hello, I am trying to setup NZBDrone and NZBGet, I have created the download client NZBGet but everytime I run a test it fails. See below for log. Please help. Thanks!

Does the category exist (its case sensitive).?

Thanks for your reply.
I have no idea where i’m looking, i’m guessing the category is on a M drive?

Where do I change it or look to change it?

Under download clients where you added Nzbget, click it. Then you will see a “category”. That “category” MUST exists under nzbGet’s Settings -> Categories as the “name” field. This is a lot of times case sensitive so copy it exactly.

M:\ refers to our build server (because drone is written in C# and compiled it lists the drive on our build server in the stack traces), in this case that information is just noise as the error is explained in the first line of the message.

In develop we have made the test result errors display, so it is much more obvious what the issue is.

NZBGet is case sensitive so when you set up your categories makes ur the casing is exactly the same or you will get a constant fail… i had this issue also double check your port and you should be fine after a restart on NZBGet
