SABnzbd / Win 10 crashes on startup

Post by RoadHazard »

Running SABnzbd 2.3.1 on Windows 10. It's been working fine for months, but now it crashes within about 5 seconds of starting. Rebooting the PC doesn't help, and downloading and reinstalling SAB doesn't help. SAB runs just barely long enough for the web UI to pop open for about 2-3 seconds before displaying the "can't connect" message. This is all very repeatable.

Tried launching SAB with --logging 2 enabled, but the log file doesn't contain any obvious errors. It finishes with several lines about connecting to my news hosting service, then stops abruptly.

Any ideas?

Could you try 2.3.2RC1 from the downloads page?
This should fix it.
Please let me know :)

Hey, that seems to work! SAB has been running for entire minutes without crashing.

I do notice that I can't access it across the LAN from another PC, however. But that may be an unrelated configuration problem. I'll look into it a bit more...

Great!
Try setting your SABnzbd host to 0.0.0.0
Alsp maybe do a restart, Win 10 can be annoying with blocked ports sometimes.
