I "tested" by just removing the 2.3.9 sabnzbd package and it leaves a lot of trash around in /opt/sabnzbd that isn't related. And the defaults are an admin and logs folder and the sabnzbd.ini. I think someone who's queue/history didn't get properly moved needs to tell me their setup. My guess is that they've change the values for "Administrative Folder" and/or "Log Folder" which means they could be anywhere.

I'll improve the little bit of output from the package and I think maybe I should improve and link the wiki w/ some details.

But in the end, it'll be a one time pain at least. :/

That is a good point, let me have a look.

Well, at the time of execution of post_upgrade() the files in /opt/sabnzbd/ which belong to the package should already be removed, since the actual upgrade has already been done. I think, therefore only configuration files should be left there.

I did not actually test that though, and I can't do so atm.

@mkomko: The old /opt/sabnzbd folder has everything in it, the configs and the installation. It'd be a hot mess to copy everything, I think.

On a default installation of 3.0.0, all the queue and history files are in the admin folder and it defaults to admin folder. Let me go back and install the last version and see how that is.

@fryfrog: Couldn't you just move "everything"? That's what I would expect.

@tixetsal: Can you poke around in your /opt/sabnzbd and see what file you need to move to /var/lib/sabnzbd/ to get your history to come over? It might be history1.db and some *.sab files looking at my install. I'll play around on my test nas and see if I can figure out what I've missed too. Thanks for reporting!

I just upgraded from 3.0.0 to 3.0.0-2 and like others, I had to manually fix my config file location when upgrading from 2.x to 3. I also had to manually move Sabnzbd.py in my instance. I lost all my sab history and had to overwrite the keys sab wanted me to use after install.

Is it normal to have to overwrite the key that gets generated? I'm guessing the loss of history was a problem with the upgrade script from 2.x to 3, but I was surprised to lose my history again after the 3.0.0 to 3.0.0-2 upgrade. ?

@Kr1ss: Thanks, fixed!

@nottin: @sumebrius: Because of the typo, it seems like your sabnzbd.ini should have been entirely left behind in /opt.

That's probably an error in sabnzbd.install :

mv /opt/sabnzbd/sabnzbd/ini /var/lib/sabnzbd/

should be

mv /opt/sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini /var/lib/sabnzbd/

if I'm correct. @fryfrog ?

EDIT Thank you for the quick update !
