Hello

I've a certain old NZB-file made by the original poster.
SABnzbd (with Easynews-server) downloaded the content successfully.

At Easynews' webside (web-based search browser) I cannot find the same content.
The files are incomplete.... although its server has the complete files.
Support cannot give me a satisfactory answer.

Can someone give me a plausible explanation ....?
Thank you.

Search engines aren't infallible. They miss or omit things for myriad of reasons. Maybe they weren't set to parse or index that particular group? Perhaps there was a hiccup or delay with the headers at the time it was cataloging the content you mentioned? Shit happens.

A fairly high number of times, when using nzbindex or binsearch, or checking propagation on a server or two, I'll run into where it 'reports' certain blocks missing, or an entire posting missing. I'll re-run the EXACT same query, and come up with different results. I'll transfer the thing from the original nzb (which is why I always ask folks having problems, did you use a nzb generated from a search site OR the original posted nzb?) and zero errors.

Bad programming, or bad programming on top of flaky database, take your pick. Then again, maybe it's 'flaky' on purpose...

Hello

The answer-posts arrived in my mailbox yesterday 22.02.2014 .. 19 days after! Why?
I live in Germany.

The NZB-file is original. It belongs to the "uncomplete files".
