Help me haha. I have been trying to fix this, and have looked over various forums and threads and i feel i am missing some simple and stupid but its kicking my a$$ and its annoying.
So, i first setup SONARR with utorrent and its been great. It will add the new series and seasons folders when i add them to be searched for etc, it will download them and rename and sort them into the correct show and season folders.
But, i can not get the same thing to work between SONARR and SABnzbd. I canât find a good setup example between those two that will solve my issues. I am new to setting all this up so i have been using tutorials etc but i havenât found much to help me on this topic. Any help would be great thanks
(Kind of assuming you can add Sab as a download client in sonarr and the test button reports a successâŚ)
Can sonarr send nzbâs to sab? Try with a manual search on an episode and send any available nzb, just for testing. If not, do you see errors in sonarrâs log? In sabâs log?
Do you see it downloading in sab, but itâs not visible in sonarr (Activity > Queue)? If visible, does it have a warning icon? If yes, hover over it for more information.
Settings:
In Sonarr: Settings > Download Client > Sabnzbd > category
In Sabnzbd: make sure the category name matches with whatâs in sonarr, and sorting for this category is off.
Those are the main things to watch out for as I recall when I was using Sab as a download client.
Yep sorry, It will send NZB files to download, i can see them in SAB and can see them in the activity section in SONARR. No warnings or anything.
i created a category âsonarrâ in SONARR download clients, and have the same one in SABnzbd with âtv sortingâ unchecked. It downloaded about 20 episodes last night, and it didnât rename or move anything. I am also getting files in the downlaoded folders that are all jibberish. âr9eiriwdiw9t809vd9fb8dfs09bsdâ etc.
I had the same issue where it would not rename the file.
I went into SABNZB > Catagories and I created the TV catagory but forgot to fill the in Indexer field.
But now canât get my files to sort into the episode folders.
I have a folder named TV, then under that are all the show folders, But the downloaded files goto the TV folder and are renamed, but they stay their and are not moved.
i didnât have anything in that index field either. I did try to enable tv sorting in SAB and it would rename the folder, but not the file. But regardless, i canât seem to get it to work with SONARR. The torrents do it just perfect, just canât get SAB to. i did try NZBget but couldnât even get that to work with SONARR
Nope, still having the same issues. No one on here seemed to have an answer for me yet. Been playing with it and no luck yet. Even tried NZBget and had nothing but problems. Would love get a solution to this, still hoping there is a guru on here for helping.
Does Sonarr show downloads in Activity: Queue?
Do the completed downloads still show there?
Are they still in SABâs history?
If either of the first two are are No then in order, youâre going to need to look at debug logs, if the 3rd is a no then you need to fix SAB. Sonarr relies on SABâs history to know what to import, if completed downloads are removed from history before Sonarr sees them (and imports them) then Sonarr will never import them.
If all 3 answers are yes, hover over the icon on the left to find out why they arenât importing and make sure SAB is set to +Delete for the post processing mode (unpacks and deletes the RAR files).
So yes and yes to the first 2. I did have it set to delete history retention, i have reset it to keep it for 14 days then reset. I will see if that has any efffect. Any other settings i need to check, under categories or indexers etc?
That is part of what i am not positive about. SONAR shows under NZBgeek the category of â5030, 5040â, so in SAB i made a category that says âsonarrâ and has the folder/path set to the folder i used for completed SAB download files, and i have â5030, 5040â under the âindex categories/groupsâ section., Should the rename and move be instant? Or will it do it after X amount of time? Or am i still missing something?
at least now it shows something, but just has the yellow icon and says âno files are eligible for importâ
Logs say that the path isnât valid or sonarr doesnât have permission. Is there something in SONARR that i have to tell it to look there? I have it running with admin control and full permissions
would it make a differnce if i had hte files download to the same completed folder that my torrent files go to which SONARR does move and rename?
Which OS is Sonarr running on?
A link to the Debug logs would be useful.
SAB and Sonarr are on the same machine?
Have you checked the permissions on the folders?
SONARR is on 2.0.0.5212 for Windows
SAB and SONAR are on the same machine and the folders show full access to everyone

So, tried that. I tried the UNC paths in SAB, flagged me at first but ended up doing the temp directory on my laptop with the completed download directory on my server. I used the âC:â path for the temp directory, and used the â//MWRâ server location for the downloaded folder. It created that folder etc, but SONARR is still showing the same error:
No files found are eligible for import in L:\New Downloads\SABnzbd Downloads\SABnzbd Complete\Billions.S03E12.Elmsley.Count.1080p.AMZN.WEB-DL.DDP5.1.H.264-NTb-Rakuv\
I did noticed that in my category setup for SAB i forgot to change the location from âL:â to â//â so i just did that and will see what happens. Unless there is anything else you can think of?
Iâve was having a similar issue with sonarr trying to import files that I had verified downloaded properly but the file and folder would vanish. The problem was directly related to Sabnzbd -> switches -> Direct Unpack
Jobs will start unpacking during the downloading to reduce post-processing time.
Only works for jobs that do not need repair.
Once I modified that setting I havenât had a single issue. Hope that helps
