After upgrading to 3.7.2 , the SABnzbd service installation fails.

I'm using a custom config on Windows.

I needed to tweak the error output below _py = .py because of link detection [new user] $:-\$

Code: Select all

 
 C:\SABnzbd\SABnzbd-console.exe  -f "C:\CustomConfig\sabnzbd.ini" update
 Changing service configuration

Seems to be a bug in a dependency we use. Too bad!

Actually I cannot reproduce this? At least with my default install of SABnzbd in C:\Program Files\SABnzbd, it works as expected:

Code: Select all

C:\Program Files\SABnzbd>SABnzbd-console.exe -f "%localappdata%\sabnzbd\sabnzbd.ini" install
Installing service SABnzbd
Service installed

You may need to set additional Service parameters!
Verify the settings in Windows Services (services.msc).

Code: Select all

C:\Program Files\SABnzbd>SABnzbd-console.exe -f "%localappdata%\sabnzbd\sabnzbd.ini" update
Changing service configuration
Service updated
