Can't get the downloads to start

Post by Felix DeZwart »

Hi,

I had some trouble with setting up my server, but after that had been resolved I found that my downloads just sit there; they don't automatically start.

It's been a while since I used SabNZB, but I seem to recall it wasn't like this before. Any clues at what I may be doing wrong/what settings to check?

Thanks!

ping news.pureusenet.com

Hi Shypike,

I tried that, and as I said, it connected. The downloads don't start however...

Any error messages?
Does "Test server" work in Setup->Servers?
SABnzbd isn't paused?
