No Userscripts listed in 0.6.8 WHS2011

[weldon]

I keep trying to set my User-Scripts folder in the Sabnzbd config, but it doesn't show any scripts available via the main page or the 'Categories' section.


I've installed Sabnzbd numerous times on other computers, and have never had this issue. My setup is like this:


C:\Sickbeard\autoProcessTV\<my-scripts-here>
C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\Scripts\<my-scripts-here> (this is the default location that SAB suggests)

I've tried adding the complete path to my autoProcessTV folder, and the complete & abbrev. path of my 'working-directory' Scripts folder, but each time I check, I do not see any scripts available. The scripts in the folder is the standard sabToSickBeard.py.


Has anyone else encountered this? What might be the issue?

Hi,

I believe with 0.6.8 (or 0.6.7) the user script must be set to "executable". However, in Windows I don't know how to set a file to be executable. (On Linux it's easy: set the x-bit)

[weldon]

Interesting. I'll look into it tomorrow and post back if I get it working. Thanks!

In Windows, examine the environment variable PATHEXT.
Only files with extensions listed in PATHEXT will be shown.

Ah, that was the Windows info indeed. Apart from that, is the statement in my previous post correct?

[shypike]

For Linux/OSX, having the X bit is the only requirement.

I came back to this thread after making a wrapper for the .py file:

sabToSickbeardExecutable.bat --

C:\Python27\python.exe C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\SabnzbdScripts\sabToSickBeard.py %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7
exit %ERRORLEVEL%

--

I added the environment variable , but It looks like I'll need to restart... since this is the only script I'm planning on running, I'll probably leave this as is for now.

PATHEXT is a system environment variable, requiring a system restart on change.
(Well, most of the time.)
