[v1.0.0] False authentication errors (too many conn)
Posted: March 22nd, 2016, 4:45 pm
Minor bug report:
Previous version of sabnzbd would correctly report "too many connections to server". In v1.0.0 it appears that the same error is now citing "authentication error". This occurs in queue and in server management when testing connections during server connection saturation. The risk here is that a user may repeatedly attempt to solve the issue of the username/password when it is, in fact, not the cause.
Expected result: when oversaturating a usenet server with connetions, sabnzbd should report "error connecting to [affected servers]: too many connections".
Actual result: when oversaturating a usenet server with connections, sabnzbd reports cannot connect to server [affected servers] [Authentication failed, check username/password.
My setup:
Astraweb, three servers, 20 connections total split to all three. (10 on one, 5 on the other two). Occasionally sabnzbd will attempt to oversaturate on missing articles. Happens often but reported a different error on 0.7 and previous.
