the right one.
Have you tried repairing from the command line?
par2 r FIRST-PAR2-FILE *

as far as i know, i only have 1 version of unrar
Code: Select all
unrar --version | head -4
UNRAR 5.11 freeware Copyright (c) 1993-2014 Alexander Roshal
Usage: unrar <command> -<switch 1> -<switch N> <archive> <files...>
and that SAB is using the right one
Code: Select all
grep "unrar binary" ~/.sabnzbd/logs/sabnzbd.log
2015-03-26 19:39:10,890::INFO::[sabnzbdplus:468] unrar binary... found (/usr/bin/unrar)
2015-03-26 20:05:03,739::INFO::[sabnzbdplus:468] unrar binary... found (/usr/bin/unrar)
2015-03-26 20:38:09,608::INFO::[sabnzbdplus:468] unrar binary... found (/usr/bin/unrar)
2015-03-26 20:38:26,895::INFO::[sabnzbdplus:468] unrar binary... found (/usr/bin/unrar)
i definitely have par2 installed, but didn't try repairing from the cmd line. the repairing error happens a lot less often than the "unusable rar" error

What happens if you copy the RAR files to a pc and you try to unpack?
There's also the possibility that the poster just screwed up.

i *may* have solved the problem.
all of my TV downloads go into UnsortedTV. this is the same folder that SAB uses to unrar. i think sickrage was trying to post-process the files before SAB was done with it.
i created a new a folder called "unpack" where SAB will unrar my files. i have since grabbed 5 shows and haven't had any errors.
