Can't connect indexers

Help & Support
1

Hello,

I’m new to usenet and have been trying to setup Sonarr for a few days. I’ve gotten NZBGet and Couchpotato to work but I can’t get any indexer to connect with Sonnar. I’ve tried dognzb, oznzb, womble, etc. Everything just gives a message that says it can’t connect. Here is the last log file from when I tried to connect with dognzb, though they all seem to say the same thing:

I’ve been trying to get this to work for several days and any help at all is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Check for a proxy, if there isn’t one configured in Internet Explorer the cause is likely malware.

There are a number of other threads that users had the same issue and at least one confirmed instance of malware:

Thanks markus101.

I read the other threads you linked. I had already seen a few from searching before I posted. I’ve tried everything I can think of or have read. Full malware/virus scans, no proxy is setup in Internet Explorer, etc. I’m admittedly a noob, but I don’t know what else to do. I would really love to get this working because I’ve read it’s way better than the alternatives. Do you know anything else I can try?

Thanks.

Can you connect to those sites in Internet Explorer?

5

Yes. Still same issue though.

6

You can connect in IE but it fails in Sonarr still? Sonarr and IE use the same networking stack, so it should either work in both or fail in both. Have you tried restarting Sonarr/the computer?

7

I misunderstood. No, it doesn’t work in IE. I’ve tried restarting both as well as reinstalling sonarr more than once.
