SABnzbd 0.4.0 beta 2: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'

[sander]

SAB stopped again in the middle of a download. I did a CTRL-C and a new start-up, and got only this:

Code: Select all

sander@ubuntu804:~/SABnzbd-0.4.0Beta2$ ./SABnzbd.py
Traceback (most recent call last):

I'll do a fresh 'install' of SAB to see if that solves things.

This means that your cache limit is very badly formatted (Section "misc", keyword "cache_limit" in the INI file).
Corrupt INI file? Can you save it and examine it?

[sander]

sander@ubuntu804:~$ grep cache oud-puntsabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini
cache_dir = cache
cache_limit = ""
sander@ubuntu804:~$

I suppose that looks good, doesn't it?

Anyway: I (re)mv'd .sabnzbd/ and the SAB 0.4.0 directory, started up good old 0.3.4 (and created a new ini), just to make sure downloads still work at all. So far so good. If two downloads go well with 0.3.4, I'll go back to 0.4.0 beta 2 to see how things go there.

Thanks.

I think it chokes on cache_limit = "".
I already changed the code so that the empty string is interpreted as 0.
