is the queue stored in a file?

Post by nonparity »

I have an odd problem and can't seem to find a post about this anywhere.

The computer I was running sabnzb on died. The hard drive is fine and I have mounted it in order to access other files on it. The only thing I can't figure out is if the queue is in a file or db or any other way I could access it to import it on my new system. I know this must be an odd request but I just added a bunch to the queue and don't recall what all is in it.

Yes, it's stored in a file in the Admin directory.
But you also need the whole Incomplete folder, since seperate jobs are stored there. Only together they can make a queue.

You can recover the queue from the Incomplete folder by clicking on the wrench and look for orphaned jobs, though. The queue file is useless alone.
