can you share debug logs of the issue you are seeing just so we can clarify a few things.
in sab, click wrench and set logging level to debug if its not. restart sab and replicate your issue then share the file from wrench>show logging

also if you were not aware of this option:

sab - config ...

the free space check is done at start of job, so if your deleting stuff out from under sab it wouldnt really know until next job

are you running sab on a machine with little storage and then some other app moves it to another place that has storage... if so wouldnt the fix just be run sab where the storage is or move sab complete folder to that storage location?

this was already reported and fixed in dev, so will be in next release

In this case it wouldn't help. It's a race condition and a bug all at once.


yeah i didnt say it would :) just was responding to sander, i saw your comment that basically direct unpacker aborts and deletes and goes fubar..
but was a bit shocked we didnt log why and just said no files extract ...

zoggy, did you read Safihre's issue & analysis on https://github.com/sabnzbd/sabnzbd/issues/3212 ?

looking at your issue, you can see that sab asks unrar to unpack.. but something happen where unrar didnt extract anything:

apologies but i do not have the logs, so ill have to ask how do you install sab (source/ppa/some other method).. and what version of unrar you have installed?

Often if I just re add them they'll work - there doesnt seem to be much consistency.


assuming you are using sab 4.5.5, if not.. update to latest.
what os/env do you run sab? do you use container - if so which one?
