Fixed API Key but not nzbdstatus...please advise

Post by frimilden »

Ok I upgraded to the new sabnzbd and the new nzbdstatus, this fixed the API Key errors but nzbdstatus still does not show time left on downloads. It just sits there saying idle. Also the newzbin integration is busted and it no longer sends the nzb files to sab. Anyone else getting this? How can I fix it?

Worst case how can I downgrade back to 0.48?

Did you tell nzbstatus what your API key is?

You can downgrade by simply installing 0.4.8 over the current version.

Yes I gave nzbdstatus the api key. I also tried to install 0.48 over 0.49 using a deb file I got from the ubuntu forums. But when I start Sab it is still 0.49.  ??? Weird stuff is afoot.  :-\

"Installing over" is for Windows and OSX.
For Linux I think you need to uninstall first.
As we do not maintain the Linix distros ourselves, I'm not sure.

I did remove it first. I am using the unofficial repo I got from this site. Anyways yes I did remove it first, then installed the .deb I got from ubuntu forums and it claims sab is not installed at all. Pulling my hair out over this one, lol. Guess I will just wait for Ubuntu 9.04 and just keep the broken sab until then  :(

You can download our GZ distribution file.
Just "tar zxf" it somewhere and run it.
Probably all the prerequisites are still installed (Pytho, yEnc etc.).

Thank you for all of your help, much appreciated. I was able to downgrade. LOL, the one from the repo uses 'sabnzbdplus' to start. The deb I got starts wit 'sabnzbd' so it was installed the whole time and I was typing the wrong command to start it...FACEPALM!  :D
