SABnzbd Forums

Hello,

I have SABnzbd+ 0.5.0 running on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. Since yesterday .nzb files which I have put in my watched folder (Downloads/NZB) aren't queued anymore to be downloaded. I stopped and started SABnzb, but that doesn't solve the problem. Does anyone know what the problem is and how I can resolve it?

Regards,

Wait until your queue is empty and then restart SABnzbd with the
command line option --clean

Hi Shypike,

I tried it. I'm getting the following output:

martijn@vancouver:~$ /etc/init.d/sabnzbdplus restart --clean
* Stopping SABnzbd+ binary newsgrabber                                  [ OK ]
rm: cannot remove `/var/run/sabnzbdplus.pid': Permission denied
* Starting SABnzbd+ binary newsgrabber                                  [ OK ]

When I try a normal restart I get this Permission denied message:

martijn@vancouver:~$ /etc/init.d/sabnzbdplus restart
* Stopping SABnzbd+ binary newsgrabber                                  [ OK ]
rm: cannot remove `/var/run/sabnzbdplus.pid': Permission denied
* Starting SABnzbd+ binary newsgrabber                                  [ OK ]

I did not see this before because I did the restart from within the browser.

martijn@vancouver:/var/run$ ls -l sabnzbdplus.pid

martijn@vancouver:/var/run$ cat sabnzbdplus.pid

Put an .nzb file in the Downloads/NZB directory, but still it doesn't start the download.

uuhhhhhhhhhhhh...... ................made a little mistake I'm embarrassed to say...what I thought where .nzb files, where actually .srt files. Sorry to have wasted you're time.
