I'm trying to get nzbair up and running on my android device...when i go to the setup page (
http://nzbair.com/setup) and input all of the config info it tells me to "Check your SABNzb port has been forwarded correctly:
http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/"...when i check that the port is open on that site it says it is. I have the port forwarded to my PC in my router config and I assigned a static IP to my PC. Any suggestions from anyone?

So you know your own IP address and the external port SAB should be listening to? Have you asked a friend to access that URL from his/her Internet-connection? Does he/she get the SABnzbd webinterface?
If you want, I can do that check too. Yes let me know an OK, and your port (if other than 8080)

http://99.107.197.44:8081/api?mode=qsta ... labla12345 gives an (error) message, so your SABnzbd portforwarding is OK.
So, if you use the URL
http://99.107.197.44:8081/api?mode=qsta ... labla12345 : do you get this error message:
Code: Select all
<result>
<status>False</status>
<error>Missing authentication</error>
</result>
If so, what happens when you full out the correct APIkey?

You get that error message with the *correct* api key? Then you should check your api key (config -> general); with the correct api key should get the queue overview. See example below.
So: you should find out your correct API key. And do not use the NZB key.
Code: Select all
<queue>
<have_warnings>1</have_warnings>
<jobs/>
<noofslots>0</noofslots>
<paused>False</paused>
<pause_int>0</pause_int>
<mbleft>0.0</mbleft>
<diskspace2>4.75189208984</diskspace2>
<diskspace1>4.75189208984</diskspace1>
<speed>0</speed>
<timeleft>0:00:00</timeleft>
<mb>0.0</mb>
<state>IDLE</state>
<loadavg>0.10 | 0.12 | 0.13</loadavg>
<kbpersec>0.0</kbpersec>
</queue>
