Sabnzbd won`t work

Post by bbbb1969 »

Hello.

I have been using Sabnzbd a long time, but now it won`t work anymore.

Getting this error when clicking warnings and configuration:

Unrecoverable error in the server.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "cherrypy\_cprequest.pyo", line 589, in run
File "cherrypy\_cprequest.pyo", line 690, in respond
File "cherrypy\_cprequest.pyo", line 767, in handle_error
File "cherrypy\_cperror.pyo", line 394, in set_response
File "cherrypy\_cperror.pyo", line 400, in get_error_page
File "cherrypy\_cperror.pyo", line 537, in get_error_page
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0xe6 in position 1055: invalid continuation byte

I have tried several versions also some of the later ones.

I am using windows 7

Are you on SABnzbd 2.3.0?
Can you restart SABnzbd? Does it work then?
Do you have any special characters in your Windows-username, for example umlauts etc?

I think there's something broken in the history. Can you shutdown SABnzbd, then go to (press WindowsKey+R):
%userprofile%\AppData\Local\sabnzbd\admin

And then delete "history1.db" and "queue10.sab"

Then start SABnzbd again.

Yes, in the General page of the configuration. It's called Web interface.
Why do you prefer the old one? It hasn't been updated in years and misses features we recently introduced (like Direct Unpack).
