Re: Sorting with minor deletions or additions of text

I don't think sabnzbd's sorting allows for modifying variables via regular expressions or similar. The sorting does however primarily source its info from the job name, that in turn can be modified from a pre-queue script (where you do have access to all kinds of scripting and regexp powers). Altern...

Re: SabNzb creating its own directories

In contrast to third-party apps that gather information from outside sources and databases, sabnzbd is blissfully unaware of what the nzb it's downloading is supposed to be, beyond what limited info it can gather from the job title (itself based on the nzb file name) and nzb metadata (if present). A...

Re: Increasing number of errors keep file from being completed after download + can't add similiar files

There's isn't much to say about the sabnzbd end with only that very limited piece of logging to go by. But that error comes directly from the OS in response to an attempts to create a directory, and given that your troubles started with moving the hard drives to a usb enclosure, that's where to star...

Re: Another thread titled "cannot get Sabnzbd to run as service"

If the service tells you to edit its config file, that means it didn't find a username in the config. Note that there's no "s" in /etc/default, and also systemd requires that you to run sudo systemctl daemon-reload every time you edit the config or it keeps using a cached copy. As for the ...

Re: Most "efficient", "appropriate" place to run SAB & the Arr's? M4 Mac Mini *and* Synology DS920+ available

Better hardware equals smoother operation, but once you get decent enough performance anything more might be good for bragging rights but won't make much of a practical difference. I wouldn't worry too much about destroying your hardware though: even for an entry-level consumer market SSD you´d have...

Re: 127.0.0.1

You'll have to be more specific about the exact error you're getting, what action you are trying to perform, what url you open, and so on. Sabnzbd does not come with builtin spyware, we can't look over your shoulder.

Re: 4.2.2.+dfsg-3 -> 4.4.1-0ubuntu1-jcpf-1-24.04

You need to restart sabnzbd after updating, otherwise it will attempt to load the new web interface files into the old version of the application that's still running. Restarting is only done automagically if you run the program as the service, using the service files provided in the package.

You can configure this in the category settings (also for the default category if you wish) by ending the path with an asterisk (*).

Re: SABnzbd fails to run under Fedora 41

The content of sabnzbd's git repo isn't a complete collection of everything needed to run the program. To run from source on linux, you have to also install its dependencies, either from packages provided by your linux distribution (that integrate nicely with the rest of the system, including the sy...

Re: First time asking for help.

How a browser such as Edge handles the nzb files you download, is something you'll have to configure in that program. Jobs are only automatically added if you make it open nzb files in sabnzbd by default, or save them in the directory configured as watched folder in sabnzbd.

Re: Disk error and Permissions error [Proxmox, NFS]

If the program tries to create a file and the operating system response is 'no can do', it has no choice but to relay that message. Similarly, changing permissions requires file ownership (or root); if the sab process doesn't own the files it creates, errors are the expected result. You want to setu...

Re: Can't get sabnzbd to start as a service

Please post the content of the /etc/default file. Does the user actually exist, as a regular (non-system) account that can login and use a shell?

Re: "Lost Connection," Signal 15 & Restart

You don't want to ignore signal 15, it's the normal way of telling a process to do a clean shutdown.

What if you ditch that healthcheck thing in the docker compose file? Any other process monitor active?

You want to replace your api keys on all indexers mentioned in your post STAT. The help on nzbfinder has complete example URLs for the CART and every (sub-)category of one's choice. CART only has stuff that was manually added and therefore only needs an 'accept *' filter in sabnzbd's rss settings. ...

Re: sabconect++ or nzbunity or any third party addon for adding nzb files to external sabznd server....

I'm not aware of any addon or script that limits itself to just that one function. And you can never be sure your data is safe, unless the extension is entirely open source and you actually audit its code prior to install (and every future update). Most indexers do have a curated rss feed ("car...
