SABnzbd Forums

If the app is running for some time (thus not right after startup) and I bookmark a nzb file in the newzbin forum.
SABNZBD sees the bookmark perfectly and states it is fetching msgid etc from newzbin but endlessly keeps reporting this.

I've run SABNZBD in safe mode and this message is reported.
Please hope you can fix this kind (or help me solve it) kind of irritating minor bug

Which SABnzbd release are you using?

You can see this specific report on newzbin.com, but it doesn't have an NZB file.

Running latest release 0.5.3.

If I go to newzbin I can browse everything.

Look at the report's details.
0 files, 0 bytes.
Try to download the NZB from the newzbin report page

Rebooting sabnzbd also works.
But then it gets the posts of newzbin again thus twice...

So, the problem is really in sabnzbd...

Well, I am now seeing problems with the automatic fetching from Newzbin to SABnzbd.  I bookmark something in Newzbin, and then either wait for next update, or do a manual update. I see the item(s) show up in the queue in the form of:
"fetching msgid 5801445 from www.newzbin.com"
However, it stays like that forever, and never gets the nzb.

Right now, I have to go back to Newzbin and save the NZB and then open it in SABnzbd manually to get it to add to the queue, which works fine.  This is fine when I am at the machine running the software, but when remote, this does not always work for me (especially from an iPhone!) While I have a workaround, it would be nice to have the automatic fetch working again.

This was all working, and then suddenly stopped working about 2 weeks ago.

Version: 0.5.3
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate N 64-bit system
Install-type: Windows Installer used
Skin: Classic-Black
Firewall Software: Windows Firewall On. Behind NAT router WNR2000 Netgear.
Are you using IPV6? No
Is the issue reproducible? Yes

Thanks

All I can say is that newzbin fetching still works whenever I test it.
If you set the logging level to "debug", you should be a able to see
SABnzbd trying to access newzbin.com and possibly give extra info about what is wrong.
If you start SABnzbd-console.exe instead of the normal exe file,
you will see it "live".
Don't download at the same time or you'll miss the important parts.

OK. Will give this all a try. It Was working fine and just stopped, so was unsure what changed. Are there router ports I need forwarded in NAT?  I did upgrade my routers recently and may have lost a rule. Never thought about that.

Cheers

No port-forwarding is needed.
This only needed when you want to expose SABnzbd's Web-UI to the internet.

Thanks. I tried all the idea, and I am still not working. The bookmarks ARE read by SABnzbd, as the begin to show up in the Queue list. But they never actually download anything, staying of the form ""fetching msgid 5801445 from www.newzbin.com"" forever, with a 0KB/0KB reading. Looking at the log, they are being listed as Processed, so if I delete the queue item, they will not re-downoad. And if I add them by hand, the program gets the data and downloads the files properly.

I am just getting stuck somewhere between "OH look, new bookmarks, I'll get them now" and actually getting the content of the bookmark.

What else can I check? This just stopped all of a sudden a few weeks ago, and is frustrating at best.

Thanks,

Sorry, I lied, I did not try this because I did not see where to make this change. Looked in preferences. Can you tell me where I make this change?

Cheers

OK, so after I just posted, I restarted the program in console mode again, and to my surprise, ALL the bookmarks that were stuck showed up in the queue. Even ones I thought I had deleted.

Not sure what was clogging the pipe, but it seems to have cleaned itself out now.

So for now, NEVER MIND!  :-)

Sorry for the false alarm.

In  researching another problem I came across a dubious piece of programming
that may explain this issue.
With a bit of luck it's solved in the next release.

Cool. Thanks. I should warn you, I am known to have a "black thumb" of software. That which will not break for others breaks for me even when I do not try.

Just so you know, starting with the console did unclear the problem (like cleaning a clog) and a bunch of "processed" bookmarks suddenly appeared. It is now working again (although other restarts and reboots made no difference) so if you piece of code could cause that, GREAT! 

Cheers
