SABnzbd Forums

Well, first inspect OSX's own Console tool for crash messages.
SABnzbd's own log file is in /Users/userid/Library/Application\ Support/logs

I have a crash report:

Is this helpful?

You're reporting a crash on OSX 10.8,
while your crash report says "Mac OS X 10.7.5 (11G63)".
What is it?
Which SABnzbd build are you running on which OSX version?

I am still experiencing regular crashing with OSX 10.8.2 and SABnzbd 0.7.9
Should I post a log or is this issue known and still being worked on?

Thanks!

edit: Mountain Lion version of SABnzbd installed of course

The only thing known is that is apparently happens on a few systems.
That's not much to go on; so far we haven't been able to reproduce it.

Ah, OK thanks shypike. I guess I am one of the unlucky few. Thanks for letting me know.

This thread has been viewed 1479, so maybe if more people having this issue posted some crash reports it could help?

I have this problem.
Running OSX 10.7.4 on a MiniMac
with the last 3 versions of SABnzbd.
Currently on 0.7.9
Happens every 24 hours roughly. Either during a job or in idle.
I have some log files.. but i am not sure how much help they are.
The last lines before it went offline start with : 2013-01-14 18:46:14,711::DEBUG::[__init__:1600] Decoding
Here is a pastebin of the OSX error report : http://pastebin.com/1U7sgZax

Hard to tell, or rather impossible to tell.
It crashes somewhere in the standard library of Apple's Python.
There's one thing you might try, maybe it'll help.
Stop SABnzbd, remove this file:
/Applications/SABnzbd/Contents/Resources/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/_yenc.so
and start SABnzbd again.

Nice one Shypike.
I believe this has solved my problem.

Thanks !

It may work fine now for you (which is cool!), but I'm left wondering why it goes wrong.
It must work fine on 99% of OSX boxes, or else we would have many more complaints.
