Just upgraded from 3.7.1 to 4.2.1 [18f4cc2]. Using Mint LMDE 6 (debian 12).
Python 3.11.2 (main, Mar 13 2023, 12:18:29)
Start up with "/opt/SABnzbd-4.2.1/SABnzbd.py" "--disable-file-log" "--logging" "1" "--browser" "0"

When I first tried to run python3 was externally managed so I was using "apt-get install python3-xxxx"

Sabctools installed python3-sabctools_7.1.2-1~bpo12+1_amd64.deb. Found out I needed 8.1 but apt did not have it. Remove EXTERNALLY_MANAGED and used "pip install". Went through the requirements.txt and everything is up to date now.

No errors show up in the logs. When I attempt to test a server I get the errors: "module 'sabctools' has no attribute 'bytearray_malloc'".

Have no idea what this means especially since I m running the current version. Everything looks fine, the queue has items and will not download nything.

Please Help!

This is the log file with the debug option - nothing but what my settings are at https://pastes.io/oepqrqnobr

How good are you with Debian?

Decent. Been playing around with it for years.

OK. I'm asking because python module can be difficult. Plus you have other errors in your sabnzbd.log ... not good.

"module 'sabctools' has no attribute 'bytearray_malloc'".

My guess: you still have an old sabctools which does not have that function.

So ... do the below on your debian and post the output here.

Code: Select all

$ python3
Python 3.10.12 (main, Nov 20 2023, 15:14:05) [GCC 11.4.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sabctools

>>> sabctools.__path__
['/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/sabctools']

>>> sabctools.__version__
'8.1.0'

>>> sabctools.bytearray_malloc(0)
bytearray(b'')

Sander,

Thank you! I did remove sbctools using apt AFTER installing the newer version using pip then I reinstalled the new one using pip again. That did not fix it, but I started tinkering with par2cmdline-turbo, dowloaded it removed the previous par2 version then built and installed. Great! That did it. Probably both affected each other somehow, It's seems to be running completly and is now even downloading.
