Unable to create folder bu SabNzb

Post by Migeye »

Since I did the update to 2.1.0 I get this message after downloading

PostProcessing was aborted (Cannot create final folder................

Seems SabNzb is unable to create a folder in the folder I setup. I don' t use a NAS for downloads, just normal PC with local drive where the folder is located to exrtact to. I only did the client update.

Manual extracting is no problem.

and H: is
... an internal disk
... an external disk (USB)
... a NAS?

Which filesystem on that disk: FAT, NTFS, ... ?

Does it happen with each download?
Does H:\NZB\Uitgepakt\ exist?

Final, and very import: in sabnzbd.log, check for the line with "FAT" in it ... what does it say?

Completed Download Folder /home/<USERNAME>/Downloads/complete is not on FAT
or
Completed Download Folder /home/<USERNAME>/Downloads/complete is on FAT

It's a internal NTFS Disk
Yes, all downloads

I also created a new folder to extract to, changed the download folder in SabNZB but problem remains

Before the update all worked ok.

thanks for looking into it btw:)

Ok, did this as a test,

Changed the "completed" location to the same drive as the download location. This works.

I use a smaller SSD drive to download to keep up with the download speed and a separate bigger drive to extract the downloads to.

Looks like a access right issue. The first mentioned folder H:\NZB\Uitgepakt\ was a previous shared folder.
I created on H in the root a new folder H:\Uitgepakt, not shared and SabNZB can extract there just fine.

Strange that after the update this occured.

It's the same deal with most filesystems (more accurately, filesystems on rotating media). Anything beyond 99% usage on a single disk and it'll slow down. I stick to 95% fill rate for each of my disks, never had a problem with filesystems.



Anything copying to SMB shouldn't have a problem - would be interesting to see which end has the problem
