@baumeimo, you don't need to run the service as your user in order to use binaries installed on the system. And there's a reason the override warning is at the top of the service file.

# Be sure to use `systemctl edit radarr` to modify this service with an override.conf because
# direct changes will be overwritten by package updates.

Edit: hahaha, it says "radarr" :P

I had the following log problem:

WARNING::[SABnzbd:472] 7za binary... NOT found!

  • Install: sudo pacman -S p7zip
  • open: sudo systemctl edit --full sabnzbd.service
  • comment out: #User=sabnzbd
  • insert: User=<enter your user>
  • after that: sudo systemctl daemon-reload
  • sudo systemctl restart sabnzbd.service
  • sudo systemctl status sabnzbd.service

the error message has disappeared for me, sab is now also running under the user where 7za is to be expected.

Tip: create an override file for ‘sabnzbd.service’

So that not everything is shot during the update and you have to search for errors.

Using yay to reinstall sabctools and selecting cleanbuild did it for me.

I did as you suggested and it resolved that error. I am a noob and didn’t know what you meant at first.

Here’s the command I ran to rebuild the library (I only rebuilt this one):

  • pamac build python-sabctools

After 20 minutes of waiting and the page still not loading, I remembered to do the following:

  • Update the sabnzbd.ini file. The host property was set to 127.0.0.1

Once I updated that and restarted the service, the page finally loaded.

By the way, all my configs are missing. I’ll need to work on this next👍🏼

I would not be surprised if you just need to rebuild python-sabctools and python-sabyenc3 and any other aur python packages.

I tried updating today and got the same error: Missing module: sabctools

I ran the find command: sudo find / | grep -i sabctools

It returned the following path: /usr/lib/python3.12/site-packages/sabctools

I don’t know what to do now 🤷‍♂️

I just updated to v4.4.1 this week. It works fine. Did you try to install sabctools manually?

Not working anymore: Feb 14 19:40:07 wolf-desktop sabnzbd[36573]: Missing module: sabctools

It took me a while to find out why I can't access :8080... the host is set to 127.0.0.1.

sudo systemctl daemon-reload sudo systemctl enable --now sabnzbd sudo sed -i 's/^host = 127.0.0.1/host = 0.0.0.0/' /var/lib/sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini

@UbiquitousPhoton: I don't know why it works, but I can git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/sabnzbd-desktop.git even though there is no aur package. I had it local still and zipped it up, then thought... why not push it, but it wouldn't push. So I tried cloning it w/ ssh and it worked. Then w/ https and it also worked.
