I have installed SABnzbd via Optware on my DD-WRT Router (Asus RT-N16). When I do the following command
Code: Select all
root@DD-WRT:~# /opt/share/SABnzbd.py -s localhost:7777
I get the following after:

It hangs on this last line:

I try to navigate to
http://192.168.1.1:7777/sabnzbd via my web browser, but I get a timeout.
I'm stuck at this point.

Do you have any RSS definitions and are they active?

This is a new installation, no RSS feeds have been defined.

SOLVED!
I executed the following instead and it worked:
/opt/share/SABnzbd/SABnzbd.py -s 192.168.1.1:9090

Good. Apparently your router reserves some ports for its own use.

Spoke too soon.
Won't work on the router. I get a segmentation error and it shuts down. Not enough RAM on this thing. Sucks.
Unit RAM = 128 MB (2x 64MB - Samsung K4N511163QZ-HC25 or 2x 64MB - Samsung K4T51163QG-HCE6)
Unit Flash = 32 MB (MACRONIX MX29GL256EHTI2I-90Q)
Unit CPU = Broadcom4718A, 533 MHz (Factory clocked to 480MHz)
Word to anyone wanting to use this for SABnzbd, it won't work! You're best to run this on an actual desktop system.

How about using one of it's USB ports (if it even has one) and plug a pendisk?
That way maybe you could use the pendisk as swap file.
Just a thought
Cheers

128M is just not enough, sorry.

Are you sure?
Not even using swap?
Cheers

It would have to be a very efficient swap.
Of the 128M a significant part will be used by the OS and router software.
You'd be lucky if 64M was left for SABnzbd, which is just too little.

My attempt at SABnzbd on this router was actually done with a 4GB USB Stick. I even made the swapfile 1GB.
Definitely requires more RAM if you want to use this.

it would be skull bashingly slow even if it worked. Even the highest end consumer routers seldom have processors faster than a blazing 300mhz... how long would it take to do repairs and unrars on that??

Just a comment on my experience: I had many, many routers from all brands, always running alternative firmwares like DD-WRT, Tomato, etc. Bricked a few, etc. Man, its just not worth the pain. You always need more than they can do. You end up overclocking, burning the whole thing. Running stuff like Transmission-daemon and sabnzbd on the router will slow your network completely.
If you can, get yourself a mini-itx PC, like a Revo, which is very cheap, consumes very little power, and install your favorite Linux distro on it. The use your current router just as the AP. I have a Mini-PC that operates as Local DNS, DHCP server, Lamp, FTP, Windows File Server / Domain Controler, Firewall, Router (wired 1Gbit / wireless N), runs a small RAID 1 with two HDD (mdadm), plus Sabnzbd, Sick Beard, Couchpotato and Transmission-daemon, and is capable of XBMC via HDMI at very smooth 1080P.
I paid like 50 USD more on it than I would on a reasonably decent standard router. eBay / etc is got this things very cheap. Sure, it takes some effort to set it all up right, ok, you'll spend some days fixing it, but there's a lot of info on how to do it online. Something like BrazilFW (ex. Coyote NAS) for example may help you get up and running quickly. You can leave it headless or use the TV HDMI input as monitor when needed.
You'll be happier and there's no way to compare cost-benefit to any domestic / SOHO router I have ever seen.
Just my 2 cents.
Regards,
Effenberg

I'm doing all this (except Firewall atm) on Seagate Dockstar (30€ on eBay).
Of course I had to buy an external USB disk (500GB for 50€).
Power consumption is between 5-8Watts.
