This has been going on for a long time, and normally I just login and kill the process, but it's persisted through several versions os sabnzbd+ and OS X (current versions on both).

Basically, the unrar process just gets stuck and when I ssh in to the machine, I see this:

Code: Select all

 $ psa sab
syth          86377  12.1  2.2  1044492 182564   ??  S    Sun06AM 396:43.24 /Users/syth/Applications/SABnzbd.app/Contents/MacOS/SABnzbd

After I `kill 19733`, unraring resumes:

This happens, on average, 2-3 times a week.

The psa output suggests there two instances of SABnzbd running, odd.
What can you see in the logging?
Does the launch time of unrar correspond with the start time of the second process?
Possibly something goes wrong in the spawning of SABnzbd that's likely use
to start unrar. It suggests an issue in the Python libraries.

The second process is what is left after unnar gets stuck. It shows up in the GUI as if is still processing. Unless there are some other logs other than the web GUI shows, there's nothing logged.

Oh, wait, i see now I can download a more complete log. Nothing interesting in there looking for warnings or errors, but I'll check it next time it's stuck.
