SABnzbd does not like CouchPotato's NZBs

Post by OUBeaver »

SABnzbd doesn't seem to like CouchPotato's NZBs lately. I'm running the latest version of SAB and CP. SickBeard and Headphones continues to work just fine with SAB. CouchPotato logs show that the NZB is successfully being sent to SAB and SAB logs confirms that as well. Both seem to be communicating well, but the download never actually shows up in SAB's queue. My categories are named exactly the same ('movies') all lowercase too. Restarted both several times. Even generated a new API key. I thought about doing a Queue Repair but I didn't think that would be necessary since SB and HP are working just fine.

Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

CouchPotato sends garbage to SABnzbd.
Instead of an NZB it sends this, which ultimately is an error message coming from the indexer site.

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>\n<error code="300" description="No such item"/>
CP fails to see the difference between an NZB and an XML-encoded error message.

Thanks for the reply.

I noticed that line immediately and have been trying to research it with no luck. I also just happen to find a guy on the CouchPotato GitHub page with the exact same issue. We may have a legitimate CP bug here because my buddy has the same issue as well.

Thanks again!

I've got the exact same problem with the exact same message!
Everything works except CP...

Someone already got any idea?

Currently working on it. It might be your indexer. Who are you using?

So, everything is working now. I signed up on a couple other indexer sites and now CP is getting SAB the nzbs and SAB is downloading a movie as I type. I wonder if some indexers are getting some bogus info or something.

As soon as I ditched my indexer and signed up for a different one everything is working fine now.

I just want to say that I had the same problem and found it related to my indexer.
I am using Couch Potato Server 4/Feb/2013 and SAB 0.7.9-6
Once I turned off my Newznab providers (NZB.su) and went only with free indexers (NZBindex, NZBX.co, binsearch, etc) my problems have gone away
