For some reason SABNZBD is dropping connections to Astraweb. At first I thought it was related to my ISP but if I use another downloader like Alt. Binz it works without problems. When I watch it seems SABNZBD makes all of the connections and then immediately drops them. I am then unable to download any files. It trys to reconnect but the same thing occurs. I am receiving no errors. Any ideas on the cause? I immediately thought it was something related to my ISP but after using another downloader without problems it has to be something related to SABNZBD. BTW, I am using A Windows Home server EX470. I have attached a logfile.
UPDATE:
Seems to me I have found the problem. Twonky Media Server (comes preloaded with Windows Home Server) has some kindof memory leak thus hogging all of my resources on my rig. Thus affecting SABNZBD to run correctly. I guess SABNZBD's way of saying that it needs more resources is to drop connections. This post might be helpful for those with similar problems. BTW I am running 4.12 of SABZND and its installed as a service.

What's your timeout? Are you using the closest server (like the EU one for Europe).?
What sort of error messages do you get?
The team uses several Astraweb accounts, but apart from some intermittent retention issues
we never see problems with them.
Re: SABNZBD Connections Dropping
I didn't attach the logfile because it was too big. Also, because I have found the solution to the problem I figured it wasn't neccessary... Thanks for your interest though. I wish SABNZBD had an error output when this kind of thing happened though because I had a lot of trouble tracking down the problem.

Like most software ours relies on runtime libraries (in this case of the Python language),
which don't tell our program that the runtime system is choking due to resource shortage,
but instead just goes haywire.
I sympathize with you and agree that such problems are hard to diagnose.
