SABnzbd Forums

Hello, I am fairly new to the sabnzbd installation on my QNAP TS-439 Pro II. I installed python along with sabnzbd and got it setup and running. I added a NZB file and I am told there is no free space. I have about 2000 GBs of free space. I have checked other posts and I am not clear on what I am suppose to do. I believe sabnzbd has all permissions since I am logged in as the admin.
Any help would be appreciated.

Did you set a size threshold?
It could be that somehow the OS returns size info that Python's runtime system doesn't understand.
What happens if you just clear the threshold?

Thanks for the reply. I am new to this. How would I reset the threshold?

I am logged in as the admin. I believe there is no threshold for the admin?

The threshold is in SABnzbd: Config->Folders
BTW: Who tells you there's not enough space? SABnzbd?

Sorry I'm in the folders and I don't see anything about reseting the threshold. Also Sabnzbd tells me that there is not enough space through warnings.

Please look more carefully:
Minimum Free Space for Temporary Download Folder

If it's already empty, there's something wrong with Python you installed.

The Minimum Free Space for Temporary Download Folder is at 3G. I assume that means 3GBs?

It means 3 Giga Bytes.
What is the exact warning text you get?

It tells me that there is 0.00GB of free space when I resume my download, but when I pause my download it gives me the warning that there is not enough space to complete my downloads. Thanks again for helping me with this problem.

What happens if you just erase the threshold setting?
3 GB isn't exactly a large amount of diskspace, especially not if you're trying to download a full DVD.

How do I erase the threshold? Do I set it to a bigger number or reset it to 0?

Just set it to 0.

I set it to 0 and I am still getting the same results. I experimented around with 3G and 12G, the results were still the same. It still told me I have 0 space left.

Can you access the webinterface of SABnzbd? If so, what does SAB itself say there about free space? In my SAB Plush interface, the free space is in the upper right corner.


And: do you have different partitions on your harddisk in your NAS? Or do you have more than one disk?
