not sure if this a sickbeard issue or a sab. but randomly my post processing fails with a
Unable to figure out what folder to process. If your downloader and Sick Beard aren't on the same PC make sure you fill out your TV download dir in the config.


now it only sometimes does this, so ill occassionly be left with a handful of _unpack_folders in my completed dir. it works if i manually run post processing.

my setup is. windows 7 x64.
sab and sickbeard are on the same pc.
sab downloads to c: incomplete then moves the completed to g:\download. after the post processing it moves to g:\tv\show name.

any idea?

What does SABnzbd's download repair say about such failed downloads?

In this example, SABnzbd completed all of its work successfully.
The last part comes from the SickBeard script.
It tells you that SickBeard cannot find the resulting files.
This means that you did not configure SickBeard properly or that you're using SABnzbd's Sort option.
Combining SABnzbd's Sort and SickBeard is not recommend because
SickBeard can move files on its own.

mm not using the sort option. and i dont know why it will work 9 times out of 10 and. i guess ill ask the sb guys. thanks
