Empty NZB Files and Not Adding Files to sabnzbd

Post by King_Monkfish »

So fairly new to all of this, but I have the following issue which I am not able to resolve myself now.

I can get neither Couchpotato or Sickbeard to add files into sabnzbd.

Couchpotato seems to search and then come back with no results at all, log states the following when trying to search:

Lots of errors like above and then this one:
01-04 19:23:14 ERROR[tato.core.plugins.release] Tried to download, but the "nzb" provider gave an error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/share/MD0_DATA/.qpkg/CouchPotato2/CouchPotato2/couchpotato/core/plugins/release/main.py", line 311, in download filedata = data.get('download')(url = data.get('url'), nzb_id = data.get('id')) File "/share/MD0_DATA/.qpkg/CouchPotato2/CouchPotato2/couchpotato/core/media/_base/providers/nzb/newznab.py", line 196, in download response = e.read().lower() AttributeError: 'HTTPError' object has no attribute 'read'
Just says that it was searching but never snatches anything into sab. I was working and worked for about 5 movies but now, nothing.

Sickbeard is not much better. I can search for a show and it seems to talk to sab but then sab itself has the following warnings:
2016-01-04 17:13:51,771 WARNING: Empty NZB file 90096af9d9bd4e668678fe272e492b27.nzb&i=419634&r=2d201a3946b8e0885ef7cdeef54ac60a.nzb [https://api.oznzb.com/getnzb/90096af9d9 ... eef54ac60a]

One error for each file by the looks of it.

If anyone can help that would be great.

Thanks

You should edit that to remove your private API key, and then you should go to OZnzb and change it to a new one.

SABnzbd either receives a truly empty NZB or there's something wrong with
the user identification parameters in the URL.
In the latter case SABnzbd receives some HTML page that effectively is an empty NZB file.
Unfortunately many indexers do not return proper error messages but HTML gibberish that
only makes sense to humans after rendering by a web browser.
