Help with upgrading SABNZBd from 4 to 5 and keeping history

Post by Mock »

i upgraded my Synology NAS with SABNZBd 0.4.11 to 0.5 and backuped all the old files. is there a new database structure? Or is there away to keep my total download amount and download history. I remeber from old installation there was a file with the total download i just had to edit.

Alas: we decided not to spend time on such a feature.

The history is now a sqlite database.
This enables us to keep up the compatibility in the future.
So this should be the last time you loose your download history.

it was also what I figured. which probably also makes it alot faster when having a large history, especially when running from a NAS
