Cannot access web interface
Posted: September 8th, 2017, 10:38 am
I am using Ubuntu 16.04 (headless, minimal install, NO iptables) and am doing everything from an ssh client on another computer in the same local network (192.168.0.0/24)
Ubuntu Server: 192.168.0.250
Local workstation: 192.168.0.2
For reference, I used this guide: www dot linuxbabe dot com slash ubuntu slash install-sabnzbd-ubuntu-16-04 (I had to remove most of the URL because I am a new user)
When I get to the portion of the guide where we manually start sabnzbd for the first time, I use the following:
sabnzbdplus -d -s 192.168.0.250:8080 --browser 0
This is so I can access the web interface on the workstation. This works great, and I can complete the wizard. I verify the configuration on the web inteface says host is 192.168.0.250 and port says 8080.
The issue arises after creating the sabnzbd user and adding the daemon, and starting the service or restarting the OS. For whatever reason, I am no longer able to access the web interface from the local workstation. The only time I can get the web interface is if I use " sabnzbdplus -d -s 192.168.0.250:8080 --browser 0"
~/.sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini - I have tried setting the host to both 192.168.0.250 as well as 0.0.0.0, restarting the service, and this did not help.
/etc/default/sabnzbdplus - I have tried setting the host to 0.0.0.0 and 192.168.0.250, restarting the service, and this did not help either.
I suspect the issue in the guide is the section where we edit the /etc/systemd/system/sabnzbd.service file... the guide says to use the following command to start sabnzbd:
ExecStart=/usr/bin/python -OO /usr/bin/sabnzbdplus --browser 0 &
I see nothing in this execution that specifies the host IP. Even still, I left it alone, and ensured the config file said 0.0.0.0 or 192.168.0.250. (neither worked)
Netstat does not show anything listening on 192.168.0.250:8080 when I start the service (only shows this entry when I run the daemon manually with that above command)
Any ideas? I am at a loss.
Thank you!
