SabNZB and Sickbeard

Anyone have info on setting this up. I did this in fedora last year with out any issues, but now in ubuntu its not working.

I am wondering if I am missing something or something changed, or is it because I am not using the default paths anymore. ie: /var/hda/files/...
I have all my data going to a 2nd HDD /files/data/downloads/sabnzb

Any help would be great.

I would imagine it has to do with where you have your data directed. Most apps are set to work with paths in /var/hda/files, but that can be changed.

The SABnzbd config file sets it to /var/hda/files/newsgroups. So you have two options here, either change the config to match your new location or put a symylink to point to it.

You risk breaking a lot of things when you change the default path for files from /var/hda/files to something else. Not that you cannot work around it though. You can use symlinks to redirect to your new location I would think fairly easily.

OK I will set the paths back to default, and see if that fixes it. If it does, I ok leaving it like that since it will only be temporarly the files are getting saved.

I will keep you posted
