Installed 2.3.6 from 2.3.5: WARNING API key incorrect

Post by luckyrod »

I just upgraded from 2.3.5 to 2.3.6. The install seemed to mix up my shortcuts from both versions and didn't delete all of 2.3.5. I had to uninstall both versions and then reinstall 2.3.6. Now when I run from Sonarr I get a WARNING API key incorrect, Use the API key from Config->General in your 3rd party program: 127.0.0.1>Sonarr/2.0.0.5252 (windows 10.0.17763.0).

The API key in SAB is static and won't let me change it to the key that I see in Sonarr. The sonarr key is also static and will not let me change it to the one I see in SAB.

Windows 10, with Chrome as a browser. Test Server is Connection Succesful.

You can change the SABnzbd API key in Sonarr, make sure to edit it in Download clients and not Sonar's own API-key :)

Thank you so much for the quick reply. That did solve my problem. After installing 2.3.6 I no longer see the program in windows 10 Start Menu.

Is it installed in C:\Program Files\SABnzbd?
If you open Start Menu and start typing SABnzbd, will it find it?

Safihre so sorry for the delay. The program was not in C:\Program Files\SABnzbd but in another directory. I moved it to your suggested location and I still do not see it when I look for it in start. To complicate matters when I do start it my queue is gone. Do you have any suggestions?

How did you install exactly? Seems you didn't use the regular installer, maybe you used the Standalone version?

That is why all the shortcuts are messed up, because you did not use the installer. You have placed it in a custom location, maybe even left it inside the archive.

Please install using the Windows Installer :)

Done. All good except my old queue is gone, but that is not really a problem. Thank you much.
