SAB not autostarting in ubuntu

[0lek]

Dears,

I have searched this forum, looked everywhere and used IGS (intensive google search). However, I cannot get this to work. It's driving me nuts. If started manually, all is fine. However, autostart using System V is not working. It is starting up, as I see the rc2.d script in processes, seconds later the correct python execution of sab, but then it's gone.

My setup:

• Ubuntu 3.8.0-32-generic
• SABNZDplus ubuntu package 0.7.16
• SABNZDPlus started via System V (/etc/init.d/sabnzdplus)
• SABNZDPlus started as user xbmc

/etc/default/sabnzdplus:

Code: Select all

# [required] user or uid of account to run the program as:
USER=xbmc

# [optional] full path to the configuration file of your choice;
#            otherwise, the default location (in $USER's home
#            directory) is used:
#CONFIG=

# [optional] hostname/ip and port number to listen on:
HOST=0.0.0.0
PORT=8089

# [optional] extra command line options, if any:
#EXTRAOPTS=

init.d script is vanilla.

Running sudo sh -x /etc/init.d/sabnzbdplus start fails:

If anybody can help, that'd be terrific, as I do not know what possibly is wrong.

Thanks and BR

What I have done yesterday, I removed the package, removed the scripts and re-installed it. So no above, just the installed package.
I actually re-installed it now, but cannot get it to create the init.d scripts. Tried using https://gist.github.com/joshenders/4181257, but they won't start.

I'm starting to think about installing from source.

OK, I fixed it. I basically just purged it, restarted and re-installed it:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get purge sabnzbdplus
sudo shutdown -r now
sudo apt-get install sabnzbdplus

So far so good, hope that's all.

Thank you a thousand times for your help!

All the best!

So it works when you start it as user xbmc from the command line. Correct?

What is the output of

Code: Select all

sudo service sabnzbdplus restart

I cannot help you if you get scripts from other sources. I only know plain SABnzbd

You were too fast. I edited the last post saying that I fixed it by purging+reinstalling.

See above.
