Does anyone know how to stop newznab, mysql, webserver from running so I can shutdown my unraid server? Ever since I got this running I have issues powering down my system and I've started getting parity sync errors. So I'm troubleshooting those errors and I need to power it down to do memtesting.

 

MySQL and Webserver can be shutdown from the plugin settings. Just set to disabled and apply. No need to shut off newznab.

Ok thanks. I do this already but wasnt sure if that was enough.

Itoolio, Where is you mysql database located?

 

I ask because when I first installed mine, I did not specify for it to be on the cache only share. The mover would run overnight & cause some similar db corruptions to what you are reporting.

 

Once I determined the cause, I set my mysql share to be cache only then stopped mysql & uninstalled it then reinstalled it (verifying it only installed to my cache drive). All has been working for me with no corruptions since. I've seen some other people report they did the opposite (moved to parity protected only) with good results. I prefer to have my cache drive be the only drive constantly spun up.

 

I think the main thing is to not be running updates while your mover script is moving your mysql files. This may or may not be your issue, but something worth checking.

 

- On a side note, I have a cron script running daily to do mysqldumps of my dbs in case I have any troubles again. Since I made the cache only share change, have not needed them yet.

@laine:

 

I have mysql installed to:

 

/mnt/cache/.mysql , so I think that it is on the cache drive, right?

 

And the DB just crashed again...maybe I should delete / reinstall mysql into a new path?

/mnt/cache/.mysql , so I think that it is on the cache drive, right?

 

I have several apps running under /mnt/cache/.custom that are cache only because the mover ignores files & directories starting with a period. However, I actually created my mysql share (as "mysql") & set it to Use Cache Disk: Only. Seems like I read somewhere that mysql might have an issue with the period in the file path. I can't remember where I read that.

 

Does anyone else have anything to say about having mysql installed with a period in the path?

Not that I know of but I'm not using a period in the name. Using a period in front of the directory name is 4.7 old school and not needed with the enw RC's to avoid moving.

newznab plug-in is updated to fix the oversized image I promised to fix a while back,

 

On my Settings page at the bottom of the page, under Unplugged PLG, I have Newznab+. I am also using your plugins for Sab, Sick & Couch, but they are at the top of the page, under Network Services. Should Sab, Sick & Couch also be under Unplugged PLG?

 

I didn't really notice the previous image was "oversized" as it was the only thing down there... but I can tell it is smaller now.

Lainie, you must be using old versions, I moved them down to my own header a while back because the "Network Services" was starting to get reallly full,

 

And it wouldn't appear oversized until the others are around it, then its painfully obvious

I was updating the apps every so often & I know from time to time I clicked the update plg link... but guess I got behind on updates. Your plugins are all down under your header now. Just LazyLibrarian, MySQL & SimpleFeatures Web Server plugins still under Network Services (& those came from elsewhere).

 

That was painless & everything is still working (no reboot needed)! Thank you.

All,

 

The Cron script is now setup for the new branch of Newznab, I would STRONGLY reccomend that you don't use the dev branch until it is merged, so for now...if you grab a new version of the cron script don't enable imports.

 

Also, the Cron script is likely to be checked into Newznab with the next merge...when that happens there will be no more need to update manually.  I'm /almost/ done with a new plugin to control a whole slew of newznab related features...once released, all features of the cron script will be avaliable to setup via the plugin /or/ by hand.

 

The bonus of the plugin is the crontab beting updated when unraid boots...along with a lot of other neat toys.

 

If anyone is willing to help test the script, please PM me.  I can't possibly test all the possible combinations, and I don't want to release it on the general users without some validation.

Not that I know of but I'm not using a period in the name. Using a period in front of the directory name is 4.7 old school and not needed with the enw RC's to avoid moving.

 

This seemed to have fixed my issues...it's been running fine for the last few hours, with imports of nzbs processing successfully.

 

 

Keeping my fingers crossed....

Just wanted to let you know the version of the script I installed yesterday is running great.  It has been running a little over 24 hours now.  I verified that it has not stalled at all and needed to kill the term session.  Searched for "stale: in the log and no occurrence of it.  It is running the enhanced post processing at the appropriate time.    I am running it with the -p flag.

 

You can PM me if you would like.  depending on what you need, I may be able to help you test the script.

I have Newznab back filling at the moment.  I have an issue of getting couch-potato to use my local box.  I have set it up both with the internal ip address and the external ip(forwarded) but it seems couch just will not use it.  i found a movie that i am testing with.  when I set it up in CP it just does not see my feed.  I am using the API key from the profile tab in Newznab.  Any ideals on what i am missing.

How is everyone going with their release categorization? I noticed that I am seeing hardly any 1080p movies in the Movie > HD category, they're mainly all 720p releases, but if I go to NZBSRUS 1080p movies are appearing in their release list. I went to the Other > Misc category and have 8 pages worth of garbled releases many of which are from a.b.hdtv.x264 and of those some are large enough to be 1080p. Anyone else having this problem? Any idea why those releases arent being named and categorised properly?

Did you specify the port? My CouchPotato has localhost:8084 as the address to use for my newznab install

i have tried localhost:81  it works fine foe sabnzbd.. 

 

 

In CP where you have defined the News Profvider, do you have NewzNab ticked and then a tick next to the host field that contains Localhost:81?

Make sure there are no spaces in the API field?

 

I've never had any problems with CP seeing my NewzNab install so it must be something simple.

Checks in both boxes and no spaces...

this is in the log file of CP

My CP has no problem either. You're doing something wrong.

can one of you that have CP working look at your logs and tell me if this is what you are showing?

I was looking to add Sphinx to newznab. Anyone had any success? I checked for a slackware package but came up with only very old development stuff.

 

Influencer, great work on the plugins.

I think i got it.  Not sure why it was misbehaving.  Restarted several times and now it ppears to be working.

 

thanks

Tybio was working on a Sphinx plugin in the thread http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=24890. Not sure when the plugin will be ready, but know he has reported success with sphinx on unRAID. I'm waiting to see what he creates.

If you want i can compile latest version, just say what you exacly want ...

I got this when installing the newznab_extars.plg , it's looks like it doesn't  install all features ? see images.
