oh bum
Wheyy, upgrade successful!
1. Get the Linux release of SABnzbd+ from their website
2. Replace /usr/local/bin/SABnzbd.py with the one from SABnzbd-0.4.8-src.tar.gz
3. Replace /usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/sabnzbd/* with the files from the "SABnzbd-0.4.8-src.tar.gz\sabnzbd" making sure you delete the existing files first
4. Replace /usr/local/share/sabnzbdplus/interfaces/* with the files from "SABnzbd-0.4.8-src.tar.gz\interfaces" making sure you delete the existing files first
Done.

Might make it my little project during Easter to swap my download server over to FreeNAS from Windows. SABnzbd+, FTP and HTTP are so much faster under a Linux based OS.
SABnzbd+ all working perfectly on 0.4.8 with correct directories (/mnt/disk1/usenet/complete, /mnt/disk1/usenet/incomplete etc.).
Is there any way to make it so Transmission downloads files into a temporary folder and then moves them to a 'complete' folder when done?
Also, I'm currently setting all this up under VMWare to make sure it's suitable for my needs before I actually deploy. If I then install FreeNAS on my server will I simply be able to restore the configuration file from my VMWare machine to the main machine?
[Edit]
Having some troubles with Transmission - just doing a small test torrent in it and it keeps crashing after the torrent gets started for some reason. All settings are default apart from the download location which is /mnt/disk1/torrents/complete

im abit drunky wunky now lol. will process your posts tommorrow when i return from london. ty so much for sharing with me!!!
FReeNAS is awesome!!
EDIT: for trasmission make sure your download directory as the right permsissions. Maybe the error is something to do with you launching it in root???? who is the owner of transmission????? it loooks like root if its 999.

Your spelling really is crap when you're drunk
I will see if some permission changes fix Transmission
Let me know how you get on with SABnzbd 0.4.8
hehe, going to attempt it tommorrow morning.
Did you manage to get the bash scripty thing to start sabnzbd working?
Yep, bash script is working perfectly. I literally just stuck it in /bin/ and ran it with "/bin/sab.sh start" - going to figure out how to auto start it later
Also, Transmission is working perfectly after changing the permissions on the download folder, thanks very much
[Edit]
Autostart working.
System > Advanced > Command Scripts > + > Command: /bin/sab.sh start - Type: PostInit
It's a shame the web interface doesn't allow you to assign folders to URLs on the Web Server section (virtual directories).

yay fixed it, just moved the interfaces folder to where it was complaining about, now it launches in 0.4.8.
Now to work out how to get the autostart script to work.
EDIT: Now getting this -
This obviously is because sudo isn't installed, what does your start upscript contain craig?
are you running sabnzbd under root? or did you create a user specifically for sabnzbd, if you did what permission did you give it?
im so close :S

Hi Guys,
I am having major league headaches getting SABnzbd to run on my FreeNAS box. Is there any chance you could help me through it please?
the latest problem I am having is running this line
3) first ran it from command line ... /usr/local/bin/SABnzbd.py
I am getting Command not found, even though SABnzbd.py can be seen using ls -l
I think I have installed the package ok, although i did have to copy SABnzbd.py over to the usr/local/bin directory as it didn't seem to copy this bit across
I could just be tring to run it wrong, i have zero experience of all this Python FreeBSD malarky
any help would be a life saver
regards
Murt

Awesome,
I have now got it up and running. A couple of things to note. I had to SSH in using putty to untar.
then make sure to reboot the server.
I then had to start the SABnzbd.py script from the server itself, not using the SSH from another PC.
I have no idea why this was
trial and error on a massive scale.
My NEW QUESTION
how do I 'reference' the download directory. Currently it is saving articles in root???

I assume by reference u mean change?
is all on the web interface.
http://192.168.0.7:8080/sabnzbd
then its something liek >config > something or other.
I'll check my server tommorrow, proper tired now
It should now look something like this. Put my comments in RED
Overbyrn's instructions:-
0) Putty into server as root, make sure you set this in FreeNAS under services, SSH. tick enable, tick permit root login
1) Untar file to a temp folder on freenas. eg. tar zxvf sabnzb0.4.3.tar (Do this from Putty) yuo need to put these files somewhere with plenty of space for unzipping, I created a directory within my main CIFS/SMB share. File manager in Freenas is your friend here. double click the permissions and set them all to ticks, permission for everyone basically.
2) pkg_add -v sabnzbdplus-0.4.3.tbz (Do this from Putty)
2.5) Reboot Server
3) first ran it from command line ... /usr/local/bin/SABnzbd.py (Do this from your server box, I couldn't run it through Putty)
4) cntrl-c to exit.
5) it created a /root/.sabnzbd dir
6) edited /root/.sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini (I did this by moving the file, to my CIFS share, editing in windows and using FREEnas file manger to put the completed file back in the /root/.sabnzbd dir
7) changed from localhost to 192.168.0.22 (I set this to my Freenas server IP, 192.168.1.40. I had set this to static to stop it moving around after a boot)
8) re-ran as in step 3)
9) went to http://192.168.0.22:8080/sabnzbd/ You may have to set the port to something else, I used 8082
10) configured to my liking
I need to do this bit next
11) created script as below to stop / start as a daemon process...
#! /bin/sh
case "$1" in
start)
echo "Starting SABnzbd."
/usr/bin/sudo -u sabuser -H /usr/local/src/SABnzbd/SABnzbd.py -d -f /root/.sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini
;;
stop)
echo "Shutting down SABnzbd."
/usr/bin/fetch "http://192.168.0.22:8080/sabnzbd/api?mode=shutdown" > /dev/null
;;
*)
echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop}"
exit 1
esac
exit 0
12) noticed in console logging external binary unzip missing...
2008-09-23 20:14:32,166::ERROR::unzip binary... NOT found!
13) did pkg_add -rv unzip. this installed unzip into /usr/local/bin
14) restarted sabnzbd using script... /root/sab.sh start
15) checked "connections" tab - no sign of missing unzip.
Used this sabnzbd wiki link for reference ... http://sabnzbd.wikidot.com/start
made and uploaded a newer version of the zip containing v0.4.3 build of sabnzbplus.

Just trying FreeNAS out for my first NAS and dive into Linux and struggling a bit!
It's installed all fine, full install so I can install packages. Got drives mounted and shared but installing packages just isn't happening!
I'm after sabnzbd and ps3mediaserver but at the moment neither of them work. I'm running FreeNAS 7.2 if it helps. Where's best to get the SAB and PSM files from as the instructions above for SAB give me an error on the SABnzbd.py command
I'm tempted to delete all packages and start again but ideally need a run through of working SAB and PSM on FreeNAS 7.2 if anyone can help!
