two browser windows open on startup

Post by fusen »

when I launch sab 4.0, I get two new tabs in firefox instead of just one.

I don't have the secondary interface enabled.

I also get this error in the 'warning' section;

"WARNING
Cannot launch the browser, probably not found"

There's some timeout that makes SABnzbd think the browser does not start.
Do you have a username/password set?

What platform (OS)?
Did you clear the browser cache (Control-F5 for Firefox).

windows xp sp3

I'm not sure how a hard refresh would make any different to sabnzbd.exe opening two browser windows?

I'll need to check on an XP-SP3 system first.
What kind of software firewall do you use?

I tested on XP-SP3, but I cannot find a problem with it.
As a work-around you can prevent browser startup in Config-Switches.
