Downloads Extracting Twice
Posted: January 9th, 2021, 12:51 pm
I am running SAB 3.1.1 (this also happens in 3.2.0) on Win10 and have a category that sets the Folder/Path to a share on my QNAP NAS, with a * at the end of it to prevent creation of job folders. This works in a general sense but it causes some weirdness with direct unpack.
When I set that category for a download, when it finishes direct unpacking, 100% of the file exists on my NAS and is fully accessible, but the job is not finished in SAB -- it continues running in the History tab for a minute or two. First it says Completed, but with the 4 parallel lines icon implying it's still doing something, then it says Moving, then it says Completed again with a checkmark showing that it's fully finished. This wouldn't be a big deal except, if I am downloading multiple things, the subsequent downloads are massively slowed down during this 1-2 minutes, barely downloading at half my bandwidth limit, I think due to the job being extracted a second time and using up system resources. If I remove the *, this stops happening, but then I'm stuck with a job folder that I don't want.
The +Debug logs are too long to include in this post in their entirety, but after testing a download with and without the * and then just eyeballing them side by side, the download with the * runs post-processing and a verification/repair and an unrar AFTER direct unpack has already finished. The download without the * doesn't do any of that. I'd be happy to email the full logs.
