I get this error
[Errno 61] (60, '[Errno 5] Input/output error')
when I test the giganews servers. I don't get the error when I route through a VPN using sabnzbd. I don't get the error when I use another newsreader. Only using sabnzbd. I tried completely wiping sabnzbd and it's ini file for a fresh install. I still get the error. I am using OSX high sierra but the error was also on sierra. help appreciated.actually maybe this is a bug report?

Can you disable logging in the Status and Interface settings Window?
You run using the installer right? Not from sources?

yes, using installer.
There doesn't seem to be an option to disable logging in the status and interface settings window . just "show logging" which d/l a text log file.

Next to it there is a dropdown menu where you can select the logging level, set it to Errors/Warnings.

OK done. I notice it prints my password plaintext in the log file like this:
password=<PASSWORD> /myactualpw/"
like that, with that trailing quote and without the slashes

Thorough testing ... well done!

No, not a bug. It's a network problem, both shown 1) by your testing and 2) by the error code 61, which is MacOS speak for connectiong refused.
I don't know if MacOS has Python installed. If so, run the three commands below, and post the output here.
Code: Select all
python -c "import socket, sys; s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM); s.settimeout(5); s.connect((sys.argv[1], 119)); print s.recv(160); s.close() " 127.0.0.1
Code: Select all
python -c "import socket, sys; s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM); s.settimeout(5); s.connect((sys.argv[1], 119)); print s.recv(160); s.close() " newszilla.xs4all.nl

As refence:
Code: Select all
server:~ sander$ python -c "import socket, sys; s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM); s.settimeout(5); s.connect((sys.argv[1], 119)); print s.recv(160); s.close() " 127.0.0.1

Oh, and for reference:
Code: Select all
server:~ sander$ time python -c "import socket, sys; s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM); s.connect((sys.argv[1], 119)); print s.recv(160); s.close() " 144.44.44.44

File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/socket.py", line 228, in meth
return getattr(self._sock,name)(*args)
socket.error: [Errno 60] Operation timed out
real 1m15.751s
user 0m0.022s
sys 0m0.013s
server:~ sander$
So, on MacOS:
[Errno 60] Operation timed out
[Errno 61] Connection refused
... you the "[Errno 61] Connection refused", so connection is actively refused

Right but other programs can open a connection to this addr and port. I do have python. Will look at home.
This is also a change in behaviour. I've been using sabnzbd for a very long time. It is recent.

I also see reports that this specific errno 5 is something specific to packaged python programs.
Let's see what Sander's tests reveal.
Could be also some firewall software blocking sabnzbd? Just a guess since we had no other reports and also works fine on our test systems with same macOS version.

ok I ran this
python -c "import socket, sys; s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM); s.settimeout(5); s.connect((sys.argv[1], 119)); print s.recv(160); s.close() " news.giganews.com

So that seems fine right? news.gignanews.com is my news server
Sander's 2 other tests
python -c "import socket, sys; s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM); s.settimeout(5); s.connect((sys.argv[1], 119)); print s.recv(160); s.close() " 127.0.0.1

maybe a firewall of some kind will take a look

OK I got it. The VPN is vyprvpn. It was set so that it firewalls sabnzbd unless the vpn is up. that's it, that was the problem. I didn't do it on purpose or even know the vpn was capable of doing that. Anyway, thanks!

Yeah, I'm good at analysis and deduction...
