SABnzbd Forums

I had my account set up to download using ssl. I used https://127.0.0.1:9090. Then I did something stupid. I use Usenetserver.com and I knew that I had 20 connections and several port options, so I set up my server options page to attempt to use two different ports of usenetserver with 10 connections each. When I did a reboot of my computer, trying to conncet to https://127.0.0.1:9090 gave me an error code similar to " too many characters in ssl verification" or some nonsense like that. I'm guessing it's because it is trying to contact usenetserver twice and doubling the ssl verification codes.

I use Ubuntu so I went to Synaptic and did a complete removal of all things Sabnzbd related, and then reinstalled. Now when I try to connect to https://127.0.0.1:9090 or even to https://127.0.0.1:8080 I get this message in firefox.
Unable to connect

Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 127.0.0.1:9090.

    *  If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
          that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

Has anybody had a similar problem? Is there any way that I can contact a Sabnzbd administrator and have them wipe my account so that that I can set it up again?

       
       
     


     
     

For the record, I am using ubuntu 10.04 64 bit and the latest version of Sabnzbd

remove sabnzbd.ini (in ~/.sabnzbd/), and start SABnzbd.py; it will autowizard a fresh new setup for you

all right I will search around in root for that. Got any idea where I should start looking?

I found sabnzbd under /user/share/sabnzbdplus/sabnzbd I can't find sabnzbd.ini or SABnzbd.py for that matter.

How did you install SABnzbd? From the standard repository, or from the sabnzbd.org website?

With Synaptic, but I added JCFP PPA to my software sources before doing so I used this guide. http://www.ainer.org/?p=698
It should be the latest version.

Aha. If you run
... do you get any useful results?

rufus@rufus-desktop:~$ locate -i sabnzbd.ini
/home/rufus/.sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini
rufus@rufus-desktop:~$


Those are my results, but that file is not there.

So I logged on to Sabnzbd from my laptop using the same settings etc. I then tried to log on to sab using this https://127.0.0.1:9090./sabnzbd/ and got this response
Secure Connection Failed

An error occurred during a connection to 127.0.0.1:9090.

SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length.

(Error code: ssl_error_rx_record_too_long)
which was my original problem before I did a complete removal and install of the program

Can you re-read my post, do that? 2 lines of code ...

rufus@rufus-desktop:~$ sudo updatedb
rufus@rufus-desktop:~$ locate -i sabnzbd.ini
/home/rufus/.sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini
rufus@rufus-desktop:~$

Same results, I ran it twice just to be sure as two different lines.

There is  no /.sabnzbd in /home/rufus

I'll check back in eight hours.

Look at the locate output: "/home/rufus/.sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini"

Anyway: should help. Then start SABnzbd

Look at the locate output: "/home/rufus/.sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini"

.sabnzbd means this is an hidden folder !!!

So normally you will not see it when you go into : Look at the locate output: "/home/rufus/
