Synology "Failed to start SABnzbd"

Post by normie »

Hey all.

Synology DS1817+ with DSM 7.1.1-42962 Update 5, SABnzbd version 3.7.2-60 installed with Python 3.11 in support as expected. Every repair, uninstall, reinstal etc has the same issue, "Failed to start SABnzbd"

It used to work fine (it's been a while) but I think DSM 5.x was the last time it has officially "worked". I don't believe anything has changed systematically except for updating DSM and python versions in support.

I've looked for info to try to evaluate how to troubleshoot, but the info is sparse (or my search skills suck).

Any pointers?

You should remove the package with all content and then reinstall.
Could be that some leftover sabnzbd.ini setting that causes a problem.
