Error on PostProcessing Script

[msiskind]

Hello All,

I am trying to follow this for Headphone Post-Processing
http://forums.sabnzbd.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=6113
but it will not work

I get Exit(-1) Cannot run script /home/masd/.sabnzbd/PostProcessingScripts/mp3organizer

I am on Ubuntu 12 running SABnzbd and Headphones. My SB postprocessing script works (but that is the default one)

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Does your script have its X bit set?

[clinton hall]

In addition to setting the X bit, if you had at any point copied the code and created the script in wordpad/notepad before sending this over to Ubuntu, you can try doing a dos2unix conversion on the script to remove any CRLF (dos line feeds) that can cause issues.

Essentially I had the same error on a CouchPotato postprocess script after editing in wordpad and this was resolved using dos2unix.

[msiskind]

if by x bit you mean the chmod +x [filename] then yes...

I copied the script as listed on the page noted above --- http://forums.sabnzbd.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=6113

do i still need to do the dos2unix?

BTW - i am a total n00b when it comes to all of this... Thanks in advance

[clinton hall]

dos2unix won't hurt any of your files, and it is built in to Linux, so I would try it and see if that resolves the issue.
The command is just "dos2unix scriptname.extension"

Which script on the link you posted are you using and what is the file name you have used for this script?

How did you copy the script? Did you actually download a file (I didn't see any attachments) or did you copy the text and paste this into a text/script editor?

[msiskind]

the script file is the first one http://forums.sabnzbd.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=6113#p42873 so the third post in the full thread.

the name of my file is mp3organizer.sh

I copied the text from the code box and have verified that all is there

[clinton hall]

Ok, try navigating to your postprocess directory (in Ubuntu terminal) and run the following command
./mp3organizer.sh

You should get "Doh! You have to pass a directory...."
If so, it indicates that the script is executable and working.
While you are there, just run the following commands
dos2unix mp3organizer.sh
./mp3organizer.sh

Do you still get the same output message?

When you say above, that you copied text from the code box... What did you paste it into? Was this in Ubuntu or in Windows? Did you paste into word pad/notepad or some other editor?

[msiskind]

I did the ./mp3organizer.sh and it did come back as Doh! So it does work.. Yeah!!

I copied the text into Ubuntu into their default Text Editor.

So here is my Code

Code: Select all

    #!/bin/bash


    # Where is your music?
    music_collection="$HOME/Music"


    # SABNZBD usage
    # 1) Edit music_collection setting above if your music isn't in the "normal" place
    # 2) Set this up as an SABNZBD Post Processing script

    # GENERAL usage
    # 1) Edit music_collection setting above if your music isn't in the "normal" place

My music is in "the usually location", so that folder is correct...

Hopefully this will continue to help you help me... Thanks again

Ok.. so you did this all in Ubuntu. That rules out the CRLF mistake I had that casued a similar issue (the whole dos2unix thing)

I have just created this script on my QNAP NAS and verified that this does indeed run from SABnzbd. (later I'll have to find and delete what appears to be some very crap music that I just downloaded!)

Just to rule out any other permission issues try this
chmod 777 mp3organizer.sh

Then try a download and see if it runs.

Oh, and what version of SABnzbd are you running?

[msiskind]

SABnzbd Version: 0.7.0Beta3

i did the chmod 777 and it did not make a difference...

So i decided to delete my postprossing script and then redid it and got the same results

is it the beta version of SABnzbd that is doing this?

[clinton hall]

I tested this on SABnzbd 0.7.3, but I am not aware of any beta versions that had problems running post processing scripts. Certainly you could try upgrading to 0.7.3 if you feel the urge.

Another test to do is to create the script in another directory (try /home/masd/postprocess) and not from within the .sab directory. Then point SABnzbd postprocessing (in the folders config page) to that new location, restart SABnzbd and try another download...

On that note, have you tried restarting SABnzbd since you modified/created this script? If not, could be a quick test.

[msiskind]

okay.. so i moved it back to the default for sickbeard, where i knew sb worked (i never tried before) and the same result. I also tried it after restarting SAB after all the changes, but still got the same issues.

If i wanted to upgrade to non beta, how would i do that? i am a n00b at this whole thing, and i tried to do the auto find, but it did not say anything about being behind on commits or anything...

[clinton hall]

How did you install SABnzbd? If you installed a "package" then you would need to find out the update method for that package. If you installed git and did a git pull, then you should be able to do another git pull to update to the latest.

[natethegreat141990]

Ok I had this problem also and the solution to me if everything else is correct is the line that says " #backup_dir="$HOME/mp3organizer_backups" you will want to take out the # in front of that. Due to that the program does not know to read that line. Try that and let me know thanks.
