Okay, to avoid going through the setup again, I assume I can just take a backup of /apps/sabnzbd/config/sabnzbd.conf and recreate the links for Downloads and logs after installing.

Can I also save the admin folder and move it back into place after reinstalling (but before starting up).

Could it be database corruption following an ungraceful shutdown? Is that a known issue maybe?

Hi guys, any idea why it doesn't restart after flicking the power switch? Thanks.

Got it, thank you.

I had to flick the power switch to bring the NAS back to life, but now sab won't start. Where can I find the logs please? Or do you know what I might need to do, to get it running again?

Thanks safihre, and sorry for the slow reply. That switch looks like the perfect solution! If I can't set that from within the web interface (?), then can you give me the path to the config file that I'll need to edit please? And what command (or set of commands) should I run from my (more powerful)...

Hi Safihre. I was drawn to the concept of SAB (on NAS) because I could queue things up and forget about it. The NAS is tucked away and remains on. If I'm to run it on my mac now, it means I need to think about what's in the queue and make a decision each day about whether to leave it on or turn it o...

Hi Sander. I'm doing my best to help you help me, but you're ignoring my questions. And now you seem to be suggesting that I shouldn't be using SAB (or asking for help) if I'm a newbie? Anyway... I don't own a PC and can't buy another server just for this function. I'd like to use my NAS, even thoug...

Hi Sander. The SABnzbd web interface isn't responding, so I'm not sure how to have it download that file? Here's some data from earlier downloads though, if that helps? While system was overloaded... SABnzbd has downloaded "a post" Finished at 2017-01-14 02:57:04 Downloaded 7.2 GB Results ...

Thanks Sander. It seems like SAB is having to repair most posts. How would I go about telling it to find better posts? (via couchpotato)

Or... can I modify the "repair" call somehow, so it runs with a better nice value? I don't care if the repair takes twice as long.

Hi there, I'm new to SAB and it's installed on a ReadyNAS 10400. It seems to work fine until a download finishes and it enters the next stage. At that point, my ReadyNAS grinds to a halt and SAB reports increasingly big sysloads (in the top right corner of the web interface) I see three recently fin...
