That Connection refused error on 127.0.0.1:8080 is typically because the two apps are in separate Docker containers and can't reach each other on localhost.\n\nBefore we dig deeper: are you running these in SparkBox, or in standalone Docker on your NAS?\n\nIf it's SparkBox, SABnzbd should be reachable from Prowlarr at http://sb-sabnzbd:8080 (not localhost). The same applies to any arr app — they all live on the same internal network (sbproxy) and communicate by container name.\n\nIf it's standalone Docker, you'll need to make sure both containers are on the same custom Docker network (not the default bridge). Try: docker network ls to see what networks exist, then check which one has both containers — reply with those results.\n\nLet me know which setup you have and what the network check shows, and we can walk through the right connection string or network fix.

Thanks for confirming. Connection-refused usually happens when Prowlarr can't reach SABnzbd's container name. In SparkBox, use http://sb-sabnzbd:8080 (not localhost). First: what's your SparkBox version? Run sparkbox -v. There was a fix in v1.6.679 for SABnzbd category creation issues.
