Sabnzbd upgrade

WhoCares explained it.

His work is the same with each version, so instead of making people pay a "huge" fee and then offering the updates, he chose to make people pay a "small" fee for each version. You are then free to update, or to keep you current version (i still use the 0.6.9 i bought, i'll buy a newer version when i'll see one interesting enough : new functionnality, critical bug corrected, etc.)

Lame...

Thanks! I wouldn't buy from him again. Not for this reason, but for others.

Appreciate it.

how do i upgrade with keeping my old settings? i have a new bin file and only see a 'remove button' not an update button

just install it normally through the update firmware/addon link

Sabnzbd updates are released from their main website free of charge. Since you have alread paid for the the ReadyNAS Extra package, you can do a manual upgrade by following these directions:


### The following lines will setup and move
### most of SABnzbd's Core files into /c/.sabnzbd
### This will make future upgrades easier

### Part 1: Move Core Files and setup System Links
mv /usr/share/sabnzbdplus/* /c/.sabnzbd/
rm -rf /usr/share/sabnzbdplus/
ln -snf /c/.sabnzbd /usr/share/sabnzbdplus
ln -s /c/.sabnzbd/interfaces /usr/bin/interfaces

## Setup Download Path
# All downloaded files will be stored in the media share
# Download Path = /c/media/complete [Movies | Music | TV]
# You will need to change sabnzb config settings

## This is my download directory structure
## Please adjust to match your system
cd /c/.sabnzbd
rm -rf /c/.sabnzbd/Downloads
ln -s /c/media Downloads
mkdir Downloads/complete
mkdir Downloads/complete/Movies
mkdir Downloads/complete/Music
mkdir Downloads/complete/TV
mkdir Downloads/incomplete
mkdir Downloads/incomplete/watch
ln -s Downloads downloads

## Link SickBeard Scripts to SABnzbd
ln -s /c/.sickbeard/autoProcessTV scripts
ln -s scripts script

## Setup user ROOT links
cd /root
rm -rf .sabnzbd
ln -s /c/.sabnzbd ./.sabnzbd
rm -rf email
ln -s /c/.sabnzbd/email ./email
rm -rf scripts
ln -s /c/.sabnzbd/scripts ./scripts
rm =rf Downloads
ln -s /c/.sabnzbd/Downloads ./Downloads

## Edit Defaults File ~ change owner to 'root'
nano /etc/default/sabnzbdplus

# Install Sabnzbdplus into the System so that it auto-starts during boot
# Not needed, just put here to show how it's done
sudo update-rc.d sabnzbdplus defaults


### Part 2: Update (New) SABnzbd from main web site
### while keeping your current settings by copying the old settings over to the new
### installation. Start by moving the new SABnzbd Directory into place as /c/.sabnzbd-bak
