Failed downloads (missing from server)

Hi everyone

I just got sabnzbd set up for the first time on my htpc with sonarr and couchpotato. I have 3 indexers and i use frugal usenet with usenet.farm block. Everything was working fine for the first day or so, then suddenly all downloads fail with 430 missing article. I tried a bunch of different nzb's, new and old one to no avail. Tried restarting and repairing. I've attached my log. Can anyone help me out. That would be awesome. TY

The log indicates that they're simply missing on the server.
You can try other Usenet software with the same NZB files.
Try Grabit: straightforward, less automation, but it does the job.

Hi Shypike

Thank you for your quick response. It's greatly appreciated. Hmm really weird. I tried three series with the same response. Ranging from a month old to six. As I said I have frugal which has 600 days retention with a Usenet.farm block as backup that should have 1000+ Days.

Is there a way to extract the nzb from the sabnzbd queue as I'm running a automated setup and wanna make sure I test the right one.

Thanks again.

The compressed NZB file (bla.nzb.gz) lives in the __ADMIN__ folder of the job folder in the temporary download folder.

Thanks a bunch. I will test and confirm if it's a server issue.

Ok so I get failed downloads with different clients too. Both on frugal and usenet.farm servers. So should i change servers, or can it be the indexers thats bad? (altHUB + drunkenslug + a free one). Thx for your help troubleshooting!!
