Deluge won't start

Post by w00tmuh00t »

I'm kinda new to Linux so bear with me please.

Had a issue with deluge (wouldn't start) so I tried purging and delete the .config file to start from scratch. All i did before was change the password and add a few plugins and add a user to the auth file. It broke after that... not really sure why?
When trying to start deluge now it won't re-create the ~/.config/deluge files.

Now when I tried reinstalling (Tried both headless install and PPA repo) the Daemon gives me the following error:

Code: Select all

sudo systemctl status deluged

can you post the log of the daemon (preferred in debug level)?
it's located under ~/.config/deluge/deluged.log

I don't have that folder so I can't post a deluged.log

under which user does deluged runs when you use the systemd service?
if it's a system user, try to look for the log under /var/lib/<user_name>/.config/deluge/deluged.log
if it's a regular user, try to look for the log under that user's home dir (usually /home/<user_name>/.config/deluge/deluged.log

Also, the .config folder is hidden by default.
