Newsbin 6.91 B7 Beta - build 5731

[Mick.1965]

Does the NZB contain the password?

In the filename or the meta data?

"nzbfilename{{password}}.nzb"

Is often how they're formatted.

I assume in the metadata as I get it by opening the nzb in a text editor and finding <meta type="password">*************</meta>

Let me try some testing then. Thanks.

Weird issue that started the other day.
I don't even know how to explain the issue I am having...
Right now I've got Sonarr or Radarr pulling down nzb files to a watch directory, and newsbin is picking them up to download. They're added to the download list and begin downloading. They download and then move to the decoding phase, but it just gets to [Decode] 0% Completed and sits there. The file is, however, in the directory. But it never gets past this so never moves on to any of the other files in the list.
I'm sure it's something simple, but I don't know what I could be missing...


EDIT: So.... I figured it out later that day, but couldn't find a way to edit or remove this post.
Turns out, in editing the file locations I had left off a trailing backslash. Not sure why that would have caused such a huge issue, but at least I figured it out.

Quade,

Beta7 has blown up on me (it exits) twice in the last month while downloading newsgroup content. I manually click on some large groups to download new content . Here's a snippet from the log. As far as I can tell the .db3 files don't get corrupted, as I can restart and continue to use newsbin w/o any problem.

Unrelated, but as a reminder, when manually updating/clicking on groups, I always have to do this twice, as the first time doesn't show any new items. When clicking on the group a second time one gets the new items displayed.

As always, thanks for the great work. Chris.

That's not really how it's intended to work. I'm kind of surprised it works to be honest. Instead the intent was to add a downloader in the download clients section of Sonarr (Newbin pretends to be SAB so use SABNZb). Then in the remote NZB options in Newsbin, you set the port and just the APIKey. Make sure the same API key is in sonarr.

Then the NZB's get fed directly to Newsbin over a connection and Sonarr can monitor the downloads.

So about your issue, you don't see any error in the logging tab in Newsbin? You could send some of the problem NZB's to "ts @ newsbin.com" and I could try downloading them.

This sounds like an unrar problem and not a sonarr problem.
I wouldn't change your setup at this point. It'll just add more potential issue.
If I can try the NZB's I might be able to tell you something.

This suggests you need to delete "DownloadMarker.db3" and let Newsbin regenerate the file. If you "Open Data Folder" from the options, exit Newsbin, you can find the file and delete it.

I'm fairly close to a new beta. Someone reported NZB's with the password in the meta-data aren't being processed correctly. I need to test that first before I put another one up.
