I was sticking to the PLUSH webinterface as long as I could, and now when there is no option for plush, I cant get around the error, I updated to latest python 3.9. I use only https access, http is disabled.

[21/Sep/2021:11:57:37] ENGINE Error in HTTPServer.tick

I updated to python 3.9

python --version
Python 2.7.17
python3 --version
Python 3.6.9
python3.9 --version
Python 3.9.7

Seems that even after python 3.9 update, sab is still using older Python 3.6. Is there a way to instruct sabnzbd to use Python 3.9 or is there a way to overcome this issue?

[sander]

I'm confused:
What does Plush have to do with error message you show, and with the Python version?

[loopdemack]

Plush is no longer option in sab, and with latest version Glitter webinterface is the only option, and I don't want permanent error. Seems I collected unintentional sabnzbd update and now I'm stuck with Glitter and this error.

After adding the alternate for python now I cant even start sabnzbd

update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for python3

I still don't understand what Plush has to with your python version nor your error message. Glitter does not have to do SSL errors.

* SABnzbd requires Python 3.6. No need for Python 3.9
* I can't help with and would advice against upgrading to Python 3.9 on Linux. I can't help with python problems if did a python upgrade and that is causing problems
* SABnzbd 3.4.0 only has Glitter
* you can instruct your Linux to install a specific version of SABnzbd. Google "ubuntu install specific version of package"

So ... what do you want?

[loopdemack]

Wait, Safihre gave advice in few threads that we install Python 3.9 to fix this error I posted in the first post, in which bugs were fixed and even said about adding PPA repository, now this sudden switch and its not anymore advice ? I added ppa:deadsnakes/ppa
Should I uninstall python3.9 python3.9-venv and python3.9-dev?

I don't want to see this ENGINE Error in HTTPServer.tick Traceback error in sab. I had this error before I installed python 3.9.
How to fix it?

[loopdemack]

Also I installed alternate paths for python I can switch paths with
sudo update-alternatives --config python3

1 /usr/bin/python3.6 1 manual mode
2 /usr/bin/python3.9 2 manual mode

I'm now in mode 1 and I can start sabnzbd but I still have error in webinterface?

Can you post the URL to that thread?

Clear. Workaround: uncheck "Enable HTTPS" in SABnzbd. Also, see the warning at that option: "Modern web browsers and other clients will not accept self-signed certificates and will give a warning and/or won't connect at all."

In the meantime I did some work: I can reproduce on Ubuntu 18.04. See https://github.com/sabnzbd/sabnzbd/issues/1950

[loopdemack]

I enabled https because I had 20000 http hack attempts and seems few successful, they just added some garbage nothing important, when I disabled http and enabled https it stopped. Its was an know issue from last year. I need webinterface on the internet its not used locally.

[sander]

You didn't answer my first question. Pity.

I don't think I can make you happy, so I'll leave it to this.

First question, you mean links to threads, I think it was several I also saw you in those threads.
I closed them let me check in the history.

[loopdemack]

It was about ancient CherryPy and that bugs were fixed in python 3.8 and 3.9.
I just cant find it again I will try even deeply to search again thread I mentioned, maybe it was on github.

I use letsencrypt SSL certificates but not for the domain but for the registered IP.

[loopdemack]

This is a different problem:
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=24900
It is a bug in Python which is fixed in the latest Python 3.8 and 3.9

I found one I will post when I find other two posts.

[loopdemack]

Ok if there is no fix could in the next sab we get the option not to show this error, because every 5-10 seconds after I remove the error if I download something error is back.

[safihre]

The error is fixed in Python 3.9, it's not a SABnzbd thing but a Python-problem.
We also don't choose which Python to use, that's what you do when running SABnzbd.
