I have a strange bug with SABnzbd where after a while I end up with 2 running SAB daemons, and this causes my download queue to fill up but none of the files are post-processed until I manually stop both running daemons and restart a single one. This is in ubuntu.

How is it installed (Ubuntu repo, jcfp repo, source)? How is it running? (init/upstart at boot, start as user at login, start as user manually) I don't think there's any way for that to happen when using init/upstart. Even launching manually any second instance should attempt to bind the same web port as the existing instance is using and then explode all over itself rather than just running. Are you sure there's actually a second instance starting? My system has it installed from jcfp's repo and launching via init, there's only one instance running but it splits off in to multiple processes. Right now there's about 20 SABnzbd processes running on my server. This is normal for CherryPy applications. Sickbeard does the same thing, as does my homebrew CherryPy-based home theater receiver control panel on which I certainly did not go out of my way to make anything multithreaded or multi-process.

It's installed from the ubuntu repo, and as far as I know my init scripts are set up correctly. The second process could be a forked subprocess, but stopping both of them requires stopping the daemon twice, which as far as I know shouldn't happen. (doesn't killing the parent process kill all of its children?) Unfortunately I don't have my old terminal window to copy paste, but doing 'ps aux|grep sab' showed peter 4325 26.1 3.4 333076 127072 ? Sl 14:14 38:34 /usr/bin/python -OO /usr/bin/sabnzbdplus --daemon twice (the second one had a different PID), and I had to do 'sudo /etc/init.d/sabnzbdplus stop' twice before both processes disappeared. Doing 'sudo /etc/init.d/sabnzbdplus restart' does not fix the problem. astr0man fucked around with this message at 21:46 on May 15, 2012 |

Just chiming in to let you know I have exactly the same situation with regards to the multiple processes, however, my post processing always works. So I too have to actually run the sabndbplus stop command twice but I don't have any other issues.

Ok, it happened again just now.code: Here's my init script - it should be the default one installed from apt: http://pastebin.com/7yi1CUS7 And my /etc/default/sabnzbdplus: http://pastebin.com/nCfFZFbE edit: fixed formatting so the terminal stuff is easier to read I guess it is possible that the problem could be sickbeard related, but then I'm not 100% sure why restarting sab fixes it without touching sickbeard. edit2: actually restarting it made all of the unprocessed downloads disappear from my queue with the files still in my incomplete downloads directory. astr0man fucked around with this message at 22:41 on May 16, 2012 |

I've had Sickbeard's postproc poo poo the bed and prevent SAB from getting anywhere, so try some downloads that won't be postprocessed and see how it goes. If it's Sickbeard, check it's logs.

I'm trying to set up SAB on Ubuntu. In the first step of the wizard, where you enter in the host, port, name and password, etc, I'm geting the error "502 news.blocknews.net: Access denied to your node." I know my info is correct, since I've successfully done this on my Mac.

How does one go about getting an invite for the new NZBs.org? I checked the OP and wiki. I have an account on the old one, but it doesn't work in SickBeard anymore.

Sickbeard needs to be updated to a recent version if it's not already, then the old NZBs.org entry under Search Providers will change to "NZBs.org Old" and there will be a new "NZBs.org" entry. This one will show up under the built-in provider configuration and ask for the Newznab API key. For older apps or if you can't update Sickbeard for some reason, set it up as a Newznab site just like NZB.su

So Giganews is having a sale for their plat package or whatever that comes with the browser and vpn, for $17 a month for a few months. Is it worth switching off supernews for a few months to get the VPN + Mimeo plus cloud hosting and some other stuff?

Basically paying $10 for the VPN and cloud hosting. Guess it just depends on how bad you need a VPN and 30 gigs of cloud hosting for a few months. You can get VPNs cheaper than 10 bucks.

That 1% thing always bothered. If every month they're going to cut off the top 1% for being excessive, won't they hit the asymptote of grandmas using 500 mb a month?

Nonsense, they're giving everyone unlimited data!  quote:How has Comcast "killed" its caps? "Each of these pilot approaches will effectively offer unlimited usage of our services because customers will have the ability to buy as much data as they want."

What do you guys recommend in the way of VPNs? It may be a little outside the scope of this thread, but how do they affect the speed of usenet downloads and normal internet usage?

I like getting a cheap VPS and using it for an ssh tunnel. StrongVPN sells VPNs for 7 USD a monath which is also pretty cheap. Usually the speed is about the same, but most providers will let you do speed tests.

Don't forget that Giganews' Vyprvpn logs extensively and will hand over your info probably at the drop of a hat. There are probably 'better' VPN providers out there, at least from a log retention perspective.

Yeah, a lot of people seemed to think that VyprVPN was going to give them a way to download on public bittorrent sites risk free. As though Giganews was going to assume all liability and let you do whatever you wanted using their network.

I setup CouchPotato Server on my server the other day, played around with it, then killed it since I didn't want to bother migrating over my Wanted list. Now I don't remember what port I configured it to run on. I killed the old CP and restarted CPS, thinking it might be on the same port (5000), but that didn't work. I can't find any config files or anything in the CPS directory either. How do I find out what port it's on? Edit: default port is 5050, found it on my server's browsing history. I'm still curious where CPS stores settings, though. EC fucked around with this message at 14:54 on May 22, 2012 |

I couldn't figure out what a 'symbolic link problem' was, so I removed all the files in the cache folder as well as deleting the folder with all the video & nfo files, & the show finally added. Is anyone able to explain what happened there (just for curiosity's sake)?

I keep getting this a lot, but my login for newzbin is fine and I checked it twice in Sickbeard and sabnzbd ERROR : Newzbin server changed its protocol I recently topped up, is that the issue? It works fine if I manually download the nzb and add it, so something in the API is the issue I added the IP for newzbin2.es to my hosts file under newzbin.com thinking that was the issue, no effect.

Qouch has been discussed over the last few pages, but I haven't found an answer to my problem yet, which concerns using Qouch with Sickbeard. I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 with SABnzbd, Sickbeard, and friends. The OS and apps are installed onto a flash drive, with Sickbeard specifically being at "/home/shane/.sickbeard". I've set the apps to download files to an internal hard drive, which is mounted as "/media/large". This drive contains the Downloads folder, Media folder, etc. In Qouch, I have a server set up which is my Ubuntu machine, at "192.168.1.xx". My Qouch settings for Sickbeard are: Enabled: On Use SSL: Off (If I can get this working, great.) Port Number: 8081 Path: /home/shane/.sickbeard Username: user Password: password API key: apikey I save all that, then try to access "TV Shows" through Qouch. I get an error saying that I need Sickbeard 491+, or that my server isn't found. This is without SSL. Turning SSL on has its own set of problems...

Nask26 posted:I left my path blank and it works just fine and I probably have the exact same setup. YES! I swear I tried that first and got an error. Oh well, thanks! Edit: Any luck with using SSL? If I turn SSL on for Sickbeard, I get the "could not connect to server" screen. Does it even matter whether or not I use SSL? Edit 2: Man, I'm just having problems out the wazoo. Whenever I restart the Sickbeard service, all my shows and custom providers get deleted from the list. Couch Potato is fine, and I set that up the same way as Sickbeard. Edit 2a: Hmm, so if I restart Sickbeard through the web browser, my shows and providers get wiped. If I restart through the terminal with "sudo service sickbeard restart" my shows and settings are back. It's not a problem I guess, just something to watch out for.
