Hi all,

I am running on Windows 7+windows firewall, with latest version of SabNzbd 0.5.6. I recently re-installed Windows onto another drive and copied SABNZB, and sickbeard back onto it, I also copied all settings from Users\Dave and everything seems to work except that I can't get SAB to accept sickbeard downloads any more. The error im getting is:

Code: Select all

2011-02-05 14:32:58,819::WARNING::[interface:219] API Key missing, please enter the api key from Config->General into your 3rd party program:

Have followed those instructions, even re-entered all of my login information into sickbeard and SAB, tried un-installing, re-installing, generating a new API key, reboot, putting it into sickbeard, making sure login in sickbeard is correct and finally disabling the API-Key.

The log file is below:

hmmm, it appears to be downloading episodes etc. just that the log is constantly showing the error every couple of seconds or so..

Posted: **February 5th, 2011, 2:30 pm**

The error means that some program is trying to access SABnzbd automation interface.
Maybe it's SickBeard and you didn't give SickBeard the API-key that SABnzbd needs.
You can find it in SABnzbd's Config->General page (it's the long random text).

Hi all,
Stuck user here; I had SickBeard & SABnzbd+ working and I've blown it somehow i.e., I can't even figure what host/port to use for SAB.

My iMac's local IP: 192.168.1.66, I haven't changed the port setting (8080) and SickBeard's port is 8081

I d/led a fresh copy of SAB and ran the Setup Wizard successfully, but clicking a "download .nzb" link fails to initiate a d/l

Much obliged,
Michael

Are you able to connect to SABnzbd with a web browser?
If so, through which address and port?
Did you tell SickBeard the right api-key (Config->General)?

No.

I generated a new api-key in SAB and gave it to SickBeard and restarted both apps, Sickbeard loads, SAB doesn't…

You need to start SABnzbd too.

Posted: **February 7th, 2011, 3:39 pm**

SAB is running on:

Code: Select all

http://0.0.0.0:8080/

and I can connect via Firefox

It and SickBeard:

Code: Select all

http://localhost:8081/home/

fail to communicate…

I expect it's something obvious, just not to me

Posted: **February 7th, 2011, 5:48 pm**

It looks like you're using port 8080 for Firefox and 8081 for SickBeard.
That won't work.
If Firefox uses localhost:8080 and it works, the SickBeard should use localhost:8080 too.

Posted: **February 7th, 2011, 5:53 pm**

My setup is SickBeard:

Code: Select all

http://localhost:8081/home/

SABnzbd:

Code: Select all

http://localhost:8080/sabnzbd/

Obviously this is wrong but IDK how to fix it.

Posted: **February 8th, 2011, 3:22 am**

Sorry, my fault!
Sickbeard runs on port 8081 and SABnzbd on 8080.
Nothing wrong with that, in fact they need separate ports.
What I meant to say is that SickBeard needs to know that SABnzbd is using port 8080.
Did you set that up properly?

Pretty sure, here's a screenshot of SB's Episode Downloads config:

Whoops, I can't attach a .jpg; why is that??

0.0.0.0 is not a usable IP address to contact SABnzbd (or any other service).
You can tell SABnzbd to use it, but it's a code for "listen on localhost and the IP address".
So, you need to tell SickBeard to use localhost:8080

Thanks, I've changed SB's setting, I'll let you know how it works out.
