Unhandled Exception In Script ... TimeoutError: timed out

[snkeyez95]

Any idea what's causing this? Fresh Win 11 install and I have even tried reinstalling.

The site is not allowing me to attach any links as a 'new user'. I can't even paste the text as it is detected as a link.

ChatGPT converted it to text

I've never seen this.
The SAB specific thing is dirscanner. But then a time-out in socket (which is network, not disk).
Weird.
It's on Windows, so first guess is firewall/viruscanner blocking access, and thus causing a time-out.

What firewall and virusscanner are you using?

And: did you fill out anything for "Watched Folder" (so: http://127.0.0.1:8080/sabnzbd/config/fo ... irscan_dir ). If so: remove that

[snkeyez95]

Windows 11. No 3rd party firewall/virus scanner. The 'Watched Folder' field is blank.

I would do this:

Stop SABnzbd
uninstall SABnzbd
find and delete %userprofile%\AppData\Local\sabnzbd\sabnzbd.ini and the whole directory %userprofile%\AppData\Local\sabnzbd

Then: install SABnzbd, click allow if Windows asks for it, and run it ... do you get the wizard? If not: you did not delete the SABnzbd.ini etc. Go back to step one.
If you get the wizard: only fill out one new server. Does it work? Can SABnzbd download? No errors?

This is during startup in an internal part of Python.
Could you maybe try the latest Beta release? What version did you use now? I feel I fixed this problem before.

Sanders suggestion is also good to start with clean ini.

I haven't seen this error since manually adding Sab to Win's firewall exclusion. Thanks everyone for your replies and support. I'll continue to monitor and try other suggestions if I do see this error popping up again.
