download problem (neverending "fetching")

Post by chokomon »

I have a problem that just started recently: when I try to download things using the "http offer" in NZB TV or by clicking the little "SAB" icon that the nzbdStatus extension adds to newzbin listings, the file gets stuck in SAB (0.4.5) saying "fetching msgid ####### from www.newzbin.com" and never actually downloads.  If I manually download the NZB file and put in blackhole directory, it downloads fine.

Any thoughts?   ???

Thanks

What happens if you type in a newzbin report number into SABnzbd directly, so without using nzbStatus?

Same problem - says "fetching" forever.

Maybe you made a typo in the username/password?

Set logging to Debug and check what is logged after a new attempt.

Weird.  I shutdown SAB and restarted it, and the problem went away!

It is possible that (due to programming error) the newzbin task crashed.
The rest of SABnzbd will just keeps working.

Too bad that evidence recovery wasn't possible (no blame on you).
