Restarting par/unrar process on SABNZBD

nobody ?
Seems like this forum is loosing its appeal to some members perhaps ?

In what directory are the files from the interrupted process? In the incomplete dir? If so, the best you can do is manually unpack the stuff and move it to the completed dir. I don't think SABnzbd has a restart mechanism for interrupted tasks.

Offcourse i can move them to my pc for processing but that is defeating the question: the reason for restarting is that i don't want to move 45Gb of data across the lan but just rather persuade my nas to process it again.

Anyway thx for the support, appreciate it !

Why would you want to move them to the PC? SSH to the NAS and use unrar/whatever ...

Hah.. assumptions are the mother of all fuckups...

I am a Windows pointy clicky guy.
SSH i do with WINSCP ...
And last time i checked there wasn't a right-click action that said "tell nas to par and unrar it" ...
So any hints as to what to type exactly in SSH would be very much appreciated..

I didn't make any assumption - except maybe that I assumed that all people are able to learn ;)

Actually, you don't. With WinSCP you do SCP ;) For SSH you'd need PuTTY (free) or SecureCRT (pay).

Hmm. What about just mounting the share where the files are stored and use WinRAR or the like?

If all else fails, we could try this as a last resort, yes :-D

Hmm what does the terminal windo pop-up in winscp do then ?
But i digress, i have Putty as well, scares the living daylights out of me, this gaping black hole ...

Well the point is moot really, i already downloaded it again in the last couple of days.
But i am still interested to know the how and when..
Mounting the share isn't the problem, but that causes the 150Gb of data to be copied over the wire.
Which is a lot even with a gige nic.
Thats why i asked initally, so as not to have to do this.

Thx anyway

Well, not having used WinSCP for ... uh ... more than seven years now, I must admit I may have missed some features :)
Also, black isn't scary, it's just cool. Having said that, the basic commands to manually unpack the files would be:

cd /c/<name of share>/incomplete
unrar x <name of base rar archive file>

Cool thanx... while you're at it ... can you tell me how to repair them with par at the commandline ?
I'll try to enter the black void then next time this occurs:-)

Generally with

par2 r <name of par2 file>

Optionally you can specify what files to repair. Quite obviously you should be in the directory where the files to be repaired reside before issuing the above command ;)
