Files deleted after failed par check - where are they?

Post by locoroco80s »

I have sab to repair, check, unrar and delete the original files when done.

Just downloaded some files and it's come up as not enough blocks to repair and so it deleted all the original rar files. They're not in the trash — I'm on a mac.

Anyone know if there is a way of finding the files some where and then I can manually check them. Don't want to have to redownload all the rars again.

When post processing fails, sabnzbd should move the rar's to a folder called "_FAILED_Name Of Nzb". It won't have deleted them.

Seee whta's wierd is when you roll over the X icon in the download history it says 49 files deleted rather than the usual couple.

Did it do the unrar stage in the history too? Setting "Safe PostProcessing" on will stop any more postprocessing if par2 fails. As for your files, I don't know. But unless you had access to another server you would likely not be able to have repaired the files.
