Error getting url http://nzbmatrix.com/api-nzb-download.p ... er&apikey=*************************

This has seemed to resurface, most of the RSS downloads endup with this error.

I just finished a redesign for the nzbmatrix access.
It will be in Beta2 this week.
(Got my own account now )

Sounds good.

Sounds good, what's different in the redesign?

First high-level Python http-library calls were used.
These make assumptions like a maximum response time
and nzbmatrix happens to be relatively slow in it's response.
The code for nzbmatrix is now like that for other sites
with just a few extra's for nzbmatrix.
That seems to do the trick.

Well I thought it was fixed but Im getting a few in my queue that says
And they just sit there, without giving an error in the Warnings section.

I looked at the detailed log though and saw this.
repeated more then once.


Edit: just to add I restarted sabnzbd and it resolved it, Ill keep an eye out and let you know if it keeps happening.

Solved in Beta3.
After repairing nzbmatrix support an older error popped up.

One issue that i had noticed was numerous failed attempts at retrieving the RSS feed from NZBMatrix, which makes sense if it was a timeout issue with 0.5.0B1.

In the end I rolled back to 0.4.12 and working 100%, but I do miss the new features 

My only question is, that if 0.4.12 is working perfectly with NZBMatrix (VIP account), why change this ? I know people had issues, but the VIP account access was the answer to get direct links to NZB files.

FYI - my RSS URI

Ok i went for beta 3 a moment ago and try retrieving from Nzbmatrix.
It didn't work i had this error.
Witch means "Error retrieving URL blabla (error="")"

Hope it helps.

It freaks out when nzbmatrix isn't fast enough and it goes into retry.
It hasn't really got anything to do with nzbmatrix.
It fails on the French or Swedish error message (due to the accented characters).

Switch to English temporarily.

@shypike : I never tried to fetch url with https, is it supported by SABnzbd ?

Found an issue with the global timeout being set to 4 seconds (from 120!). nzbmatrix seems to be slow to respond to requests causing nzbs and RSS feeds from there to fail to be added quite regularly. This is probably what most of you with nzbmatrix issues are facing.

The fix should be in the next beta (beta4+)

Was just about to post about the "Restarting crashed urlgrabber" still happening in beta3 is that cause of global timeout? or is that something else?

A combination of both.
The short timeout causes frequent error messages.
We discovered another problem with error text encoding problems,
strangely enough intermittent. I build some protective code around it.

Lately I have started using the French language for testing,
as just about any string seems to contain accented characters.

SAB 0.5.0B4 has been performing very well with NZBMatrix. Only a few RSS feed warnings since Monday.
RSS filter order is also preserved after filter changes and restarts.
Priority settings have been flawless

A fantastic effort.
