[Sabnzbd 0.7.0] Quits immediately with IPV6 enabled

Post by arjanscholl »

Hello all,

Whenever i try to start Sabznbd 0.7.0 on my Macbook Pro it quits immediately with the following error message:

Code: Select all

SABnzbd.py 0.7.0

 


SABnzbd needs a valid host address for its internal web server.
You have specified an invalid address.
Safe values are localhost and 0.0.0.0

Please restart SABnzbd with a proper host address.

Open a Terminal window and type the line (example):
    /Applications/SABnzbd.app/Contents/MacOS/SABnzbd --server localhost:8080


Program did not start!
Strange thing is that if i disable IPV6 support in Mac OSX then it works just fine, and if i keep trying (like 10 times) it will work eventually in IPV6 mode too. I'm at a loss as to why this doesn't work.
I've also tried to set different host addresses in the sabnzbd.ini file such as localhost, 0.0.0.0, :: but to no avail.

Does anyone have any experience with this?

Some required information:
  • Version: 0.7.0 final
    OS: Mac OSX Lion (10.7.4)
    Install-type: DMG image from sabnzbd.org website
    Skin (if applicable): Default
    Firewall Software: none
    Are you using IPV6? yes (native ipv6 address)
    Is the issue reproducible? (yes/no) yes

Some OSX systems have weird IPv6 behaviour.
A work-around is to use 127.0.01 if you don't need external access.
Or leave the host empty if you do.

I've just tried both and after 10 starts it keeps running but that's not a real solution

That's odd. Do you have some software firewall running?

Maybe go back to 0.6.15 for the time being, possibly 0.7.1 will solve this.
