SAB Keeping Files and copying script

Post by JeneralPain »

Hi Team,

System: Debian Ubuntu
SAB Version: 2.3.2[1cac579]
Python: 2.7.14 [GCC 7.2.0]
SSL: OpenSSL 1.0.2g

Basically when Sickbeard feeds a file into SAB, it'll download and do everything as it should. But it'll keep a version in two folders:

Completed Folder: /media/downloads/sabcomplete
SickBeard Folders: /media/downloads/sickcomplete

So it keeps two copies of the same file, now I can manually purge the sabcomplete folder but can't see a way to stop it saving two copies. The Sick Complete folder is funnelled through the autoprocess.cfg script from Sickbeard.

I'm not quite sure what I've missed to stop it filing the files twice.

I can't post a snippet of the log because I keep hitting the "user cannot post links" error...

Thanks

JP

I think this is a sickbeard setting that you want to delete the original file.
When Sickbeard is run, SABnzbd has done all the work it will do. So the deleteing should happen after that.

Alright, I might poke deeper into my Sick config then. Explains why I didn't find anything that bleedingly obvious when I went looking in SAB.

EDIT: Thank you, I found the setting, it was bleedingly obvious in SICK not SAB :(

Thank you very much for your reply :)
