How to install NZBGET?

hi,

* first, download PHP addon viewtopic.php?f=47&t=21458
* install PHP addon in frontview --> system --> update --> local
* reboot your nas
* install NZGET addon viewtopic.php?f=47&t=21791
* reboot your NAS
* stop NZBget service in frontview --> service --> installed add-ons (uncheck the box and save)
* then edit the file nzbget.conf in \\nas_ip\addons-config\Nzbget to setup your newsgroup server parameters
* start NZBget service in frontview --> service --> installed add-ons (check the box and save)
* and launch the web ui with http://nas_ip/nzbget/

Installation Notes:
username is user
password is pass
files are downloaded in media share under nzbget/download
monitor directory is in media share under nzbget/download/nzb


I think it's complete :)

Is there also some sort of manual how to get the downloaded files automatically unrarred?
There are some posts about the problems, but even if I follow them all I'm unable to get the files Parred and Unrarred automatically.

Please help me with this one out.

I have a Readynas Pro Business edition with Radiator 4.2.5 and Nzbget 2.2 and PHP 1.0.

Thanks for the info, I am stuck on another problem.

I have installed OpenDNS Updater and I get to the line:

edit /c/addons-scripts/OpenDNS/opendns_updater and put your username/password in it

What do I do here, how do I get access to that directory is there anything extra I need to install?

Is there really no one that can tell exactly how to get NZBGET working correctly to UNPAR and UNRAR automatically?

I'd really appreciate the help of an expert!

I have par checking / unrarring working with NZBget, I shall show you relevant parts of nzbget.conf.

### PAR CHECK/REPAIR AND POSTPROCESSING                                    ###

# Reload Post-processor-queue on start, if it exists (yes, no)
# For this option to work the options "SaveQueue" and "ReloadQueue" must
# be also enabled.
ReloadPostQueue=yes

# How many par2-files to load (none, all, one)
# none - all par2-files must be automatically paused
# all - all par2-files must be downloaded
# one - only one main par2-file must be dowloaded and other must be paused
# Paused files remain in queue and can be unpaused by parchecker when needed
LoadPars=one

# Automatic par-verification (yes, no)
# To download only needed par2-files (smart par-files loading) set also 
# the option "loadpars" to "one". If option "loadpars" is set to "all",
# all par2-files will be downloaded before verification and repair starts.
# The option "renamebroken" must be set to "no", otherwise the par-checker
# may not find renamed files and fail
ParCheck=yes

# Automatic par-repair (yes, no)
# If option "parcheck" is enabled and "parrepair" is not, the program
# only verifies downloaded files and downloads needed par2-files, but does
# not start repair-process. This is useful if the server does not have
# enough CPU power, since repairing of large files may take too much
# resources and time on a slow computers.
# This option has effect only if the option "parcheck" is enabled
ParRepair=yes

# Use only par2-files with matching names (yes, no)
# If par-check needs extra par-blocks it searches for par2-files
# in download queue, which can be unpaused and used for restore. 
# These par2-files should have the same base name as the main par2-file, 
# currently loaded in par-checker. Sometimes extra par files (especially if 
# they were uploaded by a different poster) have not matching names. 
# Normally par-checker does not use these files, but you can allow it 
# to use these files by setting "strictparname" to "no".
# This has however a side effect: if NZB-file contains more than one collection
# of files (with different par-sets), par-checker may download par-files from
# a wrong collection. This increases you traffic (but not harm par-check).
# NOTE: par-checker always uses only par-files added from the same NZB-file
# and the option "strictparname" does not change this behavior
StrictParName=yes

# Pause download queue during check/repair (yes, no)
# Enable the option to give CPU more time for par-check/repair. That helps
# to speed up check/repair on slow CPUs with fast connection (e.g. NAS-devices).
# NOTE: if parchecker needs additional par-files it temporary unpauses queue
# NOTE: See also option <PostPauseQueue>.
ParPauseQueue=yes

# Cleanup download queue after successful check/repair (yes, no)
# Enable this option for automatic deletion of unneeded (paused) par-files 
# from download queue after successful check/repair.
# NOTE: before cleaning up the program checks if all paused files are par-files.
# If there are paused non-par-files (this means that you have paused them
# manually), the cleanup will be skipped for this collection.
ParCleanupQueue=yes

# Delete source nzb-file after successful check/repair (yes, no)
# Enable this option for automatic deletion of nzb-file from incoming directory 
# after successful check/repair.
NzbCleanupDisk=yes

# Set path to program, that must be executed after the download of nzb-file 
# or one collection in nzb-file (if par-check enabled and nzb-file contains 
# multiple collections; see note below for the definition of "collection") 
# is completed and possibly par-checked/repaired.
# Arguments passed to that program:
#  1 - path to destination dir, where downloaded files are located;
#  2 - name of nzb-file processed;
#  3 - name of par-file processed (if par-checked) or empty string (if not);
#  4 - result of par-check:
#      0 - not checked: par-check disabled or nzb-file does not contain any
#          par-files;
#      1 - checked and failed to repair;
#      2 - checked and sucessfully repaired;
#      3 - checked and can be repaired but repair is disabled;
#  5 - state of nzb-job:
#      0 - there are more collections in this nzb-file queued;
#      1 - this was the last collection in nzb-file;
#  6 - indication of failed par-jobs for current nzb-file:
#      0 - no failed par-jobs;
#      1 - current par-job or any of the previous par-jobs for the
#          same nzb-files failed;
#  7 - category assigned to nzb-file (can be empty string).
#
# NOTE: The parameter "state of nzb-job" is very important and MUST be checked 
# even in the simplest scripts.
# If par-check is enabled and nzb-file contains more than one collection
# of files the postprocess-program is called after each collection is completed
# and par-checked. If you want to unpack files or clean up the directory 
# (delete par-files, etc.) there are two possibilities, when you can do this:
#  1) you parse the "name of par-file processed" to find out the base name
#     of collection and clean up only files from this collection (not reliable,
#     because par-files sometimes have different names than rar-files);
#  2) or you just check the parameters "state of nzb-job" and "indication of 
#     failed par-jobs" and do the processing, only if they are set to "1" 
#     (which means, that this was the last collection in nzb-file and all files 
#      are now completed) and to "0" (no failed par-jobs) respectively;
# NOTE 2: if the option "ParCheck" is disabled nzbget calls PostProcess
# only once, not after every collection, because the detection of collection
# is disabled in this case;
# NOTE 3: the term "collection" in the above description actually means 
# "par-set". To determine what "collections" are present in nzb-file nzbget 
# looks for par-sets. If any collection of files within nzb-file does 
# not have any par-files, this collection will not be detected.
# For example, for nzb-file containing three collections but only two par-sets, 
# the postprocess will be called two times - after processing of each par-set.
# NOTE 4: an example script for unrarring is provided within distribution 
# in file <postprocess-example.sh>
# NOTE 5: do not forget to uncomment the next line
PostProcess=/c/addons-config/Nzbget/unpak.sh

# Allow multiple post-processing for the same nzb-file (yes,no)
# After the post-processing (par-check and call of a postprocess-script) is
# completed, nzbget adds the nzb-file to a list of completed-jobs. The nzb-file
# stays in the list until the last file from that nzb-file is deleted from 
# the download queue (it occurs straight away if the par-check was successful 
# and the option "ParCleanupQueue" is enabled).
# That means, if a paused file from a nzb-collection becomes unpaused 
# (manually or from a post-process-script) after the collection was allready 
# postprocessed nzbget will not post-process nzb-file again.
# This prevents the unwanted multiple post-processings of the same nzb-file.
# But it might be needed if the par-check/-repair are performed not directly 
# by nzbget but from a post-process-script.
# NOTE 1: enable this option only if you were advised to do that by the author
# of the post-process-script
# NOTE 2: by enabling "AllowReProcess" you should disable the option "ParCheck"
# to prevent multiple par-checking
AllowReProcess=yes

# Set the default message-kind for output received from postprocess-script 
# (None, Detail, Info, Warning, Error, Debug).
# NZBGet checks if the line written by the script to stdout or stderr starts
# with special character-sequence, determining the message-kind, e.g.:
# [INFO] bla-bla
# [DETAIL] bla-bla
# [WARNING] bla-bla
# [ERROR] bla-bla
# [DEBUG] bla-bla
# If the message-kind was detected the text is added to log with detected type.
# Otherwise the message becomes the default kind, specified in this option.
ProcessLogKind=Detail

# Pause download queue during executing of postprocess-script (yes, no)
# Enable the option to give CPU more time for postprocess-script. That helps
# to speed up postprocess on slow CPUs with fast connection (e.g. NAS-devices).
# NOTE: See also option <ParPauseQueue>.
PostPauseQueue=yes

Also you will have to create a file called unpak.sh with the follow content. Don't forget to chmod it 777, place the file in the same directory as nzbget.conf. Which by default is /c/addons-config/Nzbget/.

You also need unrar and par2 packages. You can install those via SSH. You need SSH access and apt-get addons, which you can get at the follow locations.

http://www.readynas.com/download/addons/4.00/EnableRootSSH_1.0.bin
http://www.readynas.com/download/addons/4.00/APT_1.0.bin

apt-get update
apt-get install par2
apt-get install unrar

How do you get access to the directory structure to modify files in directories?

Check your network places. There has been an extra share added: addons-config.

Another way is to access it via SSH.

Hi could use some help with the install for this. Followed the steps below, but when try to open the app, http://192.168.0.32/nzbget/ , I browser dialogue :-

You have chosen to open
Which is a: application / x-http-php
What should firefox do with this file?

Any ideas?

From some strange reason, after powering down the device overnight - i now tried the nzbget and it works!!!
Strange since I rebooted the device after both PHP & NZbget installs.... Anyone know why this is?

Hi there,
I've had a good look through the forums, but I can't find the info I'm after.
I didn't think I was stupid where computers are concerned, but there seems to be an assumption that you'd know how to configure the conf file.
I took one look at mine, and thought "huh!".

I've installed the PHP add-on, I've installed NZBget, I can get in to the gui....but I've no idea where to put my file server details. Usually I use newsleecher to get stuff from Astraweb - but I just can't see how I enter that - either in the config, or in the conf file.
Can someone kindly point me in the right direction?

Cheers
Dave
