Secondary Server Not Saving to Config.INI?

Post by chuckmehle »

I have SABNZBD running on my Synology NAS (1019+).

I wanted to add a secondary news server to it == so I went through the process and hit TEST which worked and then save.

When I went back to the main screen, I saw a message that it failed to log on to the new news server.

I went back several times and although the TEST of the new server info works fine, when you save it it does not appear to save the login credentials.

I have come to the conclusion that it didnt write the config.ini file, but rather tested with the credentials on the screen at the time.

Although I think I have figured out the problem, the solution seems to escape me.

How can I get SAB to properly write the config.ini file to save the sever credentials?

Has anyone seen this issue before on a synology?

It could be that your sabnzbd.ini isn't writable. Are you able to save any other settings?
Indeed when it fails to logon, it doesn't save it. Are you sure you add the details correctly?
