Hello,

I am from canada with Bell as internet provider, when i add a file to the download lign (wich is empty) the download starts the overall progress bar advances but i do not get any files its always 0 mb out of 0 mb and in the speed section i see its on .14-18 kbs and download is at idle
i tried to reconfigure, i formated my pc but nothing helped i use supernews and port 443 SSL google chrome with sabmonitor and i use as search engines newzbin and nzb matrix

it used to work about 2 weeks ago

Thank you

Are your NZBs within Supernews' retention time?
Is the end result an entry in History? If so, what does it show when you click this entry?

so i just tried out something
i was trying to download a file that is 254 days old and i get the problem
i saw your post and i tried to download a file that is only 5 days old and that one worked perfectly
i went in the config and recheck my retention days witch is 1194days to make sure it was set up good and it is but the file older of 254 days i cant download
and after i tried with a different file 380 days old and that 1 works no problems
the file i download get the same problem from nzbmatrix and newzbin
is it possible that some files are protected or blocked ?
i am lost right now

Nowadays many Usenet providers are receiving DMCA notifications and
subsequently remove posts.
Also, not everyone who posts NZBs to nzbmatrix and similar sites posts proper material.

BTW: if you have a single server in your setup, do not set a retention time.
Retention times are not absolute.
Only set a retention time when you have multiple servers with very different retention times.
In such a case, SABnzbd will not waste time asking a server for an article that it is very unlikely to have.
