Can't Connect with SAB all the sudden - session key issue?

[mastererrob]

**Sonarr Ver. 2.0.0.5252:

Sonarr is failing to connect to Sabnzbd - it has been connected for some time without issues.

Looking at the logs, it’s failing on some api get…however nothing’s changed and the api key is accurate?

I can even visit the API address in the log…

…but pasting in my api key…and it routes me to Sabnzbd but has shown an error.

Error: Session Key Incorrect 192.168.178.35>Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_14_2) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/73.0.3671.0 Safari/537.36

Confused by what to do for the fix here…it seems to be pointing to a session key?

If the issue has been resolved, what was the solution?

Looks like the session key error came from a browser given the User Agent SAB logged.

Thanks, yes I flagged that this was resolved.

Chalk it up to those lovely unknown fixes.

I of course rebooted the machine as a first troubleshooting step…which yielded no results.

After another reboot, and going back to check the fields, I had a NEW field for - I forget exactly what it was, “pathway” … or “string” … for the API … where I had to put sabnzbd and that weird other string was which I have no idea how it got there.

The strange thing is, that field did not show prior…it was right above API key
