SABnzbd Forums

Hi, hopefully easy to answer question... Using SABnzbd.04.12 / XP / WinZip-installer / default skin / Xp firewall / no.
Have figuration as instructed (including all the necc. folders), nzb-file loads in appropriate folder and then is correctly recognized by SABnzbd, then appears also correctly in the Que-list. But downloading does not start, nothing happens. What do I do wrong?

You did enter a Usenet server (in Config->Servers) that you are allowed access to?

Hi, yes entered it - copied it directly from the confirmation email I received - There are no errors appearing, either from wrong port, host or any warnings.

Is the server enabled?
Did you fill in the amount of allowed connections (larger than 0).
No SSL when using port 119.
You should not tick the backup server tickbox.
SABnzbd isn't in paused mode?

Are the NZBs not\ beyond the retention time of the server?
Do you see the server name listed on the Connections page?

Hi, thanks for the response.
Server is enabled
Connections = 1
Using port 563 (as adviced by server)
Backup server not ticked
SABnZbd not in pause mode

Currently 2 nzb files in queue list, 2 and 3 days old
Server name in connections page is visible (as sslreader.eweka.nl:563: 0)

I found the problem...
On the page "server configuration" I entered the information provided by the server, it said to use port 119.
The information also said to use port 563 when using SSL, which I interpreted as I had to add a server and enter this information as well... I now removed that and downloading has started immediately... Thanks for the effort in helping me thinking about possible causes, never to old to learn... ;-)
