Unrar problem [raspberry]

[robertus]

Hi to everybody,

I have a little problem, because in my raspberry i have installed sabnzbd, but i can't extract .rar files

Infact i have this message

Code: Select all

⋅ Your UNRAR version is not recommended, get it from http://www.rarlab.com/rar_add.htm

I read a thread in this forum about this problem but suggest to unistall and install again. ( doesn't work for me )

My installation of it is:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install sabnzbdplus
then
sabnzbdplus --server 0.0.0.0
to launch wizard and configure.
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
i add
deb-src http://archive.raspbian.org/raspbian wheezy main contrib non-free rpi
sudo apt-get update
mkdir ~/unrar-nonfree && cd ~/unrar-nonfree
sudo apt-get build-dep unrar-nonfree
sudo apt-get source -b unrar-nonfree
sudo dpkg -i unrar_4.1.4-1+deb7u1_armhf.deb 
reboot but say always this message

I hope that someone can help me.

Assuming you're using Raspbian:

This is how I updated the unrar on my raspbian to UNRAR 5.30 beta 6 freeware:

Code: Select all

cd
wget http://www.rarlab.com/rar/unrar-5.3.7-arm.gz
gunzip unrar-5.3.7-arm.gz 
chmod +x unrar-5.3.7-arm 
./unrar-5.3.7-arm 

That last command should show "UNRAR 5.30 beta 6 freeware".

If so, let's continue:

Code: Select all

which unrar
sudo mv /usr/bin/unrar /usr/bin/unrar-4.10
sudo cp unrar-5.3.7-arm /usr/bin/unrar
unrar

That last command should show "UNRAR 5.30 beta 6 freeware".

Can you post the output of:

Code: Select all

which unrar

and

Code: Select all

unrar | head -5

and

Code: Select all

cat ~/.sabnzbd/logs/sabnzbd.log  | grep -i unrar | tail -5

That will give more information about what is going on.

I think you use an older version of SABnzbd. Can you run SABnzbd 0.8.0 beta4 like below?

First stop SABnzbd.

Then:

Code: Select all

cd
wget 'https://github.com/sabnzbd/sabnzbd/releases/download/0.8.0Beta4/SABnzbd-0.8.0Beta4-src.tar.gz'
tar xvzf SABnzbd-0.8.0Beta4-src.tar.gz 
cd SABnzbd-0.8.0Beta4/
./SABnzbd.py 

After two minutes, stop SABnzbd (CTRL-C), and do this:

Code: Select all

cat ~/.sabnzbd/logs/sabnzbd.log | grep -i unrar

Post that output here.

Result on my Raspbian:

Code: Select all

no way, doesn't unrar

[sander]

Your logging is old: december 2015. So where is your current logging of SAB 0.8.0 Beta4?

And why the /usr/local/bin/unrar ? Can you rename that file to something like /usr/local/bin/unrar-OLD, and then run again?

i don't know why is old my time in old, how can i fix it? in raspbian is right.

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi /usr/local/bin $ ls
indiecity  rar

here i don't have any unrar folder

[sander]

Your time is correct, but probably your SAB logging is now going somewhere else. I don't know where.

Strange that there is no unrar (anymore) in /usr/local/bin/.

You can follow https://forums.sabnzbd.org/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=9844 to update SABnzbd on your system.
First check with

Code: Select all

cat /etc/apt/sources.list | awk '{ print $3 }'

which Debian version you have. Probably jessie, so use that.
