SAB stuck "Running script: sabToSickBeard.py"

Post by gers1978 »

Lately my SABnzbd+ keeps getting stuck saying "Running script: sabToSickBeard.py" (version 0.7.11). I can't seem to clear it from SAB, repairing queue doesn't help, neither does clicking "Remove completed NZBs" or "Remove failed NZBs".

It's worked fine for months, this has just started recently.

It would also appear the file in question has been downloaded and post-processed correctly, and sits in the correct output folder and is marked in SickBared as "Downloaded".

Looks like something's wrong at the Sickbeard end.
If a script never returns control to SABnzbd, there's nothing we can do about it.

Ok, but how do I clear it out of my SAB history?

Kill the script using your OS's task manager.
SABnzbd will then flag it as failed.

Thanks.
If I open activity monitor and kill Python, as soon as I kill it, I get a Growl notification from SAB saying the show has downloaded/finished processing and the status in SAB changes to "Ran SABToSickBeard.py" in green and I can clear it as normal.

OK, but at least it unlocked the post-processing queue.
Technically the job did not fail.
I think there is an option in SickBeard to let it scan your complete folder,
so that you don't need the script.
