nzbget-0.4.0 and nzbgetweb-1.0 released
nzbget-0.4.0 and nzbgetweb-1.0 released
The most important improvement in the new version of NZBGet is the added support for XML-RPC or JSON-RPC. Based on these protocols a web-interface was developed - NZBGetWeb. It is a separate application written in PHP, which can be installed on any web-server with PHP-support.
Other changes in NZBGet: support for UU-format in internal decoder; better handling of communication errors and bad articles; redirection of output from post-process-scripts to server’s log; displaying of accurate progress-information during par-check/repair (in web-interface); other small improvements and bug fixes.
Full ChangeLog.
----------------------------
To update from previous version:
Code:
ipkg update
ipkg upgrade nzbget
I recommend to use the updated nzbget.conf.example file. It contains new options. If you decide to keep your old config you need to change the option "decoder=yEnc" to "decode=yes".
----------------------------
About installing of web-interface.
NZBGetWeb is a PHP-application. It must be installed separately (package "nzbget" in repository does not include it).
You need to download it from NZBGet home-page, unpack to router, configure NZBGetWeb (please read README) and your web-server.
I use php-thttpd, but it has its own issues (for example due a bug in thttpd the uploading of nzb-files does not work). You may decide to use other server.
For hints on how to install web-interface on lighttpd please refer to this thread from DrChain where he explains how to install ZussaWeb for HellaNzb. The installation of NZBGetWeb is very same (in fact NZBGetWeb is based on ZussaWeb). You should skip a part about fixing of a bug in "functions.php" as it is already fixed in NZBGetWeb.
