|
|
- To prevent unexpectedly large NZBs from eating your download quota you can set
|
|
the option 'size_limit' on the Config->Special page.
|
|
Any NZB larger than this size will be set to paused and get a low priority.
|
|
|
|
- When par2 or unrar hang up, never just stop SABnzbd.
|
|
Instead use your operating system's task manager to stop the par2 or unrar program.
|
|
Forcing SABnzbd to quit may damage your queues.
|
|
Windows-only:
|
|
If you keep having trouble with par2 multicore you can disable it
|
|
in Config->Switches.
|
|
This will force the use of the old and tried, but slower par2cmdline program.
|
|
|
|
- A bug in Windows 7 may cause severe memory leaks when you use SABnzbd in
|
|
combination with some virus scanners and firewalls.
|
|
Install this hotfix:

|
- Some Usenet servers have intermittent login (or other) problems.
|
|
For these the server blocking method is not very favourable.
|
|
There is an INI-only option that will limit blocks to 1 minute.

|
|
|
|
- Some third-party utilties try to probe SABnzbd API in such a way that you will
|
|
often see warnings about unauthenticated access.
|
|
If you are sure these probes are harmless, you can suppress the warnings by
|
|
setting the option "api_warnings" to 0.

|
|
|
- On OSX you may encounter downloaded files with foreign characters.
|
|
The par2 repair may fail when the files were created on a Windows system.
|
|
The problem is caused by the PAR2 utility and we cannot fix this now.
|
|
This does not apply to files inside RAR files.
|
|
|
|
- On Linux when you download files they may have the wrong character encoding.
|
|
You will see this only when downloaded files contain accented characters.
|
|
You need to fix it yourself by running the convmv utility (available for most Linux platforms).
|
|
Possible the file system override setting 'fsys_type' might be solve things:
|
|

|
|
|
|
- The "Watched Folder" sometimes fails to delete the NZB files it has
|
|
processed. This happens when other software still accesses these files.
|
|
Some third-party utilities supporting SABnzbd are known to do this.
|
|
We cannot solve this problem, because the Operating System (read Windows)
|
|
prevents the removal.
|
|
|
|
- Memory usage can sometimes have high peaks. This makes using SABnzbd on very low
|
|
memory systems (e.g. a NAS device or a router) a challenge.
|
|
|
|
- SABnzbd is not compatible with some software firewall versions.
|
|
The Microsoft Windows Firewall works fine, but remember to tell this
|
|
firewall that SABnzbd is allowed to talk to other computers.
|
|
|
|
- When SABnzbd cannot send notification emails, check your virus scanner,
|
|
firewall or security suite. It may be blocking outgoing email.
|
|
|
|
- When you are using external drives or network shares on OSX or Linux
|
|
make sure that the drives are mounted.
|
|
The operating system will simply redirect your files to alternative locations.
|
|
You may have trouble finding the files when mounting the drive later.
|
|
On OSX, SABnzbd will not create new folders in /Volumes.
|
|
The result will be a failed job that can be retried once the volume has been mounted.
|
|
|
|
- If you use a mounted drive as "temporary download folder", it must be present when SABnzbd
|
|
starts up. If not, SABnzbd will use the default location.
|
|
You can make SABnzbd wait for a mount of the "temporary download folder" by setting
|
|
Config->Special->wait_for_dfolder to 1.
|
|
SABnzbd will appear to hang until the drive is mounted.
|
|
|
|
- On some operating systems it looks like there is a problem with one of the standard Python libraries.
|
|
It is possible that you get errors about saving admin files and even unexplained crashes.
|
|
If so, you can enable the option for the alternative library.
|
|
It has the same functionality, but is slower.
|
|
We've had reports about this issue on non-mainstream Linux platforms.
|
|
- OpenElec
|
|
- Squeeze Linux
|
|
There is a "special" option that will allow you to select an alternative library.
