Nice happy end and your feedback is welcome :).

About the guide well it all depends of your level, I admits some parts need background. But you can help :). Just register to the site itself and you have the ability to submit change to the documentation. The approval is done by administrators of course but maybe you can present things differently. Join the effort ;)

I'm not sure I'd want to risk messing around with it, I'm far from experienced or knowledgeable enough :oops:

I need help again. Deluge was running fine and I was using it last night. Went to look at it again just now and I was back to where I started with the server showing as red and not allowing me to connect/start the daemon - I hadn't done anything to the server.

I'm starting to get the feeling that the process wasn't running in the background for some reason so I checked and everything seemed fine. I thought maybe changing the port would work but that hasn't worked either. I stopped & started the deluged service and still nothing. Edit: I've also just restarted the server and still no luck...

I'm unsure why it crapped out now after all this time, I'm now unsure whether it was ever running in the background, and I'm now unsure how to fix it without reinstalling it again - not something I really want to have to do each time...

:/

I'll say back to the beginning:
-have you followed the systemd service wiki for deluged.service and deluge-web service?
-have you enabled the logging on deluged and deluge-web service
- output of "sudo systemctl status deluged deluge-web -l" ?
-Can you check access on the Debian with deluge-console, confirming it works? then what about the web ui and the GTK (depending your usual way)

Remote access is the second part for me, I just want to confirm the Debian server is well seeing the daemon running without issue.

- I followed both the Thin Client guide and the systemd guide
- the only thing I didn't do was enable logging
- Output of sudo systemctl status deluged deluge-web -l (I've replaced my IP address, hostname, & location with <ip>, <host>, <location>):

-I'm unsure how to check access, but ps aux | grep also shows both Deluge & Deluge-web are running. Both ThinClient & Web Client show the status as 'offline', and have both 'start local daemon' and 'connect' greyed out.

The ThinClient which is what I use with this server was running perfectly fine up until the other night and all I did was upload some files to the server after which it stopped connecting so no idea what happened this time..

Good start :).

1. Is the logging now enabled (+services restarted) in the Debian?
2. Can you install and run deluge-console on the Debian? as the wiki has been followed
if not logged as root in ssh

Code: Select all

sudo bash
launch the console as deluge user

Code: Select all

sudo -u deluge deluge-console 
3. please share the content (on the Debian)

Code: Select all

sudo cat /var/lib/deluge/.config/deluge/core.conf

Code: Select all

sudo cat /var/lib/deluge/.config/deluge/auth
4. Iptable installed? rules to open the port activated?
To test if a port is open from your Windows you can use telnet or better psping https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sys ... 2147217396. The line should be psping server:port
