Same here. It updates itself and this problem started after an update probably, as nothing else has been changed:

Fixed in the latest update

You need to update manually, https://github.com/SickRage/sickrage.github.io#before-you-open-an-issue

@Keou0007 Were you able to fix it too?

[Keou0007]

I changed back to origin/master and pulled, but no changes came down. So no fix.

[sharkykh]

Sorry, I didn't see that you were already on the latest commit.

What torrent/nzb client are you using?

[Keou0007]

sabnzbdplus 2.0.0RC2 from the ubuntu repo

[sharkykh]

Open your config.ini, and look for: torrent_host, what's the value?

[Keou0007]

http:///

I changed it to http:// but still got the same error

[sharkykh]

That's what's causing the problem.
To fix it, shut down SR and change the value to "" (two quotes).
Then try running SR again

[Keou0007]

yup that's fixed it
