January 27, 201313 yr For those running multiple apps with the webserver and have edited the SimpleFeatures lighttpd.cfg file to have different port #s for different apps, how have you connected Newznab to Sickbeard and Couchpotato? For example, I have: Newznab on http://192.168.0.30:8882 PHPVBox on http://192.168.0.30:8883 Spotweb on http://192.168.0.30:8884 and this is how I can go into their GUIs with a webbrowser. Also, doing http://192.168.0.30:8882/api?t=c http://192.168.0.30:8884/api?t=c in a webbrowser brings up "This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below." with categories and sub IDs Simply having in Sickbeard the URL as http://192.168.0.30/ and the API gives a connection error of: SEARCHQUEUE-RSS-SEARCH :: Error loading local_newznab URL: http://192.168.0.30/api?age=1300&apikey=########## I already have custom icons made for my local_newznab and local_spotweb

Someone mentioned that they had success using their dns page... Yourdnspage.net:8882 or whatever dns provider and port your using I tried the same for newznab + spotweb and no issues in sickbeard anymore
January 28, 201313 yr Also, doing http://192.168.0.30:8882/api?t=c http://192.168.0.30:8884/api?t=c in a webbrowser brings up "This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below." with categories and sub IDs That's correct isn't it? As long as you are seeing the page come back then you know you're API call is working for the URL given. I stand to be corrected, but I don't think you would have any style information, hence the browser message. Was this in FF or Chrome by any chance? I think the same in IE doesn't give that warning. Simply having in Sickbeard the URL as http://192.168.0.30/ and the API gives a connection error of: SEARCHQUEUE-RSS-SEARCH :: Error loading local_newznab URL: http://192.168.0.30/api?age=1300&apikey=########## From your text above you've only given sickbeard the ip address. Not the port. Shouldn't the line in sickbeard be "http://192.168.0.30:888x" ?
January 28, 201313 yr I'd like to limit the amount of my supernews connections that newznab uses. I found thread that talks about it but I dont have the file to edit like the guy mentions. Does anyone know what I need to do? http://www.newznabforums.com/index.php?topic=67.0

January 29, 201313 yr From your text above you've only given sickbeard the ip address. Not the port. Shouldn't the line in sickbeard be "http://192.168.0.30:888x" ? Entering and saving the port number gets truncated by sickbeard, so it seems directing sickbeard to a port# is not feasible with the current configuration settings SB has. mp328 mentioned creating a DNS server with the SimpleFeatures plugin works to circumvent this for both Newznab and Spotweb, but I'm still waiting on someone in the SimpleFeatures thread to describe how the DNS Server config works. I'm assuming this is a way to somehow direct, for example: http://192.168.0.30:8882 into http://192.168.0.31 or something like that.
January 29, 201313 yr Stop Sickbeard and directly edit the config.ini. My instance of Sickbeard happily has a port within the site URL edit box and communicates correctly with spotweb and newznab. (Apologies for brevity of reply, on mobile device)

I am not referring to dns server plugin, but rather to an online service like this http://dyn.com/dns/. Looks like they charge for it now, but I'm sure there are free alternatives out there. I signed up years ago when it was still free there. The login for the DNS is being updated thru the router... Like yourself I have no idea how to configure the DNS Server plugin in SimpleFeatures
January 30, 201313 yr Ah I see, you want a publicly resolvable DNS entry. Ok, then simplefeaures DNS plugin is not going help as that'll setup a local DNS nameserver. I've never installed it, but imagine it's very similar to setting up a DNS server in a windows Active Directory environment. In which case its geared towards having a central location on your local network to resolve FQDN's for each machine on your lan and can probably query upstream root nameservers, but that's not going to help you. You can still get a free dyndns name, however you have to be prepared to jump through a few hoops, including signing up to their free 14 day pro trial and unfortunately that means giving payment details. I've used them for years and still have two free hosts under my account, but recently needed another for a family member. I was reluctant to do the whole payment thing but did it anyway under a fresh account. Was fairly painless. Chose the DNS host I wanted, signed up for the free pro trial and immediately cancelled. You get to keep the DDNS host you created.

You get to keep the DDNS host you created. I use http://www.dnsexit.com/. Last I checked it was still free. Have router update dynamically. Nice thing about dnsexit, if you have your own domain you can set your name servers to dnsexit's and be able to use it in conjunction with your server.

You get to keep the DDNS host you created. maybe we're misunderstanding each other, i was trying to explain how i had mine setup and working with newznab. but was to lazy to type it all out on the tablet lol. i use dyn.com myself for all my unraid access from the outside newznab/spotweb/sb/sab/cp/subsonic/plex and all the other pages but your write up will sure help the other fellas that are trying to set it up. and as i was hoping someone was just gonna add a free one and zack did just above this post so once it's all setup the dns server address that people end up singing up with goes into CP/SB and the api look up works just fine. so u may end up with yourdnsservername.net:88xx and the port number u have. P.S. dont forget to forward those ports on your router so they are accessible from the internet and highly recommended any app (CP/SB/SAB) with internet access has a username/password set to it....
January 31, 201313 yr It seems you all are strong and confident enough with DNS and networking configs to open your server to the web, but I'm struggling to understand these terms so I'm reluctant to do this. Is setting up something locally an option anyone has accomplished? Unarguably my favorite part of having an unraid server is the continual challenges faced with getting apps working. so once it's all setup the dns server address that people end up singing up with goes into CP/SB and the api look up works just fine. so u may end up with yourdnsservername.net:88xx and the port number u have. So you still have a port# listed in CP and SB that works to call on Newznab correctly? It doesn't truncate the port# for you?

February 1, 201313 yr Yes, that answers my question. I'm on the most updated SB version and when I enter a port # after the IP, click Save changes, then restart SB, it automatically drops the port# and am only left with the IP address, so connection fails. Consequently, I cannot seem to point SB or CP to my local Newznab (or Spotweb) databases. Any insights from you or others what I might be doing this incorrectly? Is it possible I have to do this port forwarding thing on my router to get it to work?

Don't try to update an old one.

February 5, 201313 yr When i go to the Newznab plugin the system seems to hang a while to load. I get sh: etc/rc/rc.newznab: No such file or directory It finally loads but take about 20 seconds. Is any one else seeing this?
February 16, 201313 yr Trying to install AlienXAXS newsdash. It needs to have php5-xcache installed to go forward. Does anyone know where i can locate this program for unraid?
February 17, 201313 yr Has anyone had any success with the latest version of simple features 1.0.11? I was running 1.0.5 with no issues but when I updated I could no longer load the newznab web page - I got a '500' error in the browser. I have now gone straight back to 1.0.5. Anyone have any ideas? Sadly I didn't get a log file as I went straight back to 1.0.5
February 17, 201313 yr After the upgrade to 1.0.11 I had to go back into my php.ini file and enable the mysql extension. I also had to enable openssl, curl, zip and ctype. And I had to readd the lighttpd rewrite rules in lighttpd.cfg. I got them from one of Influencer's previous posts (around pg. 2 of this thread). url.rewrite-once = ( "^/.*\.(css|jpg|jpeg|gif|png|js|ico)" => "$0", "^/(admin|install).*$" => "$0", "^/([^/\.]+)/?(?:\?(.*))$" => "index.php?page=$1&$2", "^/([^/\.]+)/?$" => "index.php?page=$1", "^/([^/\.]+)/([^/]+)/?(?:\?(.*))$" => "index.php?page=$1&id=$2&$3", "^/([^/\.]+)/([^/]+)/?$" => "index.php?page=$1&id=$2", "^/([^/\.]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$" => "index.php?page=$1&id=$2&subpage=$3" )
February 18, 201313 yr anyone been able to get newznab to send out invite requests thru ssmtp? Mine says they are sent - but they never show up - and I am not sure where to look. I have the SF email setup and test email makes it to my account - can I hook into that? Myk
