SABnzdb server test failure

[sander]

I don't see the full sabnzbd.log (no download, no newszilla, no us-secure.newsdemon.com), so I can't help you further.

Maybe this ugly workaround works for you: do not fill out us-secure.newsdemon.com, but it's IPv4 address 69.16.179.22

I have the same exact problem on FreeNAS and SABnzbd 1.x.

The funny thing is if I import my old sabnzbd.ini which already has the servers setup, the actual downloading will work if I add an nzb, but testing the connection under Servers give the ERRNO message.

Also wanted to add that nothing gets logged about the failed test in the logfile even when set to debug.

Did anyone resolve this issue? I'm having exact same problem :/

I had the exact same issue. SABNzbd 1.0.3 running on my FreeNAS (9.10) server, and when I went to add a new newserver today, (news.newsgroup.ninja), I got the same "No route to host" message. I followed the suggestions earlier in the thread, set the logging to +Debug, rebooted SABNzbd and then downloaded something, and the log file did indeed show lots of the following [happyeyeballs] message;

Code: Select all

2016-08-19 21:49:47,627::DEBUG::[happyeyeballs:113] Happy Eyeballs lookup took 23.4375 microseconds

So taking a cue from sander's comments in this thread, I went into Config -> Switches -> Server and changed;

Code: Select all

Allow load-balancing with optimization for IPv6

to

Code: Select all

Allow load-balancing

Restarted SABNzbd, and everything is working correctly now.

Thanks..

and everything is working correctly now.

Thanks for the feedback.
This is important because the SABnzbd team cannot solve all problems.
There are just too many different systems in the world.
