Deluge Forum

Hi folks. First off I really like how this program can be setup. I am using it on an kubuntu server, running the daemon and controlling it through windows deluge program. Pretty slick.

I'm in the process of adding all the torrents I have downloaded. I added them all in paused, so I could do a recheck and avoid downloading.

I have searched around for an answer to my question, but haven't really found an answer.

I pick a torrent, and tell it to recheck. It goes into "downloading" but doesn't actually do anything.
I tell the torrent to resume, and it starts downloading. If I tell it to recheck AFTER it is actually downloading (I see a download rate appear) it will stop the torrent, and do the recheck, then start seeding.

This seems to be kind of a strange behavior. It also prevents me from rechecking torrents where I am the only seed... It will go into "downloading" when I unpause, but never downloads and will not recheck. I did select all torrents and turned of auto managed, just in case that was messing me up.

What am I doing wrong???

Thanks!

Hi

Do you have the last version of Deluge/libtorrent (PPA repo)? On my setup it works as you expect:
- add torrent in pause state
- force recheck move the torrent to a "recheck" section (or similar name)
- When done the torrent goes back to "paused" section (its previous state) and I can resume it

I have deluge 1.3.15 (both client and server).

apt doesn't show any packages that need to be updated. I did add the PPA repository, and there's one line that gives me a 404 error.

Is the PPA repo version according to your Ubuntu version?
Which line?

Libtorrent version? Don't know if it's matter but better check it.

I'm not sure what changed, but I removed and reinstalled the deluge daemon and now it's working as expected.
