[Super-Poussin] Sabnzbd request

I would love this too! :)

I too have built Sabnzbd and find it very useful and powerful, especially with Newzbin - really great tool.

I agree, I'm only managing to get around 750kb/sec, but if I use a usenet client on my Mac I get closer to 2Mb/sec (I have a 20MBit connection). I don't think there's much I can do about it, I assume the processor is the constraint, and the value of unattended downloads, checking and unpacking outweighs the slow throughput.

Add me to the list who would like to see this as an addon. Note: I have both an NV+ and a Pro and hopefully if I ran it on the Pro the performance would be a lot better.

Long time reader, first time poster, so hello to all and kudos to such a great community!

I too have tried and failed to follow the steps (noob :( ), so another "any chance it can be made into an addon!? I have an NV+ 1GB

Thank You

I could really use some help with installing SABnzbd+, I did try the guide linked in this post but it does not work. I dont know linux/unix at all so any help would be appreciated

It would be great if someone could update this tutorial for Intel, or of course make an add-on.

Ok so after reseting my ReadyNas Duo, I went through the steps again...
This time when I invoke "/etc/init.d/sabnzbd start" I get the following error message....

-bash: /etc/init.d/sabnzbd: Permission denied

I tried restarting the box to see if the boot up script will run, but no joy. The only thing I changed in the script was the IP address of my readynas (ie 192.168.0.50 to 192.168.0.32)

Help would be much appreciated...

I got it running, but I haven't made the init.d script yet.

Have you been able to run it directly from the command line? I found I would get errors unless didn't include the full path to python and only put python instead of the path to python2.5. Have you tried that?

Within the init.d the locations for python and sabnzbd are as follows:-
/usr/local/bin/python2.5 /usr/local/src/SABnzbd/SABnzbd.py -d -f /etc/SABnzbd/sabnzbd.ini

But when I look at the directory structure for my nas, there is no SABznd directory in the /usr/local/src/ folder?
Plus there is no /etc/SABnzbd/sabnzbd.ini (in fact there is no SABnzbd folder in /etc at all)

So although I can manualy run the program using /usr/local/bin/python2.5 /root/src/SABnzbd-0.4.6/SABnzbd.py .... there is no ini file for SABnzb to use for settings... So when I try to resolve to the URL //192.168.0.32:8080/sabnzbd it does not work.

When I went through the install process, I first use WinSCP to connect to the nas as Root, then via this open a connection via Putty (again logging in as root) before running throught the install... Could there be a permissions issue here?

I think the permissions issue is the failure notice from not being able to read the ini file. I don't remember exactly the steps I took, its a little too frustrating to recall. :x

I do remember manually creating the path for the ini file and then manually copying over an ini file I had from my old crashed system and modifying it for the readynas. I would google a sample ini or install it on your main system and copy over the ini file from there.

Other than that, I used the latest sabnzbd at the time 0.4.11 and it works, but for some reason can't generate the api key so I disable it.
