Post by neufaeth69 »

Updated my SABnzbd and now I keep getting this error message when trying to connect with my laptop ! I have a zbox that runs my system and I use my laptop to manage ! I can remotely connect to sick beard and couch potatoe , but not SABnzbd ! I've tried to connect with Google Chrome , Fire Fox , and IE and get the same error message ! I had no issue until the update ! Any ideas what happened ???

What does "SABnzbd Host" on http://localhost:8080/config/general/ say?

And what OS is running on the Zbox?

Change 127.0.0.1 to 0.0.0.0, Save it, and restart SABnzbd. Then try again.

If it then doesn't work (so after setting 0.0.0.0), it must be your Windows Firewall.
