SABnzbd Forums

And thanks again, I had to look further though.
It's working like a charm now.
Now let's find a gracefull way to shut is down again, Through the web interface this can be done.
But from xbmc in a shutdown script....

TY!

Might seem obvious to some but "WHY"? Whats wrong with a standard apt-get install sabnzbdplus from the command line and use that?

Was just about to install SAB on my XBMC Live (Ubuntu based) Asrock 330 and paused....

this should explain it pretty well.

I'm having a hard time getting sabnzbd to start when my computer boots. I'm on karmic and was using the package from the official repos but switched to your PPA to see if it would make a difference and it hasn't. Here's /etc/default/sabnzbdplus:
It starts up fine if I run /etc/init.d/sabnzbdplus start after the system has booted.
Any ideas? I'm stumped.

Setup looks good, and with 0.0.0.0 networking shouldn't be the problem. Partitions/discs that aren't available on bootup? Encrypted homedir? USB drives that only get automounted after login?

Gah! Encrypted home directory!

I feel dumb for missing the obvious. Let me turn off ecryptfs.

Edit: Thanks, jcfp! That was it. Do you want to add a warning to your first post so other users don't make this mistake?

Hi,

Would it be possible to package SABnzbd+ with multi-core par2 instead of the single threaded version. It is available here: http://chuchusoft.com/par2_tbb/download.html

Thanks.

Creating a list of common errors is a long term, low priority item...

The package do not include any par2 executable, it simply relies on the par2 package to provide this. Apart from that, I'm not interested in packaging or maintaining this multicore par2 stuff: I don't have the hardware to test it or benefit from such a thing, and getting those releases to compile can be quite messy in my experience.

Now that 0.5 has finally reached public beta, the start post and the package itself are about to be updated as well. Most importantly:

• Templates changed: smpl is now the default/fallback interface; the former "Default" is now known as "Classic" and available as sabnzbdplus-theme-classic. Iphone is no more, it's replacement is called "Mobile" and packaged as sabnzbdplus-theme-mobile. It will be automatically installed if you had -theme-iphone installed in 0.4.x but probably needs you to select it again in the config if you want to use it.
• Anything other than karmic has seen only very limited testing; if you have dependency problems and so on please do report immediately by simply replying to this thread.
• Gutsy support was dropped, for the time being it is still available as 0.4.12 but it won't receive any more updates.
• The project Gods tell us that "It is recommended you finish your current queue before upgrading, as a new queue and history will be used for 0.5.x (the old one will still remain, you just need to downgrade)". In case you got upgraded to 0.5 prematurely, don't worry: 1) shutdown any instance of 0.5, 2) download the 0.4.12 source release (SABnzbd-0.4.12-src.tar.gz) from sourceforge, 3) extract it, 4) change into the directory that contains SABnzbd.py, 5) run that using 'python2.5 SABnzbd.py' until your queue is done, and finally 6) switch back to 0.5 by stopping any instance of 0.4, and starting 0.5 using 'sabnzbdplus' or via the init script.
• Support for end-of-queue action (like shutdown or hibernate) may work if you install the python-dbus and dbus packages. If you use such features on your system, please test and report back. Thanks

Just to report that sabnzbd+ 0.5beta is broken on intrepid 
sabnzbdplus-theme-smpl 0.5.0~beta1-0ubuntu1~jcfp1~intrepid require libjs-mochikit >= 1.4 but on intrepid official version is 1.3.1-1
This can easely be workaround by manually installing  libjs-mochiki 1.4.2 from jaunty since there is no dependancy. (took me 2 days to figure out the solution since i'm a linux newby
Works fine for me now... don't know if you can make something about it...

Thank for the ubuntu package

Thanks for reporting. Fix uploaded, issue affected only intrepid.

When i upgrade to the latest beta 0.5 version, i get the following error in firefox:

That looks alot like this bug in cherrypy. Included cherrypy3 version (also in the ppa package) in sabnzbd+ looks like its older than the commit that should fix that. Try clearing browser cache, if the problem persists file a bug in the beta releases forum to be sure devs notice.
