Postprocessing stopped working after re-installing freenas [SOLVED] (workaround)

[Tijlbert]

Hi, I'm having a problem which is probably not related to sabnzbd directly but here goes:

I use a script called 'media_process.py' which is mentioned elsewhere in this forum (it's the one with the xbmc updater). It used to work perfecty.
I reinstalled my freenas-os, after this Postprocessing stopped working.

The script itself still runs when I start it manually. When sab (v0.5.0alpha2) does it, it failes. This used to work on 0.5.0alpha2.

This is in the log:

When I make an .sh file which only does 'python media_process.py' it works!..

Programming goof. "WindowsError" is not defined on non-Windows systems (duh).
Something goes wrong with your post-processing, but I cannot see what.

You can fix this more or less by removing "WindowsError".
So line 160 of newsunpack is now:

Code: Select all

    except WindowsError:

But it should read:

Code: Select all

    except:

This will not solve the problem, but at least you will probably be able to see what goes wrong.

Thanks for the quick responce. I kept your code unedited and solved it by encapsulating it in an .sh file (as edited in the post). The funny thing is; It used to work so I thought I made a mistake during install.

btw. I didn't made the script but I'm a happy user

btbtw. That microsoft - pr line in my last post was a joke; you know that, right? (If you don't know what I'm talkin' about, nevermind:))
