Downloaded files not being combined

[redbeard]

Hi all.

I have just set up sabnzdb on a raspberry pi and tested a download.

I am left with 10 files - all with odd file names such as "0L8UW9gFOOENudDfz4TjFnSmOl1lKxwH7wXYG8clsYNkQVdeyOCnWyX2iJ7rxG3b" and with no extension.

I assume these are supposed to be combined into the single file?

First things first:

In SABnzbd's upper right corner, click on the wrench symbol ("Status and interface options"), then click on first tab Status, click Test download 1GB.

What is the result?

I don't have that as an option. When I go to the wrench symbol I have:

Then you must be using a very, very old version of SABnzbd.

Which might explain why your download is not going as expected.

I'm running

Version: 2.3.6 [190ec0a]

I have only just installed from apt-get and when I try and update, it says I have the latest version....

Current Sab version is 4.0.1

Ok - I must have installed an old version from apt-get

I am trying now to install/run 4.0.1 but having all sorts of issues.

Current issue is when running:

pip3 install --upgrade -r requirements.txt

I get an error:

Building wheels for collected packages: cryptography
Building wheel for cryptography (pyproject.toml) ... error
error: subprocess-exited-with-error

× Building wheel for cryptography (pyproject.toml) did not run successfully.
│ exit code: 1

And then further down:

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.
ERROR: Failed building wheel for cryptography
Failed to build cryptography
ERROR: Could not build wheels for cryptography, which is required to install pyproject.toml-based projects

I'm not sure if these matter at all?

But when I run:

python3.8 SABnzbd.py

I get:


Not all required Python modules are available, please check requirements.txt
Missing module: sabctools
You can read more at: https://sabnzbd.org/wiki/installation/i ... ff-modules
If you still experience problems, remove all .pyc files in this folder and subfolders


I cant seem to figure out how to install sabctools even though it says I have version 7.1.0 installed.

Ok correction - now I have an error saying that Cheetah isn't installed but cheetah isn't supported by Python 3.8

hmmmmmm

All kinds of dependencies ... :-(
And maybe even different versions of python3?

Is it an option to install Ubuntu on your Raspi? With Ubuntu you have the big big advantage you get everything via PPA

EDIT:

You can run SABnbd on any Linux, but as you experience, you might need to do some googling the solve package problems. With Ubuntu it's easier

Or run SABnzbd within Docker.

If you're running Raspi OS and/or Raspbian, and that's still Debian based: https://packages.debian.org/buster/sabnzbdplus Buster has sabnzbdplus 2.3.6

... whereas Bullseye https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/sabnzbdplus has sabnzbdplus 3.1.1

AFAIK
Buster released 2019
Bullseye released 2021

... so your current OS is a bit old?

I have just updated to Bullseye

PRETTY_NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)"
NAME="Raspbian GNU/Linux"
VERSION_ID="11"
VERSION="11 (bullseye)"
VERSION_CODENAME=bullseye
ID=raspbian
ID_LIKE=debian

Running this:

sudo apt install sabnzbdplus

I get this error:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
sabnzbdplus : Depends: unrar but it is not installable or
rar but it is not installable

A bit stuck so I might reach out to raspi forums.

Thanks for your help

Another approach to avoid dependency stuff: use python's venv (virtual environment). See viewtopic.php?t=26235 for hints ... it should be less work as you don't need the python3.11 stuff.
