SABnzbd Plus Upgrade Path

The older versions of SABnzbd operate on port 25914, but the SABnzbd Plus will use 25915. This can be changed of course, but was done by design to allow both versions to run for upgrade purposes.

  • Copy current Settings:
    • Copy /var/spool/sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini file to your home directory.
    • This will allow you to read the setting you might want to incorporate in the new version.
  • Copy Downloads:
    • Copy existing downloads from /var/spool/sabnzbd/incoming (whatever directory you have set) to /var/hda/files/newsgroups.
    • There is now a complete and incomplete folders for Downloads.
  • Uninstall old version:
    • Uninstall via Amahi Dashboard
    • There may be some clean up needed
      • Remove /var/spool/sabnzbd
      • You will find a backup of your settings from the uninstall at /tmp/sabnzbd.ini.bak

If all goes well, you should now have an updated SABnzbd. Upgrading to new versions will be much simpler. These instructions might require some updates, so please feel free to do so.
