Infrequent issue for duplicate file unpacks?

Post by hl2guide »

Bug encountered in SABnzbd 2.3.1 For Windows 64-bit.

Every 8 or so downloads I get the unpack attempt (may be Direct Unpack) creating duplicate unpack folders and doubling the disk space taken.

e.g. "_UNPACK_%FILENAME_HERE%" and "_UNPACK_%FILENAME_HERE%.1" folders both each taking up say 2GB then the unpack completes and then "_UNPACK_%FILENAME_HERE%" is not deleted as part of the clean up after a successful unpack.

Is anyone else experiencing this disk space waste issue?

Maybe you can enable Debug logging in the status Window so we can try and figure out why it is not cleaning up properly.
Next time it fails we can then inspect the logs.

OK, I've enabled debug logging and will wait until it happens again.
