- PabloCreepAspirantthibs, I think I'm going to marry you.
I came across a couple of hiccups, but once I'd figured out I hadn't put uniq in the right place everything compiled. Had to obviously edit the sabnzbd file we created to match the IP of the readynas, and make it executable, and also change a couple of settings in the /etc/SABnzbd/sabnzbd.ini file to reflect the IP of the nas and changed the port... then we were flying. Top do - glad I, well, you, got it working!
Cheers,
Al - bigred15Aspirant

I've been trying to get this working and followed the guide line by line but I seem to be having the same issue with uniq. Once I get to the process of installing python I get an error regarding uniq but can't seem to figure out how to fix it. I am a total linux noob and could use any help you guys can give me to get sab installed on my duo. How do I get uniq in the right place? Thanks in advance. - bigred15AspirantCan anyone point me in the right direction on this? I am still getting an error that the "uniq" command does not exist when compiling python. I see the uniq file in src/usr/bin but it doesn't seem to do anything when i try uniq --help for example. Sorry for butchering all of this as I'm a total nix noob as I mentioned above. Is anyone still following this thread?
- bigred15AspirantI was able to get Sabnzbd+ working on my readynas duo with some help from Romain, the guy who wrote the tutorial. There is one lingering problem that I could use some guidance on. I seem to have my permissions set up properly on the Readynas, but when something gets downloaded with Sabnzbd on the readynas it seems to set the permissions so that only admin can access the files. So I have to either access a share as admin or run the process on frontview that makes all files in the share accessible to guest users. Can anyone shed some light on this problem?
Thanks - nyquist1Aspirant

What's probably happening is that SAB is running as root, and so when it writes to the file system, those files are owned by root.
I guess there are two ways of going about this:
a. change how you have SAB set up so it runs as whatever user the readynas chown's the files/directories to when it runs that script from FrontView.
or
b. run a chmod/chown as a post processing script in SAB.
I'm not a coder, just a doer, but perhaps a coder would be so kind as to illuminate us with the brass tacks on what needs to change.
Anyone? - bigred15Aspirant

I appreciate the reply. It was actually right in front of my face all along. There is an input in SABnzbd+ for users running on linux systems to set the file permissions on downloads automatically. It was setting them all as root and I have changed this so that everyone can read/write/open the files right away. Thanks for responding, much appreciated. - frejacAspirant

Awesome!!
Followed your guide roughly and it works great! (I went for ver 0.4.7)
I added "nice -19" to the startup script, makes the box able to handle other tasks as well.
Two things I really like with this app:
1. The integration it has to Newzbin.
2. RSS-support (I'm using RSS-feed from mytvnzb.foechoer.be)
There is a good firefox addon too, nzbStatus.
I have a NV+
Perhaps Super-Poussin could make an addon, to make it easier for others? :) - GibberishDriftwAspirant

I got SABnzbd running on the DUO, using you tutorial, THX.
But I think the decoding and SABnzbd put to much strain on the processor.
My downloads are set to pause every couple of minutes, as I can see in SABnzbd
logging too, which leaves me with an average download speed of 700-800 KB/s.
I do have 1024 MB memory installed but no gain setting SABnzbd to using more
memory. Anyone got the same problem, or maybe a fix....
I guess I have to revert to NZBGet which does not have this problem, tho SABnzbd is
better with RSS integration, UI and possibilities.
What is the best way to uninstall SABnzbd, as the make command has no uninstall.
Complete reset to factory of DUO ? And then to copy all data back to it ?
Gibb - tristan1AspirantWould be very nice to have this as an addon!

I second that!
Followed thibs tutorial to the letter but it doesn't work (NV+) and for someone who's not all that familliar with linux it can be a b&tch to troubleshoot.
