I'm suddenly seeing the above error from two different usenet providers? All has been running well previously for a couple of months so not sure why this would suddenly pop up. I did install Deluge yesterday - could this be related somehow?
This is on a VPS running Ubuntu 16.04 - any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks,

This may not help much, but I've just checked XS News - no problems there - connections are 'making' fine from my end.

Re: Errno 111 - Connection Refused
Why does it say "0.0.0.0:563"?
This seems to indicate that maybe something was altered in your hosts file? Or other DNS problems.
Because now reader.xsnews.nl resolves to IP address 0.0.0.0 somehow, which is of course wrong.
Have you tried restarting the box? And then removing and re-adding the servers using only basic (server/username/password) settings?

Re: Errno 111 - Connection Refused
If news.newshosting.com resolves to 0.0.0.0, there is something very wrong with your DNS / resolving.
I guess a reboot of your Ubuntu VPS will solve this.
If not:
1) on the CLI, type
and post the output here. See my example below.
2) set SABnzbd to debug, and tell what it says about its IP addresses under Status (=wrench symbol)

So we're definitely isolating the issue - I've got the feeling it's to do with installing Deluge and I switched on (then off) a plugin called blocklist? Thanks for your help so far

Re: Errno 111 - Connection Refused
is bad. It makes me think you cannot make an Internet connection at all. So let's check:Public IPv4 address Connection failed!
On your Ubuntu, what is the output of:
Code: Select all
python -c "import urllib2; response = urllib2.urlopen('https://ipinfo.io/ip'); print response.read() "
Code: Select all
$ python -c "import urllib2; response = urllib2.urlopen('https://ipinfo.io/ip'); print response.read() "

WAIT: you did reboot your machine, didn't you?
Re: Errno 111 - Connection Refused
Yes, I did reboot.
Output is 173.212.197.231 (which is my IP address)

Re: Errno 111 - Connection Refused
So the python one-liner does work? That is strange.
Can you check sabnzbd.log for lines with "news.newshosting.com" in it? Copy them here.

Thanks for your help - I've rolled the VPS back to a previous backup which has solved the problem. Will see if I can replicate.
Re: Errno 111 - Connection Refused
FYI - this happened again when I update Sabnzbd. I've no idea why but in doing the update it changes the addresses of both the usenet servers to 0.0.0.0 - so easy enough to fix when I spotted it.
Re: Errno 111 - Connection Refused
SAB changes the server names to "0.0.0.0"?! Can you post a screenshot of the Server page?
And if you change it back to the server name, does it work?
Re: Errno 111 - Connection Refused
I'm not able to screenshot as have changed them back to the normal settings - SAB works fine now. I updated using AtoMiC-ToolKit. I don't know if that is somehow related.
Re: Errno 111 - Connection Refused
If you can reproduce with AtoMiC-ToolKit, I would report it there: https://github.com/htpcBeginner/AtoMiC-ToolKit/issues
