Unpacking failed notification, but its unpacked..

Post by flintpaper »

Hello community,

despite of each successful download SABnzbd+ is notifying me with "Unpacking failed, archive needs a password". But actually, the file is unpacked, did not require a password and is executable. How to fix this annoying convenience?

I'm on Ubuntu 12.10 and writing files on a NTFS partition with all required permissions.

I have found an option in SABnzbd+ to set permissions for completed downloads. Is it required to set any?

Sincerely,
Flint Paper

For some reason unrar is telling SABnzbd that unpacking was not successful.
Possibly caused by the NTFS drive.
Try unpacking rar files manually from that drive and check what the console output of,unrar is.
