Fails to start, even after purge and reinstall (Ubuntu)

Hi everyone,
After my HDD got full it would appear that my config got wiped (the 2 times my config has been wiped my HDD was very close to full (99%+), so I'm assuming it's that). I managed to fix it the first time but I'm unsure how.
I have tried running
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get remove --purge sabnzbdplus
and then renaming ~/.sabnzbd, restarting the system and then running
editing the config file (/etc/defaults/sabnzbd? The one it asks me to edit anyway) with the user to run as (joseph). However, when I run
it fails with:
I have checked ~/.sabnzbd for a logs directory and there isn't one. I'm not sure where else to check for logs, if there is anywhere else?
I've exhausted all the things that I can think of, so does anyone have any ideas of what my next move could be?
Thanks,
Joseph Duffy

What if you type "sabnzbdplus" on the command line?

Ok, I'm now getting
I'm guessing I should try and fix that. Should I make a logs directory somewhere or something?
Thanks for the reply

The /dev/sda5 has been a lot emptier before and is what currently has SAB on it. I get the same errors when the drive is not full, but that seems to be the trigger for breaking the install?

SAB puts it's config and log into ~/.sabnzbd/, which is on your / which is on /dev/sda5, which is ... full.
So solve that first.

I cleared a bit of room and ran sudo sabnzbdplus, which gave me the install screen. After installing it worked correctly, but I still get an error when starting it as a service. Nothing in ~/.sabnzbd/logs/sabnzbd.log (other than the information that shows when I run it as sudo sabnzbdplus, not as a service). Any other places I could find some logs?

Do no use "sudo sabnzbdplus" but "sabnzbdplus"; run it as the normal user
