deluge GUI won't start

Post by TazgodX »

after opening the app, the icon shows in the dock, bounces a few times and then crashes.
console say:
"12/12/13 1:31:26.373 AM com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[174]: (org.deluge.17984[8327]) Exited with code: 1"

if i show package contents and open deluge that way terminal error says :
"/Applications/Deluge.app/Contents/MacOS/Deluge: line 79: /Users/XXXX//Applications/Deluge.app/Contents/MacOS/Deluge-python: No such file or directory
/Applications/Deluge.app/Contents/MacOS/Deluge: line 79: exec: /Users/XXXX//Applications/Deluge.app/Contents/MacOS/Deluge-python: cannot execute: No such file or directory"

im almost 100% sure its because its adding a second / in there after my username, but i have no idea how to remove it or why its in there.

im running MacOSX 10.9 and deluge 1.3.6

any help would be greatly appreciated.

-Thanks

Those double slashes are not likely to be the problem as it's the same as a single slash.

Have you check that `Deluge-python` is at the path specified.

hmm, interesting. I thought that was it because if i tried typing in that path it can't find it, but if I type with 1 slash it did find it.

Yes Deluge-python is there.

You could edit the file and hard-code the path in to test the theory.

Can you confirm the actual path for the application.

Is it: /Users/XXXX//Applications/Deluge.app/Contents/MacOS/Deluge-python
or this: //Applications/Deluge.app/Contents/MacOS/Deluge-python

that didn't work.
thanks for trying. any other ideas why it won't load. now it just quits almost immediately. I have no ".config/deluge" folder.

console just says
"12/22/13 4:26:24.129 PM com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[181]: (org.deluge.101760[10991]) Exited with code: 1"

You must have made a mistake with editing the file, one problem could be line endings. The folder is "~/.config/deluge", I have edited ticket to correct the mistake.
