Delete canceled files/nzb

Post by fwyh » 09 Oct 2008, 13:04

Hello!

I compiled nzbget for Lenny on my Buffalo Linkstation and it works great! (I used to have hellanzb doing the job)

One little thing is missing: the files (in the destination directory) and nzbs (*.nzb.queued) are not deleted when I cancel a download through nzbgetweb.
The option in nzbget.conf allowing the cleaning up of nzb is set to yes though.

Is it implemented or did I miss something?


Best regards

I'm using latest stable, and by the way, completed nzb files (*.nzb.processed) files are not removed either.

For now, I'm using a script via cron which cleans the files/folders, but it would be great for this to be done by nzbget!

That's not implemented. Nzbget never deletes files from destination directory.
I could rework that, but is it really so important? ;)

With option "NzbCleanupDisk" nzbget deletes nzb-file only after successful download and par-check. If par-check is disables or failed, the file remains.

You can delete nzb-files from post-processing script instead of doing it via cron.

Hi

It's not that important, but if you get some spare time to implement automatic deletion of canceled files, it would be great! =)

Actually, I have the whole nzb search and download automated, then sometimes the queue can be filled with junk.
Then, I have to delete downloads myself, sad ;).

Thank you for your great work!

I was wondering why you need to delete downloads so often. Now I see :).
I'll add the automatic deletion.

Great news!

About nzb files, In my case these files are not removed when the download is finished, par-checked, and post processed; the option is enabled is the conf file.

Enough complaining!
I found the option wich pauses the server when par-checking or post-processing wonderful!
The NAS is downloading so fast now (~1MB/s with 20 connections, instead of ~300KB/s with hellanzb)

Nice software =)

Implemented in revision 238 (subversion).
New option DeleteCleanupDisk:
nzbget.conf wrote: # Delete already downloaded files from disk, if the download of nzb-file was
# cancelled (nzb-file was deleted from queue) (yes, no).
# NOTE: nzbget does not delete files in a case if all remaining files in
# queue are par-files. That prevents the accidential deletetion if the option
# <ParCleanupQueue> is disabled or if the program was interrupted during
# parcheck and later restarted without reloading of post queue (option
# <ReloadPostQueue> disabled).
DeleteCleanupDisk=yes
