Login woes
So I have been using sabnzbd on my macbook for a while now with no problems, but I have always used the 'simple' skin. When I updated to .6.1 I thought I would go back to that skin and so I changed it and pressed restart. When I tried to log back in it asked for a password but I don't have a password set so I left it blank, this didn't work so I just pressed cancel. Well now I seem to be locked out of the user interface, it says "page not found, or can't connect to localhost... etc" I tried to uninstall and went to library/application support/sabnzbd and deleting the folder, but it still won't play nice with any internet browser. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Re: Login woes
Is the program running at all?
Do you see the down-arrow in the top menu bar and does it provide a pull-down menu?
If you remove ~/library/application support/sabnzbd folder the Wizard should
come up when you start up SABnzbd.

Re: Login woes
I deleted the file and sabnzbd turns on but is unable to connect to my newreader provider. The queue can be added to, but nothing downloads and because I can't view the graphical interface I can't remove anything. If I click on "queue" or "history" it just pulls up a screen which looks like this:

Does any other browser work?

Re: Login woes
Oh yeah I forgot to mention that, unfortunately firefox and safari are both giving me similar error messages. I don't know if this is helpful, but for some reason, when I turned on sabnzbd today it looked as though it was connecting, showed a download speed of ~2.8 MB/s calculated a download time, and then completely froze. Is there anywhere else it would save settings besides the folder in application support?

Your screendump says you're trying to connect your webbrowser to http://news.supernews.com:119/sabnzbd/dudemann wrote: I deleted the file and sabnzbd turns on but is unable to connect to my newreader provider.

That is VERY, VERY wrong.
You should use http://localhost:8080/

Re: Login woes
That's where is takes me when I select "queue" or "history" from the drop-down menu in the menu bar, but I also tried http://localhost:8080/, with the same result
Re: Login woes
So, you *can* access SABnzbd, right? Via which URL? And please post a screendump again.dudemann wrote: That's where is takes me when I select "queue" or "history" from the drop-down menu in the menu bar,

Re: Login woes
Ok so this is kinda hard to explain, but sabnzbd turns on, the icon appears in the menubar, the DL speed goes up and hit ~2.75 then the whole thing just freezes. If I go to the menubar I can click on queue or history but I can't access them in any browser
Re: Login woes
Hmmm: again your webbrowser tries to access http://news.supernews.com:119/sabnzbd/, which is useless. You must access SABnzbd via http://localhost:8080/ or http://localhost:8085/ or something like that. That means you have to find out on which port SABnzbd is runningdudemann wrote: Ok so this is kinda hard to explain, but sabnzbd turns on, the icon appears in the menubar, the DL speed goes up and hit ~2.75 then the whole thing just freezes.

Method 1:
Can you find the file ~/Library/Application Support/SABnzbd/sabnzbd.ini ? If so, can you open it (read-only) and find each occurrence of "port" in that file, and post it here?
Method 2:
A trial-n-error method to find the URL that SAB is listening to: try these URLs:
http://127.0.0.1:8080/
http://127.0.0.1:8085/
http://127.0.0.1:8090/
http://127.0.0.1:8095/
http://localhost:8080/
http://localhost:8085/
http://localhost:8090/
http://localhost:8095/
http://[::1]:8080/
http://[::1]:8085/
http://[::1]:8090/
http://[::1]:8095/
Access via HTTPS:
https://localhost:9090/
https://localhost:9095/
https://127.0.0.1:9090/
https://127.0.0.1:9095/
Method 3:
Another way to find the ports that are being listened to, is to use the command 'netstat' from the commandline.
I Tried Mac OS X in a VMware Virtual Machine, and here's what you should type on Mac OS X to see the ports that are being listened to:
Code: Select all
Mac-Pro:~ MacAdmin$ netstat -an | grep LISTEN
tcp4 0 0 *.8080 *.* LISTEN
tcp4 0 0 127.0.0.1.631 *.* LISTEN
tcp6 0 0 ::1.631 *.* LISTEN
Mac-Pro:~ MacAdmin$
I haven't a method to find which process (/ process ID) is listening to which port.
On Ubuntu/Linux "netstat -plnt" will give you the best information:
Code: Select all
sander@R540:~$ netstat -plnt
(Not all processes could be identified, non-owned process info
will not be shown, you would have to be root to see it all.)
Active Internet connections (only servers)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:8080 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 10764/python
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:51413 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 21061/transmission-

Re: Login woes
With Mac OS X installed in Virtualbox on my Ubuntu, I found another method to see whether SABnzbd is running, and if so, on which port:
or even better:
So: SABnzbd is running, and it's listening on port "http-alt", which is port 8080. Hopefully there is a way to just see the number (8080), and no 'resolving'.
Code: Select all
Sander-Mac-mini:~ sander$ lsof -i | grep LISTEN
SABnzbd 113 sander 13u IPv4 0x042cbf28 0t0 TCP *:http-alt (LISTEN)
Sander-Mac-mini:~ sander$
Code: Select all
Sander-Mac-mini:~ sander$ lsof -i | grep -i SAB
SABnzbd 113 sander 13u IPv4 0x042cbf28 0t0 TCP *:http-alt (LISTEN)
Sander-Mac-mini:~ sander$

Re: Login woes
And 'lsof' is also useful on Ubuntu Linux (although a bit slow: up to 11 seconds):

Re: Login woes
Ah: -P is the option both on Linux and Mac OS X to 'not resolve' and see the numeric ports
So, on both Linux and MacOSX, the above command will tell if SABnzbd is running, and if so, on which port. That's useful in a lot of questions on this forum.
Code: Select all
sander@R540:~$ lsof -i -P | grep -i listen
GoogleTal 2314 sander 15u IPv4 24070 0t0 TCP localhost:53153 (LISTEN)
SABnzbd.p 4244 sander 5u IPv6 80597 0t0 TCP *:9090 (LISTEN)
