Still cannot connect to Sab UI

Post by opentoe »

I'm still driving myself crazy here. I must have went over the settings over and over to find out why I cannot load the Sab UI. I can easily ping the computer, access shares from the computer and do everything that I'm supposed to be able to.
http://blackred:8989 this is Sonarr and works great.
http://blackred:8080 this is the SABui and just times out.
Even when I am on Sonarr and "test" Sabnzbd as my download client it passes the test fine.
This is what my Windows diagnostics says:

I have tried using different computers also. There has to be something I'm missing. Something really stupid I bet. I also turned off my firewall, still no go. Come on, someone must know something keeping those secrets from me again! :)

I know, it's a big PUNK on me, right? You guys are punking me, I know it!!!!
Well, if ANYONE, even that little mouse that grabs that piece of cheese everyday let it out! Thanks.

- Did you set the SABnzbd Host to empty or 0.0.0.0?
- Try using another port.
- Use the IP (192.168.1.122?) instead of blackred to rule out that part
- A log at DEBUG level, starting at the moment SABnzbd starts and including your access attempt, might be helpful.

**RESOLVED** Re: Still cannot connect to Sab UI

UPDATE - GOOD NEWS!

UPDATE: I'm almost embarrassed to post this but I believe I have JUST found the problem. IDIOT me wanted to try Windows 11, so instead of using my beautiful built-in VM capability on my unraid server I downloaded Oracle VirtualBox like a dummy. Need I say more? My power computer that runs all my programs and services has a DHCP reservation, so it will always pick up the same IP address on my network. After you stab me in the eye with a pencil Virtual Box was changing that IP address with some sort of process that was running in memory, so it was picking up a completely different IP. I just tried Hydra, clicked on the sabnzbd icon and all my nice categories showed up like normal. Ok, you can now stick me in my other eye with a blow poke from a fireplace. Sometimes I can miss such the small things and it drives me nuts. As I shake my head back and forth I'm still trying to find a reason why in the world I would ever even use VirtualBox when unraid has all the VM capabilities built right in.
Well, I want to thank all of you who tried to help me and were going to help me. I really do appreciate all the work that's put into this program and how good it runs, even in a docker. Ok, you can now shoot me. If I wasn't so tired I believe I would be beating myself up.
