FISHMANPET posted:I ran out of hard drive space on my laptop, so when a download failed missing one piece, it couldn't do anything about trying to recover or whatever, because it was out of space. Before I created some free space, I clicked retry on the download, and it dissapeared from sabnzbd. I've still got all the files, but extracting them fails because of the missing piece. If you're on Windows download QuickPar http://www.quickpar.org.uk/ and double click on the .par2 file. After it is finished checking the file it will tell you how many blocks are missing or if it is possible to repair with what you have. If there's not enough blocks to repair you can manually download the par2 files you need:
This is also really useful if the file has been posted multiple times. Using QuickPar you can see which .rar file is most corrupted and replace the corrupt .rar files with the same file from the re-posted download and then use QuickPar to stitch everything together. I've mixed and matched .rar files and .par files from multiple postings and managed to salvage a download, that's probably only useful if you have a download limit like I do or can't find a non-corrupt version.

First I tried it with par2cmdline, since my main downloading machine is Unix. It went through the files, told me I had 0 recovery blocks, then found 3 rars that were missing blocks. When I load it into Quickpar on my Windows machine it detects the recovery files but it doesn't detect any data files. Not sure what's going on... E: I've got this exact situation: http://xpt.sourceforge.net/techdocs/nix/archive/arch06-Par/ar01s02.html Comments on the posting say it's bad, welp.

You can usually tell which parts need repairing by the differing filesizes. Most of the files should be the same size, but will be smaller if they are missing parts.

It looks like I've gotten myself all straightened out. I was downloading these on a laptop at a friend's house who has Comcast business (no cap) but I only put in my primary provider, not my backup provider. I finally re downloaded the 3 bad rars on my main server, that does have my backup providers configured. It grabbed the missing articles from the backup providers, and now those files are complete, and it extracts. The par2 was indeed incorrectly made, but it didn't seem to matter.

So this weekend I setup SAB, SB, CP, and Quoch on my father-in-law's WHSv1 box. Everything was working well, even from outside the network. This morning, I notice Windows did some updates and I remember I never configured his server to automatically login so various things would start up. I RDC in and find a bunch of problems: - Sickbeard requested a password, where there was none. I looked into the config file and it looks like it took a password from somewhere else; the username was something he uses but the password looked way off. I removed the entry from the config file and restarted, and everything looked normal in SB. It's alpha build 495, if that means anything. I suppose I should set him to run from source but I was feeling lazy at the time... - SAB won't open, either locally or remotely. I took the /sabnzbd off the address and discovered that another service was apparently trying to use that port, so I disabled that and confirmed that nothing is using it, then restarted SAB. Still nothing, locally or remotely. The log file tells me that the interface is starting up on 192.168.0.5:9005, but I can't access that either. Originally it was configured for 9000, but I'm guessing that when it found a conflict, it changed it automatically? I had to kill it, manually edit the config file to use port 9000, and then restart. Everything is back to normal!  Has anyone seen that issue with SB before? And is there an option to have SAB just not start when a port conflict is discovered?

could be because of the beta site and things going on behind the scenes? I pointed mine to the beta site instead and have had no issues. I believe your API key is different for the beta site, so double check your prefs. beta.nzbs.org if you don't know what i'm talking about

I don't know if you can now use it on iiNet by virtue of the merger/takeover/whatever, but if it's no longer advertised on Internode you wouldn't see it on iiNet's stuff, either.

iinet is poo poo and their network wouldn't be able to handle it. I haven't checked but I doubt the Node usenet servers have made it into the freezone.

So is there a consensus as to which app is best for getting Usenet binaries on Android devices? I know it's been asked by I can't search on my phone. I'm using NZBleech and it works okay but I'm maxing out at 400 K/sec. Is it the program or is that the phone? The connection is not 20 ?eg and speedster shows my phone does that easily.

Technically SAB should be usable on an Android device, as Python is available for the platform. That said, I can't imagine there's much of an interest in downloading directly on a phone so the selection is likely to be very limited with few people having ever used them. The majority of us just download to a PC and copy anything that may need to get to the Android device over by USB or some a network file transfer protocol of choice. That said, aside from the repair portion of the process (where x86 has a big advantage due to the excellently optimized par2 binaries available) nothing involved in usenet itself should be demanding enough to be stressful on a phone. My best guess is that the flash you're writing to is maxing out. 400K/sec no matter how interpreted (bits or bytes) is slower than even Class 2 SD cards, but there have been plenty of lovely cards released in the market with no class spec or false class specs. Try a HTTP download from a fast server and see how it runs. If you significantly exceed the Usenet speed, there's a problem with your Usenet client. If not, your phone or your flash is the limiting factor. This is all of course assuming that a PC on the same network would get the speeds you're expecting and that it's not an ISP limit or a lovely Usenet host.

Last time I used Usenet was back in '05 with Newzbin, some NZB program I can't even remember and Quickpar. Looks like things have changed a bit, but I'd like to get back into it. At the moment I use a seedbox, and download from there to my WHSv1 box. I'll get rid of the seedbox when moving to Usenet, but I'm a little unsure of how to access SAbnzd over the network. Can I just use the web interface on my regular PC to connect to SABnzbd sitting on the WHS box and upload nzbs to it (or send via nzbdstatus)? Or do I have to RDP in?

SABnzbd is only controlled via the web interface, so you'd put something like this in the address bar of the web browser on your regular PC: http://server_ip_address:8000. Be sure to look into Sickbeard and Couchpotato.

It struggled to find a lot of my obscure stuff within retention and I've never been able to get torrents working properly with it (refuses to post process completed downloads properly).

I know we can't discuss usenet specifics but I am wondering if there are any free indexers that work well enough not to necessitate paying for one. I used to use newzbin and nzbs.org but unfortunately if I ever had an account with the latter I can't find any e-mails about it.

What's the best way to install SAB/Sickbeard/CP/Headphones onto FreeNAS? I tried using FreeNAS 8, and couldn't manage to get Cheetah working through SSH/Mac Terminal. Then I tried FreeNAS 0.7, and I had other Terminal troubles. I keep seeing posts online about installing packages through the web GUI, but I think that feature has been taken out for 0.7 and 8.

Has anyone seen a weird thing where sickbeard doesn't start properly after a reboot in Ubuntu? I have my init.d scripts properly configured, and the sickbeard runs, but it doesn't load the proper configuration - all my shows are missing and all my settings are gone. However, if I then go and manually do a 'sudo /etc/init.d/sickbeard restart' it reloads sickbeard with the proper configuration and everything is fine. I'm running it in xbmcbuntu but I don't thinkt that should make a difference. edit: I also tried moving the sickbeard script to run at S99 instead of the default 20, since I though it might be trying to load before some required service, but that didn't fix it either. astr0man fucked around with this message at 15:26 on May 14, 2012 |

I posted this on the SABnzbd forums but they're hit or miss. Here's the problem: I was messing around with various skins in SABnzbd before finally returning to the "default". I chose "restart SABnzbd" and got this screen:  Now, whenever I load it that screen comes up. I can't seem to find any skin specific values in the ini files and SAFE MODE yields the same result. Any ideas how to fix this while preserving my SAB configuration (server settings, categories, etc)? EDIT: The fix was in sabnzbd.ini. There are two values that control the skins "web_dir" & "web_dir2"; which I changed to "Plush" and "Classic" respectively. Druuge Fuel fucked around with this message at 21:24 on May 15, 2012 |
