Re: Unpacking failed, an expected file was not unpacked

@brando56894

Can you PM a link to that .NZB so that I can download it too?

I checked the relevant code in the file sabnzbd/newsunpack.py :

Code: Select all

    if cfg.unpack_check():
        if reliable_unpack_names() and not RAR_PROBLEM:
            missing = []
            # Loop through and check for the presence of all the files the archive contained
            for path in expected_files:
                #### SNIP
                #### ...
                if not os.path.exists(fullpath):
                    # There was a missing file, show a warning
                    missing.append(path)
                    logging.info(Ta('Missing expected file: %s => unrar error?'), latin1(path))
That last line (714) causes the message. So it's triggered by "not os.path.exists(fullpath)". So hypothesis / long shot: maybe the problem is in fullpath, and not path? Could you change (path) in that last line to (fullpath), redownload the .NZB again, and check & post the error message again?

EDIT:

The check is only done if cfg.unpack_check() is True. So worth a try: turn off that check. In the SAB-GUI: Config -> Switches: uncheck "Check result of unpacking" and try again.

Code: Select all

$ grep unpack_check ~/.sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini
unpack_check = 0

Flipping that switch seemed to fix the problem.

I think this is the same issue I reported here: http://forums.sabnzbd.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=18106 only on Windows.

I've tried everything to figure out why it thinks the extracted file doesn't exist when it does (as I can see the final file in the temporary "UNPACKED" folder).

It's not all downloads but the only similarity with all the failed ones are that the failed ones are extracting a file with a filename made up of random letters. It shouldn't make any difference, as I simply rename it manually later and the file is perfectly ok. Only SAB complains.

It can make a difference when the name contains illegal characters.
Possibly SABnzbd and unrar treat them differently.
Do you have an example NZB that shows this behaviour.
Personally I have never come across one.

Yes, I have the last 3 nzb files that failed in this way. Where can I put them?

Sort of hoped that 0.7.19RC2 would resolve the issue, but I just got:

It's not unrar, there's some sort of bug.
SABnzbd passes this as one of the parameters:
/MARGE\\TV\\......
Obviously that should be:
\\MARGE\\TV\\.....

How did you set the destination in Config->Categories or TVSort?
Just checking :)
There were some changes associated with full paths like this,
so I cannot rule out a new bug.

In that case, something is wrong in SABnzbd itself.
Both the forward slash at the front and the back are suspect.
Back to the drawing board.
Should you be using Sort for this download, can you post your Sort expression?
