Re: Weird error message

No, I'm not, but now that you mention IP blocks, I am tunneling through a WiTopia OpenVPN connection. Maybe that's enough to throw up some red flags at Newzbin?

Re: Failed to connect to mail server

It's none of the above. Gmail, at least, requires SSL/TLS. I'm guessing (just a hunch) that SAB doesn't support SMTP over SSL yet. If not, that needs to be fixed.

Weird error message

Code: Select all

2012-08-15 13:53:47,832	ERROR:	Newzbin server changed its protocol
Just got one of these. Doesn't appear to be a frequent occurrence. Would anyone happen to know what it means?

Re: How to change newzbin url

If Newzbin2 cuts off before the next release then just add newzbin2.com to your host file (or OS's equivalent). They aren't changing IP address. An unintended side effect of this action is that any SSL connection to the newzbin.com domain will complain about the certificate being invalid for the IP...

Re: How to change newzbin url

Meh, this is a minor inconvenience in the long run. Newzbin2.es works now, the same as it always has. Kudos to Team R Dogs! =D

Re: Repairing failed, [Error 206] The filename or extension

Sorry to resurrect such an ancient thread, but I've just come across this bug with regards to split files (avi's), already unpacked from the RARs, in SABnzbd 0.6.14 on Windows 7. Sometimes the error is "Error [Error 206] The filename or extension is too long while running par2_repair on set foo...

Verify sufficient disk space before unpack and/or incremental unpack

I do most of my work on my laptop, which generally means I don't have a lot of spare disk space (and there are times when "just get another hard drive" is not an option). At most, I can fit two 10GB+ NZB sets. The problem lies in sab's "dumb" method of unpacking said sets. Even i...

Re: Sign up to become an Official SABnzbd Tester

I'd love to test the bleeding edge for you on Mac OS X. Seems like I run into more corner cases on this OS than others.

Re: Free Newsservers

Is eweka down right now? I can't seem to connect to it for the life of me. I looked at their homepage and they're advertising paid usenet access. Have they always done this or have they just now begun charging for access?

Re: renicing par2/unpack/yenc processes for nix/osx

Well, ionice is effectively only a Linux feature and I'm talking about OSX. It hasn't been ported to BSD, OSX, or Windows, AFAIK. Apparently, Apple thought they'd just roll ionice's features into nice. See here for more details: IOPOL_DEFAULT    This is the default I/O policy for the first process a...

Re: renicing par2/unpack/yenc processes for nix/osx

However, "nice" is only nice as far as CPU loading is concerned. Actually, that's incorrect . When setting a thread into background state the scheduling priority is set to lowest value, disk and network IO are throttled.  Network IO will be throttled for any sockets the thread opens after...

Maybe you meant || instead of && ? I mean, either one is a sufficient condition, correct?

sab handles identical filenames incorrectly

Occasionally, you'll come across some doofus who generates a movie sample with the same filename as the movie itself. I'm not sure if this is truly the case, but it appears that during the post-processing stage, sab will refuse to overwrite the identical filename in the same directory and instead si...
