@fryfrog, in truth, I don't want to run it as a service or daemon, I just want it to launch it by running sabnzbd from the terminal and associate my nzb files with that.

I also can't find the guide i followed to create these services. I just removed them.

@async: It isn't in /opt/sabnzbd anymore. What ever you're doing that is looking for it there, just change it to /usr/lib/sabnzbd. Or you're welcome to download the full package, step back to 2.3.9 which is in /opt and then re-implement the few needed items to make it work with python3.

It'd also help if you provided more details, like what are you trying to run that even does that? What "very different" way are you trying to use sabnzbd? I would say most people run it as a daemon. A few people run it as their own sabnzbd@ user service and I think one person has said they run it by literally running it.

I really don't mean to sound ungrateful, I appeciate all of the hard work fryfrog has put in here, but this package seems to constantly break and is configured in a super opinionated way that is very different from how others use the application. I just spent the last two hours trying to get it to work after the recent updates, and I'm still stuck on:

Unrecoverable error in the server. Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/sabnzbd/cherrypy/_cpwsgi.py", line 189, in trap File "/opt/sabnzbd/cherrypy/_cpwsgi.py", line 105, in call File "/opt/sabnzbd/cherrypy/_cpwsgi.py", line 438, in tail File "/opt/sabnzbd/cherrypy/_cpwsgi.py", line 244, in init File "/opt/sabnzbd/cherrypy/_cpwsgi.py", line 323, in run File "/opt/sabnzbd/cherrypy/_cptree.py", line 134, in get_serving File "/opt/sabnzbd/cherrypy/process/wspbus.py", line 225, in publish ChannelFailures: OperationalError('unable to open database file',)

Would anyone be willing to create a more neutral and stable package?

@francoism90: I've rebooted a bunch of times (been running 3.0.0 since alpha w/ basically this PKGBUILD), it never fixes via sysusers.

@tixetsal: Yeah, having folder/config not in /opt would just be totally ignored. But you could by hand put the things in the right place and it'd be fine.

@fryfrog Yeah, you cannot do this when running. I don't know if the user is updated on reboot.

You could adding a simple stop command, but I should just warn people if possible. Thanks for the upgrade btw. :)

FYI, I was one of the folks who reported losing history and moving things manually, but in answer to your question: I DID have my oldnzbs folder in a non-standard location. I just ran the latest upgrade, and all my history was retained and everything worked well!

fryfrog commented on 2020-08-09 15:36 (UTC)

Mine was still set to /opt/sabnzbd, so I got to test it. You can't change it while running, so I think most will get the error and be told to do it themselves after stopping.

$ cat /etc/passwd | grep sab
sabnzbd:x:977:977:SABnzbd user:/opt/sabnzbd:/sbin/nologin

I think you indeed need to run usermod as well.

@mhicklen: Can you confirm the user's homedir isn't getting changed? The package is using sabnzbd.sysusers, so I'd think that would override?

fryfrog commented on 2020-08-09 06:00 (UTC)

@francoism90: That is a good idea, I switched to cp to get the folders to /var/lib/sabnzbd and then just added .saved to the files/folders left in /opt. That way they can't accidentally overwrite the new files in /var/lib/sabnzbd and anything running from /opt/sabnzbd will stop working still.
