Cannot enable https...

Post by elefant82 »

Hello - I did a quick search and couldnt find a similar issue. Apologies if this is a dupe.

I noticed today that https was not checked in my config settings for Sabnzbd. I know it was working before because my bookmarks that worked earlier in the day use https in the URL. I tried to correct this by clicking the checkbox to re enable https, saving then restarting sabnzbd only to see that the checkbox that I checked is unchecked.

Please note that after I hit save, I am able to navigate away from config settings page and come back to see that the check mark is still there to enable https. It is only when I restart that it some how reverts back...

Somebody please help!!!!!

Thanks!

... and so you're running the binary version of SABnzbd, right?

On a unix-based platform, I would have adviced you to check sabnzbd.log for the following lines:

Code: Select all

$ grep -i -e ssl -e 9090 ~/.sabnzbd/logs/sabnzbd.log
2014-07-30 18:28:52,123::INFO::[SABnzbd:500] pyOpenSSL... found (True)
2014-07-30 18:28:52,126::INFO::[SABnzbd:1514] Starting web-interface on :::9090
2014-07-30 18:28:52,435::INFO::[_cplogging:55] [30/Jul/2014:18:28:52] ENGINE Serving on :::9090
... but I don't know if that is useful on Windows. Maybe you can try anyway?

Correct, running the binary version of sabnzbd :)

Heres what I found:

Code: Select all

Im a noob so I dont really know what Im looking for. Is there anything obvious to you that is wrong based on this log?

Please note that once I started seeing this issue, I reconfigured the "SABnzbd port" config to 9090 (from 8085) to match the port Im using for "HTTPS Port" (9090). Does making these match make a difference?

Super thank you for the help!!!

So both HTTP and HTTPS on 9090? That's impossible. And thus that explains your problem. Solution: set HTTP back on 8080 and HTTPS on 9090.

I set it back to 8085 and it started working again. Sorry for the stupid mistake. Strange thing is that I swear I was getting the same problem before when it was on 8085 for Sab port and https port was 9090. Crossing my fingers that this resolved for good now.

Thanks again for stepping in to help a stranger. Much appreciated :):):):):):)
