I ran into some problems with the script, because it wasn't able to shutdown sabnzbd. After a pretty long search I found out it was my python version (2.6) that caused the problems. If you are experiencing the same issue, try this:

#! /bin/bash

## CONFIG ##
USERNAME="yourname"
HOST="localhost"
PORT="8080"
## / CONFIG ##

case "$1" in
start)
echo "Starting SABnzbd."
sudo -u $USERNAME -H python2.5 /usr/share/sabnzbd/SABnzbd.py -f /home/$USERNAME/.sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini --browser 0 -d
;;
stop)
echo "Shutting down SABnzbd."
wget -q -O /dev/null http://$HOST:$PORT/sabnzbd/shutdown
;;
*)
echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop}"
exit 1
esac

exit 0

Note the python2.5!

Can someone help me please?
Sabnzbd does not seem to do anything at all, except loading, but no web interface at all.

I used the 0.4.9 package from http://www.mbastiaan.nl/sabnzbd.php and also the sh-script.
Before that I tried the package which is availiable from within Kubuntu, and removed it before I tried the .deb from http://www.mbastiaan.nl/sabnzbd.php because that did not work either.

Everytime I keep getting an error when I try to load http://localhost:8080/sabnzbd
Don't know the real English translation, sorry.
In Dutch Konqueror keeps saying:
De gevraagde handeling kon niet worden voltooid
Verbinding met de server geweigerd

~/.sabnzbd/logs/cherrypy.log reads:
HTTP INFO Serving HTTP on http://localhost:8080/
which seems OK to me

~/.sabnzbd/logs/sabnzbd.log reads no errors

Edit:
For now the problem is solved.
Replaced Kubuntu Jaunty with Ubuntu Jaunty and everything is working perfectly
Thanks for the help

I installed from the home page for SABnzbd. So will I need to put my user name in or is all of hat taken care of? I will still need a newsreader and a news client correct or am I incorrect in my thinking?

So is this no longer being hosted?

edit: nevermind I see there are pretty easy terminal instructions on sabnzbd homepage now.

sabnzbdplus seems to be giving me issues . How do I completely remove it so that I can start fresh?
