SABnzbd Forums

Hi guys,

I have an android phone that I use the sabnzb mobile app. I try to use binsearch.info to download nzbs on my android and it will not remotely send them to sabnzb to download. What can I do?

First of all, I don't know that android app.
Second, you'll have to setup remote access to your SABnzbd installation.
This involves quite a few steps.
Set 0.0.0.0 has host address in Config->General
Tell your software firewall to allow external access to SABnzbd.
Your phone should be on your local area network (full external access requires more steps and brings security risks).
Your phone's app should know both the internal IP address of your SABnzbd PC and SABnzbd's api key (in Config->General).

I've done all of this and I do have remote access using sabnzb mobile. The problem is when I go to get a nzb on my android phone using binsearch.info. It shows it fetching the nzb on sabnzb and then it does nothing.

Do you see anything appearing the SABnzbd queue?
How does it look?

Yes, it says trying to fetch and then the web address, hangs there for about 5 seconds, and then disappears and nothing happens.

ON the sabnzb mobile app it allows you search within the app to download nzbs and move them to your sabnzb server. I clearly have a connection to it as I can see everthing that is happening with sabnzb from home.

It looks like the URL sent to SABnzbd isn't correct.
Can you copy the exact URL from SABnzbd's queue page?
Alternatively, set logging to debug on the Status page,
do another NZB search/fetch.
After failure, open the log file on the status page.
At the end of the file you should be able to find the URL.
Please PM it to me.
