SABnzbd Forums

So I was on an older version and decided to try and update,

Ubuntu 18.04.
Was on say 2. something (about a year old)

I typed sudo apt install sabnzbdplus

Which I am not sure if it uses the jcfp package, but trying to run
sabnzbdplus i get the following error:

Not all required Python modules are available, please check requirements.txt
Missiing module: sgmllib

Where is the requirements.txt file?
I cant seem to install the sgmllib
I have python: 3.9 and I believe 3.6

Almost thinking to start from scratch on this server, but looking to see if I can at least get it up in running.

sgmllib is not included in Python 3 so it sounds like you're trying to run SABnzbd v2.x using Python 3.

cant respond

So I think its installed, it show as Active(exited) under status, but I do not see any process running using ps -ef, nor any open ports. I looked for sabnzbd.py on the system but no luck, tried following the /etc/default and the daemon to find the start file I guess. Totally confused now as I am using the ubuntu ppa for the install, and it shows installed

Not sure what else i could post that might help someone narrow down whats going on.

First things first: what do you get when you type
(plus <ENTER>)

If it type just sabnzbdplus it looks like its trying to load it via python2 (its the missing module) sgmllib.

if i type sudo service sabnzdbplus start it looks to say its acitve. But i think its giving a false positive on it being active.,

Uninstall sabnzbdplus

Then again type "sabznbdplus" + ENTER ... what do you get?
