LottaNZB errors when choosing HellaNZB config file

[Slythytove]

Trying to configure local front end mode, I specify the HellaNZB config file (/etc/hellanzb.conf) and click Apply. The following error is displayed:-
object 'lottanzb+prefs+Server' doesn't support property 'enabled'

LottaNZB 0.3.1 is installed from source on Debian Lenny. OK. HellaNZB 0.13 is installed from Debian repositories and is running when I start LottaNZB

(Cannot choose Stand Alone mode as a workaround, as this gives another error:-
Exiting: FatalError> Unable to create directory for option: HellaNZB.DEST_DIR.....)

Hi Slythytove,

seems like you're encountering a whole bunch of bugs. Sorry for that. The reason why you're unable to run LottaNZB in front-end mode is that LottaNZB is too strict when parsing HellaNZB configuration files. It only supports id, hosts, username, password, connections, antiIdle and ssl but not enabled, bindTo, skipGroupCmd and fillserver. If one of these unsupported options is specified in the configuration file, LottaNZB won't accept it. We'll make sure that this problem will be gone in LottaNZB 0.4.

I don't have an explanation for the "Unable to create directory" error message though. HellaNZB.DEST_DIR defaults to "~/Downloads". Have a look at the configuration file ~/.lottanzb/hellanzb.conf. You might need to change the value manually.

This bug is related to bug #251798. Thanks for taking the time to file this bug!

LottaNZB won't crash anymore if an unknown server option is set. Known server options like "enabled", which cannot be changed using LottaNZB so far, will be kept.

The fix will be part of the next LottaNZB version.
