Sab unpack fails with some Python error

Downloads fine. No missing parts

Gives the same error for all files. Mint 18.3. Sab 2.3.9RC1

What is "endswith"?

endswith means ends_with ... so a check on the last characters of a strings. In this case: command[0].endswith('.py') ... so does it end on '.py' ... in other words: is it a python script.

As this happens in postproc.py ... what kind of post-processing script did you specify?

I don't think it found the 7zip executable. Is 7z or 7za in /usr/bin/?

In that case there will have been a startup error, was there?

Sorry for the long delay in replying, been out of town a lot.

There is no post processing script. The download was in the "TV" category, but all that entails is a specific unpack folder (which isn't full).

7zip is not missing as far as I can tell. I sort of remember setting up a multicore 7z bin a while back, maybe that's it? I'll look in to it more, been a while since I set it up....

Seems to be just those particular files. So not any script. Other stuff I've attempted since then has worked.

I was able to go in and extract the files manually from the sab temp folder using 7z. I think that PC has a multicore par2 bin I compiled years ago, but the files weren't missing parts. Who knows.

Anyway, thanks for the reply, guess it was just something weird about that one download.

Could you maybe send me the NZB at [email protected]? So I can give it a try :)

Re: Sab unpack fails with some Python error

Post by sander »

I moved this topic here, as it seems to be the same.

So ...
0) what are the 10 log lines before the part you posted? Also something with 7zip?
1) can you share the NZB, via PM/DM or otherwise
2) any postprocessing script involved?

Some technical analysis from Python side:

I think this is meant/expected as normal SAB behaviour:

Code: Select all

>>> command = ['myscript.py', 'blaPar', 'blaDir']
>>> command[0].endswith('.py')
True
Some examples how it can go wrong (Python-wise)

Code: Select all

>>> command = [None, 'blaPar', 'blaDir']
>>> command[0].endswith('.py')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'endswith'
>>> 
>>> command = [None]
>>> command[0].endswith('.py')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'endswith'
>>> 

>>> command = [None, 'myscript.py', 'blaPar', 'blaDir']
>>> command[0].endswith('.py')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'endswith'
>>> 
So, my guess is that somehow command[0] has become None. As the OP has no postprocessing script defined, the reason might be there ... so let's dig deeper:

Two lines before the traceback:

Code: Select all

  File "/usr/share/sabnzbdplus/sabnzbd/newsunpack.py", line 1034, in seven_extract_core
    stup, need_shell, command, creationflags = build_command(command)


In the source;

Code: Select all

    command = [SEVEN_COMMAND, method, '-y', overwrite, parm, case, password,
               '-o%s' % extraction_path, name]

    stup, need_shell, command, creationflags = build_command(command)
Ah, SEVEN_COMMAND thus None? Let's check the source:

Code: Select all

sabnzbd/newsunpack.py:83:SEVEN_COMMAND = None
Yes, None is the default value ... which causes the problem if it is not overwritten with a meaningful value.

This is part of the 7zip unpacking code. Not custom post processing scripts. There might be a mistake in there.

On the first page of the Config, does it show that 7zip is missing?

... and/or check sabnzbd.log for a line like "7za binary", like

Code: Select all

2019-06-23 16:12:23,629::INFO::[sabnzbdplus:447] 7za binary... found (/usr/bin/7za)
And this is bad:

Code: Select all

2019-07-06 21:58:58,720::INFO::[sabnzbdplus:449] 7za binary... NOT found!
Solve it on Ubuntu by installing p7zip-full

OK, I reproduced it:

removed p7zip-full from my Ubuntu
SAB then says "7za binary... NOT found!" in sabnzbd.log
Let SAB download https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sande ... 8fcddd.nzb
... resulting in "Post Processing Failed for reftestnzb-7z-instead-of-rar-ea5b7e8fcddd (see logfile)", plus a traceback:

IMHO SAB should not give a traceback, but a Warning.

So @legoman666 and @wcanyon ... did you install 7zip / 7z / 7za / p7zip-full, restart SABnzbd, and try again with the same NZB?

I installed p7zip-full and the error that I was seeing went away. Thanks for the assist.
