0.6.1 History: No graphic indication for failed files

[boiler]

i don't know if this is a bug....my history list currently has about 10 items on it. every entry looks the same (like it was succesful). i was a missing one downloaded file so i checked the list again. only when i hovered the mouse over the 3rd icon (i guess the repair/quick check icon) did it say " repair failed, not enough repair blocks". the fourth icon read: "Unpacked 0 files/folders in 0 seconds".

Now is seem to remember from earlier releases that a failed repair was indicated with a red sentence and the icon for the unpacking phase would be mssing altogether.

any ideas?

0.6.1 should still give error indications.
Unless you set Config->Switches->"Post-Process Only Verified Jobs" off.
In that case SABnzbd assumes you know best and races on, despite errors.

thanks you shypike!

the box "Post-Process Only Verified Jobs" wasn't checked indeed (don't know how this happened). anyway, it's checked now, so i'll see what happens (of course my guess is i won't have a failed download for months now :-)

thanks again!

You can ask what the use is for an option like this.
Early versions of SABnzbd just raced on despite errors.
Later we introduced sanity checks and added this option for people who want the old behaviour.
Don't think it makes much sense now, unless you have a
very clever post-processing script that does useful things with failed downloads.
