SABNzbd keeps pulling up Install Wizard

Post by Touchdown »

I know I'm missing something here but I can't figure out what?!?!

I had SABnzbd setup and installed and working perfectly for about 4 weeks on my Windows Home Server 2011 box. Today I went to sabnazbd webpage to check on it and it keeps pulling up the Installation Wizard and wanting me to install it again. I know all my settings are present somewhere but I can't pull up them up anywhere. Hope this makes sense. Any clues on what to do?!?!

Thanks!

So, did you fill out the wizard again? And did SABnzbd run again after that?

FYI: SABnzbd will start the wizard if the sabnzbd.ini is not available in the standard location:

Windows XP/2003 %userprofile%\local data\application data\sabnzbd\sabnzbd.ini
Windows Vista or 7 %userprofile%\AppData\Local\sabnzbd\sabnzbd.ini
Unix ~/.sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini
OSX ~/Library/Application Support/SABnzbd/sabnzbd.ini
Note for windows users, you do not need to replace anything in those paths, just paste them into a folder location bar or the run menu (start>run)

So, after filling out the wizard, is the file sabnzbd.ini available in that location?
