not unpacking

Post by meanher »

Hi all,
I am using latest version of SABnzbd, running on Windows 11 on new computer, ( old computer died). Have re-installed everything, SANnzbd downloads the episode, puts it in my folder for TV shows but not in the specific show folder or season folder, also doesn't unpack and convert into a watchable episode. It stays as numerous R0 files and PAR files etc. Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated.

In SABnzbd's upper right corner, click on the wrench symbol ("Status and interface options"), then click on first tab Status, click Test download 1GB.

Is it unpacked?

That is weird.

And you're using the Windows version of SABnzbd? With the unar and par2 executables inside it?

Normal directories?

If you download / get sabnzbd.log, what do the lines with "unrar" in it say?

How do I check which version I am using, I would have thought it was the windows version. Even though I have been using for a few years now, not fully smart with the terminology.

In SABnzbd's upper right corner, click on the wrench symbol ("Status and interface options"), then click on first tab Status, click Show Logging (left bottom corner). That will download sabnzbd.log. Inspect that for lines with "unrar".

Wow, that was a bit of searching, this the only unrar I could find.
enable_unrar = 1
enable_unzip = 1
enable_7zip = 1
enable_filejoin = 1
enable_tsjoin = 1
overwrite_files = 0
ignore_unrar_dates = 0
Hope this means something to you.

That is not the info to look for.

You should find something like below

Good evening!

So there is an unrar, but it is never used.

Let's check this: Click "Add NZB", then you get a big menu. What does it say at "Post processing"? Set it to "+Delete", and add an NZB ... what is the result?
