Newzbin not working in Chroot Debian Install with Beta 5

[kfc]

Hi Guys,

I have beta5 working well on my thecus NAS unit, except for one thing, none of the newzbin functionality seems to be working. I can't seem to add or view bookmarks, the client times out when trying to get the nbz's from newzbin.

I can however download the nbz manually and add that to SAB and it does its stuff as expected.
I can ping v3.newzbin.com

Is there some module I am missing or perhaps permissions granted to certain areas, or any other checks I can do for more troubleshooting

Any help will be appreciated.


Version: 0.4.0B5
OS: Debian Min Install
Install-type: python 2.5.2 source
Template Plush
Firewall Software: None,
Are you using IPV6? not sure
Is the issue reproducible? yes

Can you add a download on the main page by the newzbin id?

SABnzbd makes connections to newzbin over HTTPS so you may need some sort of SSL package for your NAS unit. If you don't mind fiddling with the source, you can change occurrences of HTTPSConnection to HTTPConnection in newzbin.py to see if it makes a difference.

Less likely as you are timing out, but just for completeness verify your newzbin user name and password are indeed correct under Config>Newzbin

Hi Switch

Changing HTTPSConnection to HTTPConnection in newzbin.py worked! Now all I have to do is find out what module is missing, strange. Any ideas? I will do some googling.

Edit: I suspect it is the pyopenssl module which says is optional so i didnt install it, now to get that working and I suspect that will resolve this.

thanks.

I installed the module and though everything would work great but I still have the same problem. None of the newzbin functionality works, When I change the HTTPSConnection to HTTP the message ID's are able to be fetched but I am unable to still retrieve bookmarks and view processed bookmarks.

- I have no failures in the modules on startup and all are able to be found.

I will have a looking in newzbin.py and see if there is anything obvious that is stopping me.

With HTTPS connections added back in, could you add a few random newzbin ids and generally break it a few times. Then send off your sabnzbd.log to [email protected] please.

It will help in adding support for machines that cannot use the HTTPS connections (such as yours) and then try on a HTTP connection instead.
