SABnzbd Forums

Hi all,
First of all, just want to say SABnzbd is probably the best NZB client Ive used. It is just awesome

I recently installed it (0.6.6) on FreeNAS 7 (FreeBSD derivative), and after a couple of failed attempts I eventually got it up and running. It is working quite well, however the ability to connect to my UseNet server over SSL is unavailable. The option is grayed out and unselectable. In the startup log I get the following line,
INFO::[SABnzbd:491] pyOpenSSL... NOT found - try apt-get install python-pyopenssl (SSL is optional)

The research I have done has suggested to install the python SSL packages (using pkg_add), which I have done. All my packages are posted below.

Given I have the SSL package already, I am thinking that either my SABnzbd startup script doesnt recognise the SSL package, or my Python isnt.

Any suggestions on how to fix this, or what information to gather to fully debug this?

Cheers!

Open an terminal session,
Start Python and type: If that gives an error message, then something is wrong with your installation.

Thanks for the reply mate, here is the output of what I did, as you can see It accepted the line with no error, but also didnt do anything...

[root@freenas ~]# python
Python 2.6.4 (r264:75706, Feb 17 2010, 10:45:15)

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from OpenSSL import SSL

Odd. What about this mini program?
What's the result?

Thanks again mate. I ran the code and this is the output.

[root@freenas /mnt/DATA/Tom]# python test.py
<module 'OpenSSL.SSL' from '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/OpenSSL/SSL.so'> True

Could it be possible that Im not using the python located in /usr/local/lib, and if so how would I point to that one?

Find out which python binary you need and start SABnzbd using:
/path/to/python /my/path/SABnzbd.py
SABnzbd,.py itself is hard-coded to use /usr/bin/python

I think I have sorted the issue in 2 ways...
Firstly looks like I needed to use this python - /usr/local/bin/python2.6
Additionally, the start up script I was using, taken from here https://sourceforge.net/apps/phpbb/free ... 80ddcaaaf7 , needed to be changed
From - PYTHONPATH="/mnt/DATA/downloader/installers/lib/python2.7/site-packages" /usr/local/bin/python2.6 /mnt/DATA/downloader/installers/SABnzbd/SABnzbd.py -d -f /mnt/DATA/downloader/installers/sabconfig/sabnzbd.ini -s 0.0.0.0:8085

To - /usr/local/bin/python2.6 /mnt/DATA/downloader/installers/SABnzbd/SABnzbd.py -d -f /mnt/DATA/downloader/installers/sabconfig/sabnzbd.ini -s 0.0.0.0:8085

Thank you very much for you guidance on this Shypike. Really appreciate it!

Happy to hear it works.

I am having a similar problem to the OP. SABnzbd+ is running fine, but I am unable to use the SSL option. Installed packages:

openssl-1.0.0_6
par2cmdline-0.4_4
pkg-config-0.25_1
py27-chardet-2.0.1
py27-cheetah-2.4.4
py27-feedparser-5.0.1
py27-markdown-2.0.3_1
py27-openssl-0.13
py27-setuptools-0.6c11_1
py27-sqlite3-2.7.2_1
py27-utils-0.4.0
py27-yenc-0.3
python27-2.7.2_3
sabnzbdplus-0.6.10
sqlite3-3.7.9
unrar-4.00,5
unzip-6.0_1

py27-openssl seemed to install properly; however, when I try to import OpenSSL, I get the following:
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Did you google "ImportError: /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/OpenSSL/SSL.so: Undefined symbol "SSL_get_servername"? It's a bug in "net-im/papyon", which I don't know, but certainly is not SABnzbd related. So probably better to seek help in the forums where it's reported, like https://www.freshports.org/net-im/papyon/Makefile
