sabNZBd installation woe's.

[Sokonomi]

Hello All,

First id like to state that I admire the amount of patience you all can muster to work with this, because as my first time using freeBSD, this has been a harrowing ride sofar. :')

What I am trying to do is install the sabNZBd plugin. I have tried following this tutorial, but sadly I was unable to get through it due to various problems.

The first hitch was that there was a Repository problem;

Code:

root@sabnzbd_1:/ # pkg install sabnzbdplus
pkg: Repository FreeBSD has a wrong packagesite, need to re-create database

So I decided to just install the plugin 'the way god intended', through FreeNAS's plugin system.
It made its little jail and plopped the plugin into it, fine and dandy.

Made my way down the tutorial a little further, ran into a path problem;

Code:

root@sabnzbd_1:/ # chown -R newmedia:newmedia /usr/local/sabnzbd
chown: /usr/local/sabnzbd: No such file or directory

I went looking at the file structure of the plugin, the folder indeed doesn't exist and I have no idea what it is supposed to be, so I decided to just skip and hail mary it.

And sure enough;

Code:

root@sabnzbd_1:/ # service sabnzbd start																							
Starting sabnzbd.																												   
																																   
Fatal error:																														
  "/var/db/sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini" is not a valid configuration file<br>Error message: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/db/sabnzbd/s
abnzbd.ini'																														 
Specify a correct file or delete this file.																						 
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/sabnzbd: WARNING: failed to start sabnzbd 

So now im at the end of the rope, google is no help.
What should I do now?

So there are a few things that you can try here. I'm not sure why you are getting the wrong packagesite output when you try to install sab, but I think it's a safe assumption that it's a problem with the jail configuration.

Try these commands and see what you get

Code:

pkg upgrade
pkg update

Are you able to install any packages, or is it strictly a problem with sabnzbdplus?
Try recreating a fresh jail, and giving it another shot.
I'm not familiar enough with jail configs to know much else to try solving this

The reason that you can't run the chown command when you install the sabnzbd plugin, is that the directories are different for plugins and packages. If you install sabnzbd as a plugin, the config directory is
/var/db/sabnzbd
likewise for sonarr
/var/db/sonarr

Also try googling the output

Code:

pkg: Repository FreeBSD has a wrong packagesite, need to re-create database

there are a few forums out there addressing this, and they may be able to help

Just to clarify, in the guide the reason I install everything through the shell rather than with the plugins is for 2 reasons.
1. the plugins are not maintained and updated nearly as regular as the freebsd packages.
2. there is no radarr plugin, so your only option is to install the freebsd package through the command line.

I know the troubleshooting can be tedious, but just keep trying. Once everything works right it is a glorious thing.
I hope this is helpful, let us know how it goes.

Check this out,
If install sabnzbd plus in a fresh jail, I get the same output, however it automatically asks if I want to do pkg upgrade. Naturally my answer is yes, but I did no, and then ran the pkg upgrade command, then pkg install sabnzbdplus. No problem at all. So do you get asked if you want to upgrade when you try to install sabnzbd, or does it just give up?

I hope this is helpful

TO START SABNZBD ON BOOT:
# sysrc sabnzbd_enable=YES

START MANUALLY:
# service sabnzbd start

I have identified the problem in my first post; It was me :')
FreeNAS doesn't play well with Virtualbox, you need some very specific settings in Oracles VM.
It was causing some DNS hickups, which in turn made the repository unreachable.
Ive sorted this problem out now, and im in the process of installing sabnzbdplus manually as we speak.
Im hung up on the "Change the host line to host = 0.0.0.0" part simply because I cant find it in nano though.

So when you get into the config file with nano just hit the down arrow until you get to the right line. It's in here and you have to go down quite a bit.

Type ctrl+shift+x
It will ask you if you want to save changes

Type Y

Now hit enter, and it will save the file. At this point you should be able to access sab through the browser by typing in the jail ip address:8080.

I hope this gets you there buddy.

That is absolutely terrific tech support, thank you kindly, salsacalientemuy!
Runs error free right out the gate! :D

My pleasure, happy that I could help!

Thanks for this insanely obscure note. I had updated my sabnzbd jail recently and broke it. I abandoned any attempt to fix it figuring that a fresh install would work like a charm. NOPE. Luckily I found this little gem. I changed the "host" entry in the sabnzbd.ini file to 0.0.0.0 as described above (which was located at /usr/local/sabnzbd for my install) and I'm all good!

Thanks guys!
