SABnzbd Forums

Hey guys. I have read other threads about this and tried to make it work, but there is something im missing. This is what i have. I have tried putting the asterisk right after downloads, and i get an error. I tried putting a space first and then the star, another error. This is all in the folder/path section. Groups/indexer tags is empty.

There's a bug in release 0.6.9.
If you want this feature, you will have to stop SABnzbd and manually edit the sabnzbd.ini file.
Look up your path and append * to it.

Ok, so i did that, and it is putting the completed file into my main folder, but its leaving the download folders...Is there a way that i can program this to remove those folders?

Leaves download folders in your main folder you mean?
It shouldn't do that.
Which operating system do you use?

Sorry. Let me reiterate. I have my temp folder as D:\downloads. It makes folders based on the file name. Then it moves the file out of the named folder and into D:\Downloads. But it leaves 35 folders with similar filenames.

You should separate the temporary download folder from the final folder.
If you do want the end results in d:\download, then at least set the temporary folder to d:\download\temp
or somewhere else altogether.

ummm... i feel so stupid. thx shypike

Nothing to feel stupid about.
The cause is the way SABnzbd is designed.
The assumption is that "incomplete" only contains jobs in progress.
This makes it easier to enable recovery of damaged queues.
The behavior that you see is just a side effect of mixing "incomplete" with "complete".
