RSS feeds not "working" (scanning at interval?)?

Post by TinCanFury »

Hello all!

Since newzbin"2" has come up I've set up new RSS feeds. the feeds work in the sense that if I cllick the preview SAB is able to see the matches and knows which it has downloaded and which are new. the problem is, even with the interval value set to 15 for the RSS Checking Interval, SAB never actually queues any of the matches to download.

I've got all the checkboxes for the feeds checked and as far as I can tell there is no reason it shouldn't be adding these to the downloads. Anyone have any ideas for me to check?

thanks!

The first batch is never downloaded (unless you click "Download"),
only new jobs in subsequent scans are downloaded.

that's the problem, the "new" subsequent ones are *not* being downloaded.

is this the type of thing that would be in the log? cause I don't see anything. I can't see how to figure out why this isn't working.

Is there a way to force it to check and download the new RSS feed hits?

Is the feed enabled for automatic scan (tickmark upper left corner)?
If you set the logging level to "debug", you should see activity n the logfile.

Having exact same problem.  Feeds are all checked in the top left and preview yields what I want.  But when new files get posted that should be DLed, it doesnt happen.

Dont know if this helps, but its  a recent issue.  As recent as two weeks ago I was not having any issues, but without any seeming change now things wont download.

Check the log file.
As a last resort you could delete the rss_data.sab file in the cache folder.
Note that this will make all your RSS feeds look like new ones
and so the "first" batch will not be downloaded.

Look for the names of the NZB's you expect.
The filters numbers are listed as they are tried against the names.
