Configuration files exist, but not loading

Post by XeonNAS »

I have Deluge installed in a jail under FreeBSD, all runs well.

Default unpriviledged user it is running under is "deluge" so core.conf should exist in "/home/deluge/.config/deluge", which lo and behold it does:

Code: Select all

{
  "file": 1, 
  "format": 1
}{
  "info_sent": 0.0, 
  "lsd": true, 
  "max_download_speed": -1.0, 
  "send_info": false, 
  "natpmp": true, 
  "move_completed_path": "/mnt/Torrents/Completed", 
  "peer_tos": "0x00", 
  "enc_in_policy": 1, 
  "queue_new_to_top": false, 
  "ignore_limits_on_local_network": true, 
  "rate_limit_ip_overhead": true, 
  "daemon_port": 58846, 
  "torrentfiles_location": "/", 
  "max_active_limit": 20, 
  "geoip_db_location": "/usr/local/share/GeoIP/GeoIP.dat", 
  "upnp": true, 
  "utpex": true, 
  "max_active_downloading": 10, 
  "max_active_seeding": 10, 
  "allow_remote": false, 
  "outgoing_ports": [
    0, 
    0
  ], 
  "enabled_plugins": [], 
  "max_half_open_connections": 50, 
  "download_location": "/mnt/Torrents/Downloading", 
  "compact_allocation": false, 
  "max_upload_speed": -1.0, 
  "plugins_location": "/home/deluge/.config/deluge/plugins", 

etc
But....on restarting the jail, say at server boot, Deluge loads up what looks to be a default config file.

I have confirmed it appears to be running correctly under the right user and config file path:

Code: Select all

deluge  2447 14.0  4.0 206872 82576 ??  SJ    7:43PM 3:30.90 /usr/local/bin/python2.7 /usr/local/bin/deluged -c /home/deluge/.config/deluge -L error -l /var/tmp/deluged.
root    2389  0.0  0.1  12076  1676 ??  SsJ   7:43PM 0:00.00 /usr/sbin/syslogd -ss
deluge  2458  0.0  1.9 134748 39520 ??  SJ    7:43PM 0:00.68 /usr/local/bin/python2.7 /usr/local/bin/deluge-web -f -c /home/deluge/.config/deluge -L error -l /var/tmp/de
Not sure what else to try?

The usual reason to load default config would be the conf file is corrupt, wrong location, or can't read/write it. You will need to determine the problem yourself using logs.
