I to can't get anything to work, I bought the app Tanis for checking sabnzbd downloads, set it up straight away and works great, bought your app put the same settings in etc, and no joy!
Seriously need some proper instructions on how to setup.

I can use my iPhone over the web to open up Cp Sab and SB, using a dyndns account with no problems!
But when I put the same addresses in your app all I get is " error unknown" any ideas at all?

i have a problem adding tv shows from qouch.
So far everything is configured right in terms of sabnzbd and sickbeard. The app shows connection is fine and shows me my show list, coming episodes, history all fetched from my computer. However when it's time to add a tv show from quoch i get the following message:
"Sick beard connection failed
Root directory is not set, please provide a location"
Fair enough, it was blank (which was suggested here). Anyway i input the location of sickbeard.exe "c:/sickbeard" and an error pops up saying need version 491+ or server not found. So i put the path back to blank but still stuck with not adding tv shows

I see a few people where it is not working and a few who apparently have it running.
Can anyone who has it working using reverse-proxies post his PRECISE configuration. I believe that "/" make a difference, so a complete and exact description of your config from someone using reverse-proxies would be highly appreciated. Thanks!!!

Sorry about the noob question, but what is a reverse proxy?

A reverse proxy allows you to run services which usually rely on a port being open (for example SABnzbd runs on port 8080) on the standard HTTP or HTTPS port. This means you can have many services running on a single port and as such less entry into your system for hackers to exploit. Instead of SABnzbd replying on port 8080, it can be called by a path on your server, for example my.domain.com/sabnzbd
Using Apache 2 under Ubuntu Server, here are the lines in my configuration file (this can be in apache2.conf, httpd.conf or in your virtualhosts config file - depends how your system is set up).
Code: Select all
ProxyPass /sabnzbd http://localhost:8080/sabnzbd
ProxyPassReverse /sabnzbd http://localhost:8080/sabnzbd

Thanks for the reply and explanation, looks like I'm running a reverse proxy then.
I finally managed to get the Qouch app working last night after a lot of trial and error.
It needs a " how to set up " tho for people who aren't to Tech savy.
Thanks again.

It should be noted that if you use Apache for authentication then you should turn off authentication in each of the apps or you will be prompted twice for authentication.
It is good practice to protect internet facing services in Apache with at least Basic HTTP Authentication. My services are all protected by Basic HTTP Authentication with the password backend stored in LDAP meaning I have single sign-on access to all my services.

The problem I had with it. I was putting my full reverse proxy address in the IP/Host window.
Ie:
http://my domain.dyndns.org:port number/sabnzbd
Instead of just the dyndns address. Ie:my domain.dyndns.org
I then filled my port numbers within the app per Sab SB and Cp.
Didn't need to put anything in the paths and then they all just worked!
My nas that Sab SB and Cp all sit on as a static address, and the port numbers for these have all been forwarded.
I take it you've already done this?
Hope you get it sorted, if you need any more info I'll do my best to help.

I've just bought Qouch and it appears I'm unable to run it at all. The program launches and shows the splash screen but then drops back to the dashboard without truly entering the program. I've tried it under 3.1.3 and now 4.2.1. This was the first app I installed after directly factory resetting it. Since then I've jailbroken the device and unlocked it for T-mobile usage but the problem still persists. Is there a way of diagnosing it beyond what I'm seeing to troubleshoot or does Qouch just not work with the Iphone 3g?

This error is clearly not very explanatory because it comes from Sickbeard itself. The whole point is that you have to put a root directory to download to into SickBeard itself. You can do that by adding a TV show from the web interface of Sickbeard for the first time, then you'll get asked to specify a root directory. After you've set that you'll be able to add TV shows from Qouch. (Otherwise, Sickbeard doesn't know where to put new shows.)

In the past I've done some tests with an iPhone 3G, and that has worked for some time, albeit very, very, veeeeeery slow due to the nature of how the program works. I've heard more reports of people saying it doesn't work with the 3G in the latest version, and unfortunately I'm unable to test it. I'm going to make that more clear in the application's description in the app store.
In the meantime, anyone that had trouble running the app on his 3G or equivalent device can ask his or her money back through Apple. I'm sorry it has to be this way.

Using Qouch to retry failed NZB via the application's interface doesn't work (does nothing). it does work using SAB's web interface.

First off...great app...my wife can now "request" movies and has been set up on boxcar with her iPhone to get notified when they're ready for viewing...
One problem that i can't wrap my head around...I seem to have an odd problem with the add movie functionality...namely that I can connect to CouchPotato fine, but when I go to add a flick to it, select the movie and hit the quality, it just sits there spinning. Eventually it gives me an error that it can't connect to the CouchPotato server, but when I reconnect to the server the movie is already either in the Wanted list, or already actually Snatched.
Any ideas?
