Upgraded to 4.0.1 now constant "Corrupt RAR file"

Post by ohmyjosh »

It doesn't seem to be downloading PAR files at all despite having "Download all par2 files" checked. I checked with a different nzb downloader and the PAR files are all part of the NZB file.

I'm hoping there's some simple setting I've missed - but this is very frustrating.

Thanks for help.

What do you get with the Test download via the Wrench?

With the test download, it unpacks perfectly. I think if the files are perfect it works fine, but the PAR function isn't working at all. I'm running on Windows so I THINK the PAR stuff is installed automatically...

So if you downgrade Sabnzbd, and try your same download ...

I redownloaded and installed the newest BETA RC... Loaded the same NZB file and got same result - CORRUPT RAR FILE. It's just not downloading the PAR files at all and not fixing the files.

I turned off "Post-Process Only Verified Jobs" and the file (and another test file) worked fine. I'm so confused.

If you think it worked with an *older* version of SAB, downgrade to that version, and try again.

I kept having issues - moved back to 3.7.2 and it thankfully seems to be working again. Thanks.

Don't you want to find out what is going on?

Because if you can really reproduce with 4.0.1 and you cannot with 3.7.2, and you want to find out:

Share the loggings on https://paste.ofcode.org/ or share the loggings via mail
plus the .NZB as a bonus

I must say I don't see changes in RAR PAR2 stuff in the releases notes after 3.7.2
