HELP - Sabnzbd Deletes everything after download!?

Post by achy_88 »

Hey guys, this may be a very stupid post, but recently after completing a download (That is NOT linked to couchpotato or SickBeard) for some reason instead of sabnzbd unpacking the file as it used to do, it deletes everything straight away! I dont have a chance to stop it or do anything!

I know there are three options when downloading an NZB file: 1) Download + Repair 2) Download + Delete 3) Download + Unpack.
I also know there are scripts that can affect what happens to a file after it has completed downloading.

Here is what is happening:

After I add a file to Sabnzbd the Download option is set to "Download + Unpack" (I have also tried it with the setting adjusted to JUST Download...and the same thing happens)
Instead of Sabnzbd unpacking the file and allowing me to access it like it used to, the file gets instantly deleted. Not to the Trash can, but completely deleted rendering downloading the file completely pointless.

The Default script is set to "None" and the Default download setting is set to "Download+unpack" so it should just do that?


Has anyone got any idea of what could be happening to the file after being downloaded? I can't seem to access a log to see what is going on after a download as well, which might help the situation.

Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks in advanced!  ???

Check SABnzbd log file and see if it's actually deleting stuff, not very likely though.
If your downloading just par2 files without any real files,
then the nett result might be an empty folder.

Thanks for the quick reply!

I've noticed that so long as the NZB file that I am downloading is put in the TV or Movie Category it will not be deleted.  But if it is left as none, then it will be deleted.

Sorry for the stupid question, How do i view the log?

view log : /sabnzbd/connections/#tabs-warnings

Also have a look that couchpotato is NOT watching the folder where you put the "NONE" downloads in.

Also make sure your incomplete & complete folder are not the same
