Good day.
This is my first post and I would like to start off by saying that sabnzbd is a very awesome piece of software.
I've used it on a few machines including xp, vista and ubuntu, but for some reason I get this strange problem when I install it on my laptop which has antix linux.
When I add an nzb file it starts downloading like it always does, but nothing actually gets downloaded ie. where it says for eg. "Queue: 123.45/123.45" it would stay that like for hours, even though the speed shows for eg. "Speed: 400KB/s"
Any idea what could be wrong?

Do you see any connections being made in the Connections page?

Yes all 20 are there.
I also ran the program with debugging, these are the last couple of lines:
Code: Select all
2010-04-23 13:47:18,906::DEBUG::[bpsmeter:60] bps: 42771.9222479
2010-04-23 13:47:23,999::DEBUG::[bpsmeter:60] bps: 42735.7886982
2010-04-23 13:47:29,002::DEBUG::[bpsmeter:60] bps: 44261.7458474
2010-04-23 13:47:34,011::DEBUG::[bpsmeter:60] bps: 44912.412806
and it just continues on like that but the remaining file size in sabnzbd doesn't change.

You have specified more than 0 connections for every servers?
They're not all backup servers?
Did you try:
to check if your system has connectivity at all?
It's always possible that the Python implementation for your platform is defective.

Yeah I only have 1 server setup (astraweb) and I set it to use 20 connections. The backup server option is not ticked and the enabled option is ticked.
I will try the telnet command later when I get home. I'm not sure if it matters, but I set my server up to use SSL. I'll try using it with the SSL option off as well to see what happens.
It's weird though, because my windows 7 pc which sits right next to my laptop also has sabnzbd on it and has no problems at all.

Try without SSL, for testing.
Some servers use different ports for SSL (and some may make you pay extra).
SSL depends on correct OpenSSL and PyOpenSSL libraries.

Ok, so I tried withouth SSL and still the same thing happens. I even reinstalled sabnzbd but that didn't work.
Eventually however it started downloading again. very weird. I suspect it had something to do with my ISP.
