Ive been seeing a lot of these the past few days.

Probably something I have configured wrong but its worked finr until recently.

Thanks!

please put specific info in the subject. I've now done it for you.

Code: Select all

name 'random' is not defined

that can happen if SAB uses something the random module before it was imported

Code: Select all

>>> random.randint(1,10)
...

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'random' is not defined

The code is here:

I do see an "import random" (good), but I don't see any usage. So how can that happen?

Ah:

Config -> Switches: what do you have selected at "Server IP address selection".

... my guess: "Randomly ... ". Correct? If so, change to "Quickest IP"

If that solves it, I think you have found a bug.

The bug is already fixed, will be part of next release.
