Hi,
I've prepared RPMs for Fedora 11,12 and 13. You can find them here: http://hansvon.homelinux.org/SABnzbd/
There is a SABnzbd.repo file that you can put into your /etc/yum.repos.d/ if you want to get updates automatically.
The RPM requires unrar which is not available in the official Fedora repositories. You can find it in RPM Fusion: http://rpmfusion.org/ .
Once installed, you can start SABnzbd with SABnzbd in a terminal or in the menu (Internet->SABnzbd).
The RPM also installs a service (init.d) but does not start it by defaut. If you want to run SABnzbd as a service executed as user $sabuser, you need to
- (as root) define the sabuser variable in /etc/sysconfig/SABnzbd
- (as $sabuser) run SABnzbd once to have a configuration file (the service checks that /home/$sabuser/.sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini exists). Don't forget to shutdown SABnzbd when done.
- (as root) try to start the service, see if it's running: "service SABnzbd start", "service SABnzbd status", try to access the web interface, "ps -fu $sabuser | grep SABnzbd", etc…
- (as root) if the third step works: "chkconfig —levels 345 SABnzbd on", to have SABnzbd started in run levels 3,4, and 5 when your computer starts
For me (Fedora 13), it's working great, but tell me if you find something wrong.
