Absolute path for Downloads

Post by timecmdr »

Hi All,

First post so go easy on me!

I;ve checked the wiki but I'm still having issues. I want to have my downloads/complete and incomplete to go to a folder which is not a subfolder of where sabnzbd is installed.

My ini file is stored at /root/.sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini


I have set the download folder to ~/Downloads/Complete but it Downloads to /root/~/Downloads/Complete as this is where the ini file is stored. Can this path be absolute rather than relative or do I have to move the sabnzbd.ini file?

Any directory path can go anywhere, as log as you type in an absolute path.
So any path starting with a slash '/'.
