All (any) NZBs manually added to the Watch folder are automatically moved from there to the Backup folder, but never make it to the queue. They are also not mentioned in the error messages, so I have no clue what is going on.

Thanks,
Effenberg

EDIT: Btw, just read your tutorial on Sabnzbd under Apache with DAV and security and its great stuff. I plan to put all media-daemons (transmission, Sab, Sickbeard, etc) under a single Apache install and control access per user.

The best way is usually to look at the logs.
Pause downloading, set logging level to "Debug", add an NZB to the watched folder
and inspect the log.

Hi Shypike,
Just did it:

- Changed to debug logging and cleared it.
- Paused download
- Re added 5 nzbs to watch folder

In the exact setup watch time (3 minutes) they were moves to the Backup Folder. Nothing was added to the queue (same number of items as before). Nothing shown on the latest warnings screen. Zero.

Tried to restart downloads in hope that would trigger some magic process that would make them show in the queue. Nothing happened,

Here's what shows on sabnzbd.log:

The funny thing is that the queue has the same number of items before and after the procedure. The thing was not added.

Do you see any orphaned jobs on the Status page (tab Repair)?
Try a "Repair" restart, just in case the main queue file is corrupted.

Where is your watched folder located?

Posted: **March 3rd, 2011, 8:07 pm**

Sorry for the delay to answer you.
No, no orphan jobs. Just did the repair, but the queue disappeared. Even after restarting the service. Second time the repair eats my queue

It sucks because Sick Beard will continue saying episodes were snatched but they never get downloaded unless I force the to wanted again (if theres no NZB already in the backup folder to interfere). Kinda problematic to reorganize for large queues.

The watch folder is within sabnzbd directory (in my case it is /mnt/nas/public/daemons/sabnzbd/watch). Users have a soft link /home/$user/nzb_watch in their $home pointing out to this folder.
