Post by mandrews60 »

ive got a question about sab not marking a download as failed, its continues to list it as verifying or repairing. it's been doing this for over 12 hrs and it causes my sab to pause. im not totally for sure how to share my logs with everyone. i appreciate your help and patience with me

Normally this can be fixed by killing the par2.exe process.

It hangs sometimes, I have no idea why. When it happens to me I just kill the par2.exe process in Task Manager, let it fail, then repair/extract manually.

when sabnzbd won't mark a file as failed, it will have a spinning circle on the left side of the screen. when this happens, sab auto pause and download anything else until i manually push the unpause

Go to Config and then the Switches page, you probably turned on "Pause downloads on post processing" .
