Spotweb searches don't work

Help & Support
1

I set up Spotweb and it was running well with Sickbeard but after the switch to NZBDrone 2 .605 I get:

Spot140 http://192.168.1.140/api?t=tvsearch&cat=5030,5040&extended=1&apikey=75df3ba9a49dc525dfdd4068a66a3afb&limit=100&rid=28416&season=3&ep=1 The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found.

…and similar anytime I search. The API key is from a user:

Anonymous user - open system, Authenticated users

What else should I do or try?

Does that URL return results if you put it in your browser?

I’ve never personally used SpotWeb and they make it hard given most of the documentation is not in English, but since it says it supports newznab and thats a valid newznab query it should work.

Its possible they don’t support tvrage id searching, so I’d try loading http://192.168.1.140/api?t=tvsearch&cat=5030,5040&extended=1&apikey=75df3ba9a49dc525dfdd4068a66a3afb&limit=100 in the browser, and if that works try replacing &rid=28416 in the URL with &q=series+title+goes+here

I get this when I try either of the two URLs (one from my post, one from your post):

Not Found
The requested URL /api was not found on this server.

http://192.168.1.140/spotweb/ is up; just checked - Spotweb’s working great. The API is current, I just checked. I gave more rights (‘administrator’) to that user; no change.

Here’s the logfile:

FetchFeedService Spot140 http://192.168.1.140/api?t=tvsearch&cat=5030,5040&extended=1&apikey=75df3ba9a49dc525dfdd4068a66a3afb&limit=100&rid=28416&season=3&ep=1 The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found. 4:39 PM

Any thoughts?

Interestingly if I change the URL to :

http://192.168.1.140/spotweb/api?t=tvsearch&cat=5030,5040&extended=1&apikey=75df3ba9a49dc525dfdd4068a66a3afb&limit=100

(note the extra SPOTWEB in there)

Then I get a full XML feed (type text…) back:

(small sample:)

…and lots of results of shows, in similar XML format…

Set the URL for the indexer to: http://192.168.1.140/spotweb/ - sicne it needs to go through spot web to get the results.

Putting /spotweb/ after the IP fixed it. Thanks for helping and pointing me in the right direction, and thanks for a great app!
