Almost every package I download says this. I can go in and manually repair the packages with the available par2s without trouble, yet SABnzbd+ cannot. The Retry button verifies and reports the same error.
Attached is a screenshot showing the problem.
I'm using Arch Linux, and SABnzbd+ 0.6.0 Beta 4.
Any suggestions?
Mike

I'm attaching another screenshot.
This one shows par2repair repairing the same package SABnzbd+ refused to repair from the above screenshot.

Most likely cause is inconsistently named par2 files.
Currently SABnzbd uses fairly strict rules about naming, primarily to support multi-set NZB.
We are looking at how to improve this.
If you think that there's no naming issue, then please send the NZB to bugs at sabnzbd.org

I'm not sure there is a naming issue. I'm sending an nzb to the address you listed.
Re: Failed, 1000+ blocks missing
There is a naming problem.
The par2 files expects files named *.PAR2 while actual files are called *.par2.
You're a victim of a sloppy poster working with Windows.
Since Linux has a case-sensitive file system, repair will fail.
This is one of the things we will tackle in a future release, but not for 0.6.0 any more.

Very strange. It seems pretty common.
The par2 tools themselves have no trouble with the files; can you point me to the problem in SABnzbd where I can squeeze in a quick patch?
Thanks.

Fixing it is not straightforward.
You'd have to know which files are expected given the par2 file.
Just renaming to lower case won't fix anything if the par2 file expects uppercase files.
The first priority for the successor of 0.6.0 will be a more flexible way of using par2.
