Post Processing Script Stopped Working

Post by nzbds-dude82 »

Hi everyone,

Hope someone can help me with my issue. I noticed that my post processing script has stopped working and I am not sure why. I checked my logs for both SickBeard and CouchPotato and it says "Invalid number of arguments received from client."

I did notice this only happens if len(sys.argv) is anything but 8 or 3. I cannot for the life of me figure out how this all ties together and where the number is derived from.

Has anyone seen this happen and was able to fix it?
- I've redone the set up steps to see if there were issues with the connection or whatnot
- I checked and Sickbeard and CouchPotato can connect to Sabnzbd
- it's only the post processing script that fails...

I this this started to happen when I updated my Packages in Synology...

SABnzbd Version: 2.3.1-33
SickBeard Version: 20140528-5
CouchPotato version: 20141013-6

Maybe you can add a "print sys.argv" before the error and see what input it is getting?

Hi,

I've attached an image to the output of the log after putting in:

print (sys.argv)

print sys.argv (with the parameters split out)

Is there something amiss here?

That seems right and how it's always been: https://sabnzbd.org/wiki/scripts/post-p ... ng-scripts
8 + the path to the script.
