Fresh install alpha3, not connecting to servers

I was using the latest final version just fine and decided to try out alpha3, it has the internet API only feature that I very much want. Everything was working fine, then things stopped working. I can no longer download anything. I've tried restarting my computer, force disconnect, clearing the queue and starting over, nothing seems to help. Sabnzb+ is running as admin so it's not a permission issue. "Test Connection" passes so it's not a connection issue. The log gives absolutely no errors whatsoever. The only thing I can maybe think that might be breaking things, is that sometimes when I restart I get an error saying to look at the .exe.log file.

The .exe.log file contains this:

Code: Select all

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "SABnzbd.py", line 1864, in <module>
  File "SABnzbd.py", line 1550, in main
  File "sabnzbd\zconfig.pyo", line 97, in set_bonjour
  File "sabnzbd\utils\pybonjour.pyo", line 1131, in DNSServiceRegister
  File "sabnzbd\utils\pybonjour.pyo", line 285, in _errcheck
sabnzbd.utils.pybonjour.BonjourError: (-65563, 'unknown')
It just repeats over and over again. Maybe it's related?

I changed my settings from listening from 0.0.0.0 to 127.0.0.1 and things started working again. This is obviously not a solution since I can't access sabnzbd+ from outside my network but it'll do until I can find out why it's doing this.

Did you install Bonjour support? Possibly when installing iTunes or iCloud Drive.
I'll look into it.

In the mean time, edit the sabnzbd.ini file with a text editor (like Notepad).
Look for the line

Code: Select all

enable_bonjour = 1
Change it to

Code: Select all

enable_bonjour = 0
Save the file and start SABnzbd again.

This describes where to find the sabnzbd.ini file: http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/configure-0-7

It seems that on Windows Bonjour can have some unexpected problems.
The current code did not handle this very well.
The next release will prevent this crash.
