What link do you get? Sometimes the update-routine does not work that well, I always prefer to do a manual update.

Its worked perfectly up to now and this is only the second time i have had a hitch. Link is

This part is not correct:

That commit does not exist, so you get the error message. Try a manual update in order to update to the correct and current tag:
Quote:96be9b14d6b93fa31756196fc4b057a0bce31bc1

After that, the update routine should work again. The problem seems to be, that the current version of yours is not being recognized properly.

Thanks.

I take it i just download the archive from git and overwrite ? been a while since i manually updatedSmile

All sorted. Just did a fresh git pull then copied my config and database over.

HenryFord Wrote:Yeah, this would be a way, but it's far to complicated Wink
If you want to run the "start" command in a hidden-window, that is not a problem at all (the primary console-window from the bat-file won't open). Just change the command to:
Code:
start /wait /b 'path to sickbeard-pp-script (the exe)'
This way - if you would run the bat-file manually - it would pop up only one window. Sabnzbd hides the first window that will pop up if you run the script, so you shouldn't see any of it.

It *should* exit by itself, but sometimes sab has a problem with that (or rather windows, but that is not the point here...) and the script hangs in the background and the download gets never finished by sab. You could use "exit" at the end of file... if it still hangs in the background (just check in the taskmanager after you downloaded something with sab) use "exit /b".

you wouldnt happen to know which file actually handles the post processing, do you? looking through the folders but im not sure which one it is

It should be "sabToSickBeard.exe", and normally it is located in "AutoProcess TV"-subfolder of sickbeard.

I thought sabtosickbeard was something else. In fact the scan and process in sickbeard configuration says do not use scan and process if I'm using sabtosickbeard with sabnzbd.

Anyone having issues with SickBeard not finding these shows?

Police Women of Cincinnati
Street Customs

I check my search site for NZB files and they are named correctly but Sickbeard refuses to fetch them

Yah, there are two ways to handle it:
1. You check the options "scan and process"
2. You use the script "sabtosickbeard.exe"

If you use the first option, Sickbeard will monitor the specified path for new files to appear and then checks them.
The second option is to run a dedicated script after the download is finished. Sabnzbd will run the script after the download is finished + unpacked. This way Sickbeard has not to check wether a folder is still unpacking and it does not monitor the files. So, use the script after a download finishes and sickbeard will see it. But be aware: You _have_ to deactivate the "Scan and Process"-Option for the folder.
If you want sickbeard to monitor the specified path, the bat-script would not do any good. As for the most cases the acl-cahnges will occur before the new file got moved by sickbeard.

I hope it is clear what I mean...

So, my suggestions:
1. Create the bat-file like instructed
2. Deactivate sickbeard's "scan and process"
3. Instruct Sab to run the bat-script you created
4. Everything should be good to go.
