Thanks a mil also to Influencer,

 

without your good self putting in the work we wouldn't have newznab on unraid.

 

 

Its my pleasure. I enjoy doing it,

 

Thank you to all the users that support me and extra thanks to those that have donated. It is greatly appreciated and my kids thank you(lately donations have gone to christmas presents)

Running the script under the cron_scripts or nix_script directories will continuously run the updates every 10 minutes by default as long as the last update has finished. If the last update hasn't finished it will try again in 10 minutes. You can adjust the timing for your personal preferences.

 

the scripts in the nix_script dir will ONLY run after a 10 min wait 'after' the script finishes its run - so if it takes 2.5 hrs to let the update_binary and update_releases script to run - it will wait 10 min before it starts over - it will not allow 2 of the same script to run at the same time.

 

doing so can damage your mysql database beyond repair

I've totally re-written the supplied screen script to be used via cron, or by the console, including options to trigger nzb imports and call the parsing helpers.

 

If anyone is interested, I can post it after I test a little more.

Getting an 404 not found and don't understand why.

 

SF webserver root = /mnt/cache/.web/ with the same listed in the newznab plugin. Plugin shows 'Not configured' - try to go to myserver:81/www/install/ and get the 404.

 

I have this running on a VM but want to try it on my unRaid for various reasons.

 

Any ideas?

Re-read my post, that's what I said.

Did you have it run successfully from vm with the webroot set as .web? Not sure if the webserver will like the period in the root, try just web. You can make the share cache only which deprecated the need for hidden directories. If so, check or replace your rewrite rules.

 

EDIT: Just re-read your problem. I need to re-word that part, the "SERVER-ROOT" in the newznab plug-in needs to be one folder down from what you have web-root set for in the web server plug-in.

 

So if in the web-server plug-in you have the web-root set as /mnt/cache/server/www/

In newznab-plugin you need to set it as /mnt/cache/server/

After I'd posted I had re-read this thread and tried it as:

 

SF Websvr: /mnt/cache/web/www/

Nab: /mnt/cache/web/

 

and still got the same thing.

 

 

Check your lighttpd.cfg in /boot/config/plugins/simpleFeatures/

 

Possibly replace with this known good config, lighttpd.cfg

Check your lighttpd.cfg in /boot/config/plugins/simpleFeatures/

now I just get a broken page - i.e. no 404.

Thats odd... post output of

ls -l /mnt/cache/web/
ls -l /mnt/cache/web/www

Try running fix permissions or chmod -R 777 /mnt/cache/web

 

 

I got the Mega Nzb pack from Newznab. Man is it huge. Just the Moves.tar.tgz is 16g.

If you donated for the plus. Go to the site and click on the irc chat like. PM a op. You wont need to backlog. I untared the MovesHD and I just wanted the A's. From A to B was 1,600 nzbs.

no change. I deleted all of SF, plugins etc. Reinstalled, samething.

ok, replaced lighttpd.cfg with yours and know works - although can't connect to mysql!

Which OP did you PM? There is only one on there currently and it says not to PM unless requested to do so.

Ask for private chat in main channel. Tell him you donated and need support.

A few days ago I saw a post on these forums that said to pm the op named bb (for the backfill / NZB website info). I got into IRC a day later & pm-ed bb. I did not get a response right away, just kept the window open on another monitor while I did something else. I saw a few people ask in chat & were told bb could help, to message him then wait. After several hours, I saw bb start to talk in chat. I sent him another pm & waited. This time he responded fairly quickly with the info.

 

Guess he was being overwhelmed with people pm-ing over & over so he changed the channel message. What batt01 suggested seems like the best way to get the info without overwhelming anyone.

I dont remember the nave of theop. I did it in the wee hours of the morning. I ask for help in open chat, saying I donated and wanted access to some downloads. Took only a couple of mins. Might be a good to say you only need access to files, so they know, they are not about to get into a long support chat.

 

I am importing the nzbs now using the modified newznab_screen.sn. Here is a link to the guide.  http://www.tiag.me/how-to-backfill-newznab-safely-without-bloating-your-database/

Greeting all, and thanks for some GREAT Plugins.

As of today I have found that all the info on the website has given me the needed info for creating and running my plugins, but this plugin is giving me all sorts of problems to get working.

The steps I have taken are as such:

1)Through windows I have created 2 new folders (server and msql) on my cache drive under a share folder called appdata, which in turn is using cache only setting.

2)drag mysql5_20120805.plg, simpleFeatures.web.server-1.0.5-noarch-1.plg, simpleFeatures.core.webGUI-1.0.5-noarch-1.plg and newznab_unplugged.plg into my flash /config/plugins directory.

3) putty in my tower, cd to boot/config/plugins and install above plgs.

4) replace lighttpd.cfg with the proper lighttpd.cfg from nnplus

5)go to //tower:8080/settings

6)configure webserver settings as /mnt/cache/appdata/server/www/ port 81 enable webserver. Says running Good

7)reboot server

8)go to //tower:8080/settings and configure mysql as /mnt/cache/appdata/mysql/ enable says running good

9)go to //tower:8080/settings and configure newznab  /mnt/cache/server/ choose the nnplus options and enable

10) newznab says not configure, click and brings me to step 1 all good step 2 choose database, cannot select or open database. Whoops

11)chmod -R 777 to /mnt/cache/mysql

12) try setting newznab again and get to step 2 and no go again.

Can anyone help,Please, I am really stupid with mysql?

 

Problem SOLVED. Thanks all.

Worked perfectly. Also sent me to a page with instructions on how to not bloat your database with a script (see batt01 prior post for link). Pretty cool!

Finally got this up and running on unRaid. Interestingly its performs better on my unRaid box (2.66Ghz Core 2 Duo, 4Gb) than in an unbuntu VM on my hexacore MacPro (using 4 cores). Go figure.

the best way to setup the web dir to avoid pathing problems is as follows:

 

my setup:

 

/mnt/cache/www

 

under that I have

 

/mnt/cache/www/public_html

 

I svn co in that dir - that gives me a nnplus dir in my public_html with everything  below

 

lighthttpd web root is set at /mnt/cache/www/public_html/nnplus/www

 

this way you will not have the extra folders in your web path url to mess up the api processing - newsnab expects www.name.ext/page and nothing else before the /page.....

I've totally re-written the supplied screen script to be used via cron, or by the console, including options to trigger nzb imports and call the parsing helpers.

 

If anyone is interested, I can post it after I test a little more.

 

I am interested
