API: issue with set_config & server settings
Posted: October 11th, 2011, 8:19 pm
hi.
1st & foremost: thanks a lot for this great app!
now, straight to the issue:
using API, I manage to use mode=set_config to change settings in sabnzbd.ini
everything works except, when I want to change a server setting (like 'connections'), due to the fact that each server is a SUB-section of [servers] & mode=set_config doesn't seem to be able to "reach" SUB-sections (just regular sections).
by the way and for the record, I am using v0.6.9 (win32) on win7 x64.
the sabnzbd.ini created by sabnzbd is as follow:
here are the things I tried:
- try #1:this one creates a "blank" server and thus returns:
- try #2:
does the very same as get config, but syntax reaches its limit: i cannot specify another "keyword=connections"
- try #3:"error: Config item does not exist"
- try #4:"error: Config item does not exist"
any undocumented workaround?
thanks a lot for any help (by the way, I am writing an app/script to "pool" my connections through a web server and dispatch those connections as required among computers on my network).
