sab cant 'see' new download folder

Post by apcrcom »

I just put in a new disk that I want to use as a temp drive for nzb downloads. When I go to enter the path in SABNZBD Folder Settings, it cant 'see' the folders. Also if I give it a non existent foldername, it says it cant create it.

On the disk the folders look like this: (full permissions set)

ls -l

Code: Select all

drwxrwxrwx 15 video video  4096 Sep 30 19:46 Clonezilla
drwxrwxrwx  2 video video 16384 Sep 30 15:50 lost+found
drwxrwxrwx  6 video video  4096 Sep 30 23:08 TEMP
drwxrwxrwx  9 video video  4096 Sep 30 19:09 TMP
id sabnzbd

Code: Select all

uid=1003(sabnzbd) gid=44(video) groups=44(video),1004(sabnzbd)
folders are on the root of the drive, mounted:

Code: Select all

UUID=7ded7954-1d15-49da-9235-e7aeb43b3b89 none            swap    sw              0       0

/etc/systemd/system/sabnzbd.service:

Code: Select all

[Unit]
Description=SABnzbd Usenet Client
After=network.target

[Service]
Type=simple
User=sabnzbd
Group=video
ExecStart=/usr/bin/python -OO /usr/bin/sabnzbdplus --browser 0 & 
ExecStop=/usr/bin/pkill sabnzbdplus
Restart=always
SyslogIdentifier=SABnzbd Usenet Client

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
The folders were made by root, so just for shits and giggles I made a folder with a user account then changed the ownership (video:video) and permissions (+777). Still not visible to sabnzbd. Them, because I appear to be a total masochist, I made TEMP pwned by sabnzbd:video, but ... not visible either.

Help!
