Starting Beta 5 brings me to a login screen in the browser

[lenj]

After starting sabnzbd, and going to the browser interface http://localhost:8080/sabnzbd/, I get a page that is asking for user and password.  With the first install and startup, it worked OK.  After a reboot (maybe with sabnzbf still running?), I get the page to login and can't go any further.

Any ideas?  Help?

Running on SUSE 10.3, Firefox 2.0.0.14

It is possible that your browser auto-filled in a username and password for the web interface without you realising it when saving Config>General

You need to find your sabnzbd.ini. For windows, type the corresponding path into Start>Run (you DON'T need to replace %userprofile%)

Code: Select all

Unix:
~/.sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini
Windows XP/2003:
%userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\sabnzbd\sabnzbd.ini
Vista:
%userprofile%\AppData\Local\sabnzbd\sabnzbd.ini

Open it up in notepad/wordpad and find the lines starting with "username" and "password" and change them to the following:

Code: Select all

username = ""
password = ""

Save, then restart sabnzbd. You may need to open up the task manager and end the sabnzbd.exe process.

Ya, there was an issue with that.  What happened evidently, was when I was in the server config, it filled it the news server id/password for the local host.  I'm not sure how that happened, but it did.

Thanks for getting me going again.
