Unable to connect to OZnzb

Help & Support
#1

Hi,

Since the newest update, I’m unable to connect to OZNZB.

This is the error: Unable to connect to indexer, check the log for more details

The log says this:
NzbDroneErrorPipeline Invalid request Validation failed: – Unable to connect to indexer, check the log for more details 23:12
Newznab Unable to connect to indexer: Newznab error detected: Api Disabled: Newznab error detected: Api Disabled 23:12

I tried creating a new api - same error. Tried deleting and re-adding oznzb - same error.

Any ideas?

Its right there in the logs: Newznab error detected: Api Disabled: Newznab error detected: Api Disabled there is a sticky in their forums about it, sounds like they are moving the API to a new URL too.

You will need to update the URL for the indexer in Sonarr to: https://api.oznzb.com

I just set up an unRAID server for my friend and I’m having an issue with Sonarr not connecting to my indexer. When I run the test, it indicates the test is successful and increases the API request on my indexer (oznzb.com). However, when I try to search for a show, it always returns “No results” and the API key count never increases.

Any thoughts?

@Spyderturbo007 pretty sure oznzb’s API is offline at the moment.

Markus101, you are awesome! I’ve asked about 4 questions on this forum and received an answer in about 10 minutes from you each time. Bad ass!!!

Thanks! I’ll wait for them to figure out the issue on their end.

I am also experiencing this issue.

I’m needing some help with Sonarr and Oznzb.

I’m using newshosting browser as my dl client since SAb was giving me issues. I’ve installed sonarr, set it up according to the tutorial in the forum with a blackhole folder.

I’ve got my current oznzb API in for my indexer at both oznzb.com and api.oznzb.com. I’ve got the blockhole folder set up to put the nzb’s in a folder that the newshosting client automatically checks and downloads, and then it checks another folder to ensure dl happened successfully. From what i can see everything is set up correctly, but i’ve got 35 files in queue, and no nzb files have been downloaded to the target folder.

When i check the logs from Sonarr I see “OZnzb.com https://www.oznzbcom/api?t=tvsearch&ca … =1&apikey=&offset=0&limit=100 Indexer responded with html content. Site is likely blocked or unavailable.”

Is this a common issue, a setup issue, oznzb api issue (saw there was one over the weekend) or a Sonarr issue? I’m just trying to get SOMETHING to help organize my shows other than a spreadsheet and thought this might be easier once it’s up and running.

My api count on oznzb shows 23 with no downloads so it’s not due to limits or plan settings that I can tell.

Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

@jeerkahn @enesch69

Their API is currently down and they have changed the URL (when it comes back up).

Back up and running now…

I’m still receiving the an error when trying to get anything to work with Sonarr. oznzb says it’s up and working but you have to enter in the new URL. I’ve refreshed my API key with them. entered in the https://.api.oznzb.com url as the indexer and I’m still getting a warning in the logs.

OZ API https://www.api.oznzb.com/api?t=tvsearch&cat=5030,5040&extended=1&apikey=&offset=0&limit=100 The remote name could not be resolved: ‘www.api.oznzb.com’

It looks like others on the oznzb forums are having similar issues. Just making sure there’s nothing else I can configure or change to ensure everything’s working as designed.

I haven’t had a single nzb downloaded since installing sonarr (I installed it when the API was down so it could just be a coincidence but I want to make sure it’s not something else.)

#12

you need to enter https://api.oznzb.com not https://www.api.oznzb.com

#13

I’m unable to connect as well even after changing the server address. According to the OZNzb forums, the API is up. I removed my API Key from the screenshot, but did verify that it is correct.

I’m getting this error:

OZnzb.com https://api.oznzb.com/api?t=tvsearch&cat=5030,5040&extended=1&apikey=&offset=0&limit=100 Indexer responded with html content. Site is likely blocked or unavailable.

#14

This is due to a misconfiguration on OZnzb’s side. I’ll reach out to them about it.

I have responded on their announcement post on their forums, along with a few other Sonarr users.

oznzb is working now
