Dirscan items queueing twice

Post by emroc »

Hi all,

I seem to be having an issue with my installation. It started happening after I upgraded from the original SABnzbd to SABnzbdplus.
Every time I download an NZB to my blackhole directory, the download will start within a second or two and show up in my queue, but then a second identical download will start another second or two later. I'm assuming this has something to do with my configuration.

Any ideas?

Version: 0.3.0 Final
OS: Windows Vista SP1
Install-type: Windows Installer
Template (if applicable): Plush
Firewall Software: None
Are you using IPV6? no
Is the issue reproducible? yes

Does SABnzbd have permission to delete the files?
Can you see that they are removed?

Yes, SABnzbd has permissions on the folder.
The NZBs get deleted everytime.

Do you use the firefox plugin nzbdstatus at all?

By default it will add any downloaded nzb file to sabnzbd. Thus if you download one to your blackhole (dir scanning) folder, it will get added once by nzbdstatus, and will also get picked up by sabnzbd.

You can turn this off from nzbdstatus from the configuration; set "Send nzb files to this daemon" to off.

Ah, you're absolutely right. Good call.
It's strange, I never experienced this issue before, and I've had the plugin installed for quite a while.


Anyway, thanks a lot for your help.
