Thanks in advance Link to comment
sacretagent Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 cd to wherever you have current version folder wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/sabnzbdplus/sabnzbdplus/sabnzbd-0.6.5/SABnzbd-0.6.5-src.tar.gz?r=http%3A%2F%2Fsabnzbd.org%2Fdownload%2F&ts=1309061566&use_mirror=cdnetworks-kr-1 tar -zxvf SABnzbd-0.6.5-src.tar copy your current sabnzbd.ini into this new SABnzbd-0.6.5-src folder if you still have a queue copy also the current cache folder in this new SABnzbd-0.6.5-src folder stop your current sab adapt your go script with the new path for sab 065 adapt any start buttons you might have with the new path reboot server or push start button or start manually whatever you are comfortable with should have new sab running if you are happy with new version you can delete the old versions folder Link to comment
neilt0 Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 Or just drop the new version in to your existing folder. Hell of a lot easier. Back up your original .sabnzbd folder first, just in case. Link to comment
mikefallen Posted June 26, 2011 Author Share Posted June 26, 2011 works perfect thanks guys Link to comment
aneelley Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Can someone post a step by step procedure for this with path's and what files to download (source etc.)? I would like to upgrade my sabnzbd as well and I don't want to cause issues with an already working system. Also, I am a bit confused as to what the difference is from sabnzbd and sabnzbdplus (http://sourceforge.net/projects/sabnzbdplus/?source=directory). Link to comment

Just use the plugin from the Plugin Designs section of the forum and point the data directory to your current install. Link to comment

As far as I know, when people say 'sabnzdb', they are referring to 'sabnzbdplus'. Understandably a bit confusing . The link in the above quote is the correct app . PS: +1 Just use the plugin from the Plugin Designs section of the forum Link to comment
aneelley Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 This is the original: http://sabnzbd.org i am wondering if the plus is a fork or something. Link to comment
aneelley Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Well, if you want something done, sometimes you have to do it yourself. That being said, I am going to list my simple upgrade process: 1 - Go here and get the plugin: https://github.com/Influencer/UNplugged/blob/master/sabnzbd_unplugged.plg The article about it is here: http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=21260.0 2 - After you have the plugin, put it in your /boot/config/plugins directory. 3 - Run the plugin: /boot/config/plugins/sabnzbd_unplugged.plg 4 - Tell the rc script to update sabnzbdplus: /etc/rc.d/rc.sabnzbd update You will see the following: Stopping SABnzbd... ... OK Installing latest version of SABnzbd... ... OK Starting SABnzbd: sudo -u nobody python -OO /mnt/user/plugin_data/sabnzbd/SABnzbd.py -d -s 0.0.0.0:8081 --config-file /mnt/user/plugin_data/sabnzbd --pid /var/run/sabnzbd/ > /dev/null 2>&1 You can then go and verify you have the new version by clicking the help icon in the upper right of the webgui.

If you roll over the download links, you'll see they are linking to the 'plus' app.... Perhaps the devs just decided to simplify the name because that's what people call it... Link to comment

It was more of a code resurrection as the original developer completely disappeared, so it's really the only game in town. Link to comment
