SABnzbd Forums

I have a brand new Ubuntu 16.04 LTS server install. I have done the update and upgrade for the server and then installed sabnzbdplus package. Everything looks like it installs correctly and I can start sabnzbdplus. Since this is a headless server so there is no browser on it locally. I can ssh to the server from another PC so I know the connectivity is there but when I try http://ServerIP:8080/sabnzbd I don't get anything. I see a tomcat process so I'm assuming it was installed with sabnzbdplus. I tried this on a clean 14.04 LTS server and had the same results.

Is there some other step that needs to be done to get the web page going?

By default, sab can only be reached from localhost on port 8080. To override you can set the listening host (and port if need be) via command line parameters, see wiki. If you use the init.d script to run sab as a system service, the host and port settings in the service configuration (/etc/default/sabnzbdplus) have the same effect.

Any "tomcat" process is unrelated to sab.
