SABnzbd Forums

Not really a bug, but Beta2 reports as 0.7.0Beta instead of 0.7.0Beta2. I normally wouldn't have noticed but an auto-update script I have is going crazy trying to get the ever elusive Beta2

It checks the version against the newest build version on sourceforge, and if a newer one is found it downloads it. Everything goes good until it verifies the version and see's its still at 0.7.0Beta.

No big deal, I simply stopped the script for now. Just thought I'd let you know. Being a beta its pretty much a non-issue as it won't stay too long anyway

My Beta2 (source running on Linux) says "SABnzbd Version: 0.7.0Beta2" via the Help-button (upper right corner).

The stdout / log says


So can you explain what you did? And are you sure you're running Beta 2 ... ?

Ok, this is embarrassing. I didn't even think about my script to check for updates cuts after a certain number of characters, and....you guessed it, it cuts right at the "a" in 0.7.0Beta, so while sabnzbd was reporting correctly, my script wasn't catching the 2.

Ignore me,
