Too many connections to server xxx

Post by blackkatt »

Hi,

So I updated to the latest version yesterday 1.0.2 (Windows) and i read that false message "Too many connections to server" was fixed.
Now then funny thing is that I did not have a problem prior to updating to 1.0.2 and now I have O0

You can reveal the real message by going to Servers, and then click on Test Server. Post that error message here.

What do you mean with real? I don't have too many connections to server.

The real message sent by your newsserver

... so some other newsserver response (the 'real' response) is triggering that SAB message.

But wait: I had a look at the source code:

Code: Select all

                            logging.debug('Server login problem: %s, %s', ecode, msg)
                            if ecode in ('502', '481', '400') and clues_too_many(msg):
                                # Too many connections: remove this thread and reduce thread-setting for server
                                # Plan to go back to the full number after a penalty timeout
                                if server.active:
                                    server.errormsg = T('Too many connections to server %s') % display_msg
                                    logging.error(T('Too many connections to server %s'), server.id)
So: set SABnzbd's logging to +Debug, re-download, and as soon you see the error message check your sabnzbd.log for a line with "Server login problem". Post the output here.

For example

Code: Select all

2016-05-10 20:23:35,650::DEBUG::[downloader:574] Server login problem: 482, 482 Too many connections for your user (nntpswitch)
and

Code: Select all

$ cat ~/.sabnzbd/logs/sabnzbd.log | grep -i -e "too many" -e "server login problem"

2016-05-10 20:37:16,561::DEBUG::[downloader:574] Server login problem: 400, 400 dreader37.news.xs4all.nl: Too many connections from your host (max 4) - [email protected]
2016-05-10 20:37:16,561::ERROR::[downloader:580] Too many connections to server newszilla6.xs4all.nl

Stupid question: but why not reduce the number of connections by a few?

This is not a problem any more (I think) but the reason, at least for me. Not to reduce number of connection is ofc speed! I have mine set to 49 of 50. Anything less I lose speed.

Hi guys,

Not sure I should create a new thread for a problem with version 2 or re-use that one.

I've been having this problem since version 2. No fix unfortunately in the next releases.

Happens randomly, whether I set my max connections to 100% of what I'm allowed or 70%.

Here is the +debug log:
2017-09-10 12:38:07,493::DEBUG::[downloader:628] Server login problem: 502, 502 Too many connections
2017-09-10 12:38:07,493::WARNING::[downloader:636] Too many connections to server sslreader.eweka.nl
2017-09-10 12:38:07,594::DEBUG::[downloader:847] Set planned server resume sslreader.eweka.nl in 10 mins
Is it another problem of ghost connections or that have not been released? I can see a problem when reconnecting:

Eweka probably has a longer time out. Go into Config Servers, click advanced and set timeout to 120s. Or maybe 150.

OK thanks. It was already at 120s. I'll try with 150s.
I just realised that it could be on eweka's side. Maybe they're cheap for a reason.

While it could be SABnzbd, I have looked into this part of the code in such detail and if it was making ghost-connections these forums would be overflowing with bug reports :)
