060b4 bug reports and some questions

[n2k]

Hey everybody,

Since the last couple of days I've been using SABnzbd+ and it's a blast! I really like the speed
I've experienced a few bugs and have some questions.
I didn't read the all the 38 pages (at the time of writing) of bugs to see if they're already reported, so if they are you can just ignore them

Basic information:
Version: 0.6.0 Beta 4 English
OS: Windows 7 x64 English
Install-type: Windows Installer
Skin: Plush
Firewall Software: Windows 7 Firewall
Browser: Firefox 4
I'm not using IPv6
All of the bugs are reproducable for me.

Bug:
The Test Server button is not working (found in the Servers options).
It keeps saying 'Invalid server adress'.


Bug:
When using %fn in the (TV) sorting option the folder will just be called %fn.
Using %s.n.S%0s\%fn will result in \My.Favorite.Series.S01\%fn\

Bug?:
In the Server options you can set a Timeout. I've set this to 60 seconds. But it seems it retries each ~6 seconds when this error occurs:

Code: Select all

ERROR::[downloader:492] Probable account sharing (ssl-eu.astraweb.com:563)

Question/bug:
When a download has finished and has been unrarred and does not fit in any category or is being handled by any sorting the destination folder is
\.1\
For example: C:\Binaries\MyAwesomeHoliday.1\MyAwesomeHoliday.mkv
I don't know why the .1 is there, I've tried to enable/disable the Enable folder rename option (found in the Switches) but has the same result.
And, you guessed it, I'd like to get rid of the .1

Question:
I really like the sorting feature, although I'd like more customization on the actual renaming, like using RegEx to search.
I haven't really explored the PP script execution yet but I guess there lies part of my answer.

Thanks for reading!

Greets,

Server test : known problem.

%fn, don't use it, it's not needed.

.1 is only added when there's an existing folder with the same name.
I would need a detailed scenario to see whether there could be a real issue.

For renaming, I suggest you look into either pre-queue or post-processing script, see Wiki.

%fn would be needed if I would want to put it into a different folder then the imported nzb name (yes using %fn for a folder was my intention).

Well that's the thing I find weird about the .1 issue.
When downloading it already creates a folder with the same name from the imported nzb (as it should).
Why would it, when extracting, create another folder with .1 and move the extracted files after to the .1, instead of just extracting in the already created folder
I could give you a log on where it happens if that'll help.
Edit: This seems to be caused by my incomplete download folder and complete download folder being the same.

Making "complete" and "incomplete" identical is allowed, but not recommended,
maybe we should outright forbid it.
At the least make incomplete a sub folder of complete.

There is an issue with %fn.
It won't be solved for 0.6.0, because its the same in 0.5.6
and we want to get to 0.6.0Final asap.
The sorting functions will be tackled later, there's a lot more room for improvement there.

Yes, I've just made a !!incomplete folder inside my complete folder and made it invisible

Thanks for the replies!
