SABnzbd+ SickBeard CouchPotato Plugin/Installer for v5b11+

Just what the log says. Check you SickBeard configurations for providers. Do you have any other than NZBMatrix?

Nope, NZBMatrix is all I use. I've set it up exactly like I had on my old QNAP nas. Put in my username and API key.

You probably need to go to the SB forums then.

Hi All,

 

Finally got my setup working quite well however I've tried to update some of the shows. I keep getting these errors

I've got the same issue, there is a large thread in the Sickbeard support forum about this problem. The temporary fix is to restart sick beard however this only works for a few hours/one day. You can restart sick beard by clicking the top left icon and selecting restart from the drop down menu, hope this helps.

I've tried to install this plugin but has met some resisante... It would be usefull if the plg-script logged to syslog (maybe as well as echo). I used the following method in the sh-files in another plg script (slimserver) which I found useful for logging info about what the script is doing.

 

log() {

echo $*;

logger -t`basename $0` $*

}

 

It would be quite useful for me in debugging the issues if the sabnzbd plugin had the same.

 

My problem is that the webgui just say loading when I say please enable, and sabnzbd never starts. Hmm.. the 'hanging' is because sabnzbd does infinite loops waiting for start/stop, and it didn't start for me. Is this really necessary, why would we wanna loop forever here?

 

The problem I had, was that the data folder was not created. I have fixed the issues in a script I have. Should I upload that script here, or PM someone, or just keep it for myself?

You can PM Benni Chan and either offer to send him the modified plug-in, or post on here what changes you made and post a link to the modified plug-in.

I just can't get Sab to start after rebooting my server. Sits there for ever like many in this thread.

 

I've attached a pic of my config. I've configured Sickbeard and Couch the same way and they start fine.

Try to find the log for sabnzbd, it should be in the data directory, hopefully there will be something in the log. Also post a syslog for after the reboot.

Do you need a cache drive for sab sick and couch to work if you install them this way?

You don't need a cache drive but if you do not use one you should change the data directory to a location on your array. Only downside is the disk it resides on will never spin down, atleast very rarily. A workaround to this is after you get the apps up and running change the log location to /var/log/applog or something to have the apps write logs to ram instead of to the array.

Here you go.

Your log shows that sabnzbd starts. When it "hangs" have you tried to access sabnzbd?

Thanks. I never actually tried it until just now as the unRAID menu just sits there for ages and never finishes loading unless I hit F5. But it does appear I can connect. Same happens with Sickbeard.

now if you go back to the plug-in setup page, does it say that sabnzbd is running?

 

Guess it doesn't really matter if it says it is, as long as its running.

Any chance we can get a beta version for sabnzbd 0.7.B2? Looks like it was released not too long ago and has some awesome new features.

 

http://sourceforge.net/projects/sabnzbdplus/files/sabnzbdplus-beta/0.7.0Beta2/

 

You can modify the plg file to download the beta instead of the stable version.

 

On line 214 change

stable=($(wget -q -O - http://sabnzbdplus.sourceforge.net/version/latest | awk '/0/{gsub(/\015/,"");print}'))

##Change to:
        stable=($(wget -q -O - http://sabnzbdplus.sourceforge.net/version/latest | awk '/2/{gsub(/\015/,"");print}'))

 

And on 222 change:

	

wget -q http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/sabnzbdplus/sabnzbdplus/sabnzbd-${stable}/SABnzbd-${stable}-src.tar.gz

to:

        wget -q http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/sabnzbdplus/sabnzbdplus-beta/${stable}/SABnzbd-${stable}-src.tar.gz
       

 

 

On line 232 make the same modification as you did on line 222.

 

I don't believe this would overwrite any configurations you currently have with sab but I haven't tested it so I'm not sure. Back up your unmodified plg and make a copy of your data folder just in case.

 

BUT IT WILL OVERWRITE YOUR CURRENT SABNZBD INSTALLATION. Meaning you will no longer have access to 0.6.15. To modify the plg to have a completely separate installation it requires you to change every reference to sabnzbd to a different name. I've done this on my setup but it is even dirtier than the modification I posted. I only did it to make sure the URL's were right.

 

When a new stable version comes out you will have to revert to the unmodified plg to download it, but if a new beta comes out, you will be able to update like normal.

 

This is a quick and dirty way of achieving your goal, if I have time I'll try and modify the plg to allow you to choose whether to download a beta or stable version.

 

 

I don't actually understand how to install these packages. It says I have to copy the download to my config/plugins folder on my flash drive, but there is no plugin folder in my config directory. When I try download one of the packages I just geta web page full of text commands. What exactly am I supposed to do?

Right-Click on the download link and save it to your computer

You may have to create the config/plugins folder

So I am very interested in this post. I was wondering if the links and directions in the original post are all still current even though the last edit was from quite a while ago. If not, is there anything in particular i need to know, or can I just follow the directions in the original post? Thanks!

Edit : I also noticed that when I right click and "Save Link As" to grab the files, they appear as .txt files on my desktop. Is this normal?

if they appear as txt just rename the extension to PLG, and yes, the instructions are still good. The beauty of these plug-ins is that they pull directly from the latest release so you'll be up to date.

Is it ok to have the data directory as /mnt/disk1/sickbeard and  /mnt/disk1/couchpotato etc. Also what port should I run sabnzbd as so it doesnt interfere with unraid menu ( 8080 )

Its fine but the disk will probably never spindown, or will atleast stay spun-up more often unless you move the log file to a location in ram. Sabnzbd isn't as bad, but couchpotato writes a lot to log.

I can make the log destination in the actual program web guis yeh? What should I set the file to?

 

Is there a better place to mount the data directories? As long as i dont have to reset the configurations every time I reset Im not bothered where they go.

 

Would it be ok to set data and logs to the flash?

if you aren't using cache then the array is the best place for the data dir.

 

You can change where the log goes in sabnzbd's webgui. I set mine to /var/log/sablog.

 

I believe the first time you set it you have to go into telnet and chmod the file so sabnzbd can write to it, but I think that is only the first time. If you reboot sabnzbd will make the file/directory itself and will have no problems.

 

Alternatively I believe you should be able to restart sabnzbd and it will create the file and be able to write to it.
