Re: New File Created Permissions Issues

Third party apps such as mylar don't read internal files directly, but talk to sabnzbd via an API. As such, strict permissions on these files aren't an issue, provided sabnzbd itself has sufficient access. Your actual problem is whatever causes the timeout. Take a look at the (debug) logging of sabn...

Re: Speeds capped about 1MB/s when running on a VM

The speed cap is consistent whether it's one of the test nzbs from the wrench icon or a more traditional release. Any ideas what I should check next? The speeds you mentioned closely align with 10 resp. 100 Mbit/s ethernet limits, suggesting the VM's network is capped at that for some reason even i...

Re: Sabnzbdplus fails to start on boot - systemd says Active:Exited

You need to configure the service by setting a valid user in /etc/default/sabnzbdplus (reboot or run 'sudo systemctl daemon-reload' afterwards). Until you do, the service cannot run the program and bails out - just as the status indicates.

Re: RSS items not unpacking

'Default' inherits the value of the setting from the builtin "Default" category, used for every job that wasn't specifically assigned to some other category. Hence, the difference between Default and +Delete depends entirely on your own settings for the Default category.

Re: BINHEX-SABNZBD password change.

You do need to shut down the application before making manual edits to the ini; if you don't, your changes will be overwritten.

Re: Need some help with sabnzbdplus on Ubuntu 22.04

Plain "python" refers to python2 in every mainstream linux distribution, which has been replaced by python3 by now. You'll have to fix or update whatever scripts your setup uses.

Re: Need some help with sabnzbdplus on Ubuntu 22.04

Doing ubuntu upgrades the official way disables third-party repositories such as PPAs as a precaution, and they may well choose to remove packages installed from there as well. The files under /etc are considered configuration files and remain on the system after uninstalling the package that put th...

Re: Reject regex help

You need to drop the "re:" part from your regex on that pythex website, otherwise it will only match strings that literally include "re:" such as "re:REMUX" or "re:DVD". Also note that with "DVD" in that list of alternatives, "DVDRip" is re...

Re: Sabnzbd Icon on Ubuntu

The standard way of displaying a tray icon on linux was removed by the gtk/gnome devs in their infinite wisdom, because "all functions tray icons provided can be replaced by notification popups". Except they cannot, and app developers ended up dealing with the fallout - such as users claim...

Re: DNS error but everything works fine

I think this is because unless Debug logging is enabled, the PPA version doesn't connect to the test host due to privacy concerns. Looks like that patch has neglected the web interface for a while now. On my TODO. To clarify: everything does work as intended with the check only done when debugging ...

Re: post spanning multiple nzb files

In sabnzbd and pretty much any other program that uses nzb files, each and every nzb is supposed to be a standalone, complete download; that is also how indexers tend to present results. From what you describe, this "easynews" service is downloading usenet group headers manually or present...

Re: 4.2 Alpha 2 Windows Defender and others on VirusTotal flag as containing a trojan

As usual, these 'security vendors' excel at producing false positives with 15/66 at virustotal claiming the latest rc is a trojan. Some will go as far as deleting the file even though it was explicitly whitelisted, see https://github.com/sabnzbd/sabnzbd/discussions/2757 (after taking a week to flag ...

Re: SAB seems to defeat QoS

Note that QoS does not "share" your bandwidth so that other services are guaranteed to get the minimum they need, it merely tries to prioritize. There's limits to how much that can do: usenet downloading uses many concurrent threads, while the other services you mention are typically singl...
