Started seeing a whole raft of of the following warning - doesn't seem to affect use although I am getting a whole load more failed blocks errors in general:
API Key incorrect, Use the api key from Config->General in your 3rd party program: 192.168.0.20>python-requests/2.7.0 CPython/2.7.11 Linux/3.10.35

started seeing it after I had a Sab crach needing a reinstall and also updating python

Thanks

Explanation of

Code: Select all

192.168.0.20>python-requests/2.7.0 CPython/2.7.11 Linux/3.10.35

There is a python program on Linux system with IP address 192.168.0.20 which is trying to access your SABnzbd API, but it is not using the correct API key.

Remarks:
- that "python program" might be couch potato, or sonarr, or ...
- if you did set up something very wrong, it might also be SABnzbd itself trying to access its own API interfac (rare).
- if you did a fresh setup deleting sabnzbd.ini, you got a new API key, which would explaing the above

Thanks.
As it happened when everything went pear-shaped it didn't occur to me to see if there was a file I could copy/save to preserve all my settings so I did an uninstall and reinstall and had to re-enter the settings.
Only CP and sickrage to my knowledge make api calls to Sab and I updated both of these with the new API and both seem to be working okay.

If so what else might it be please and how do I check?
Only started now I think about it after I activated the new ozb integrated features to check quality of files etc

[wigwam12]

I've double-checked the API in CP and Sick
I am wondering is the error is being generated by the OZNZB integration?
I have entered the OZ API in SAB but have now also added the Sab NZB key into OZ so will see if that changes anything
Everything seems to be working okay just the error list is a bit irritating

Do you agree 192.168.0.20 is a system on your LAN?
If so: can you find it? On each system, type "ifconfig" (Linux, OSX) or "ipconfig" (Windows). My guess it is NOT your router.
Once you find the system, find the process that's connecting to SAB's API.

You really should be able to find it.

If not ... ignore the message. Maybe irritating, but harmless.

192.168.0.20 is the IP address assigned to the Xpenology box
All the apps (CP/SAB/Sick/Trasmission) are ports from this IP address
