I tired to update my version of sabnzbd plus today by uninstalling and reinstalling the one click app. However when tryin to reinstall it just hangs on the hda webui at "Preparing to install ..."

Any idea what might be wrong?

Code: Select all

Let me check it out. They (sourceforge.net) may have moved the download location on us.

UPDATE: The download location is ok. It might require a reboot in between uninstall and reinstall. Shouldn't, but something seems out of sort.

Ensure after uninstall the /var/hda/web-apps/sabnzbdplus directory is gone. The settings file should be backed up to the /var/hda/files/newsgroups share.

I will check it out when I get home.

Just tried on Ubuntu 12.04.1 32-bit and installed without error. I also did an uninstall and reinstall with no problems.

What version of SABnzbd Plus were you using prior to the attempted upgrade? Are there any other details you can provide?

I was moving from 0.7.3. I have manually installed the latest version and all seems to be working. I think you correctly identified the problem when you asked whether the folder had been removed.

I have created some folders within the sabnzbd installation folder for things like sickbeard integration and email templates (I have since moved these to the newsgroups folder). I suspect someone correctly ensured that user created stuff doesn't get deleted upon the uninstall and now I have a permission error on the install.

If I get some free time this week I'll remove my manual install and give the one-click a another try.

Can i ask whether the one-click app copies the .ini file from the newsgroups directory to the program directory or does the start command just reference the newsgroup directory?

Yes the app does copy the backup .ini file if it exists in the share and uses it. The current version is much easier to maintain as well for us.

I have stopped the manual install version of SABnzbd and removed the old folders from the sabnzbdplus install directory. The one-click installation flew through this time. I shall try and make a change to the wiki to reflect my troubles here.

On a separate note I think it would be helpful if the admin folder was also backed up on an uninstall this allows the new version of sabnzbd to keep the history of files downloaded, as well amount downloaded etc.

What files specifically in the folder should be backed up? I don't want to back up any program files that might be changed in a version.

EDIT: Thanks for updating the wiki guidance!
