[SOLVED] Cannot access systemd daemon on Arch Linux

[babelfish]

I am unable to access my Deluge server through the gtk "Thin Client" mode or through the deluge-console. Initially, I followed the guide here to set up a Deluge server with the systemd system service. I want the server to run even when I am logged out of my user account. Connecting in this way initially worked, but upon reboot, I was met with the error "Password does not match." This error is present when attempting to connect to the "localclient@127.0.0.1:58846" daemon. I have tried copying the localclient password from the "auth" file in "~/.config/deluge/auth" and "/srv/deluge/.config/deluge/auth." Neither allow me to access the daemon.

I am aware that the default deluge config location is supposed to be located in "/var/lib/deluge," but "/srv/deluge" is the location systemd created when I ran

Code: Select all

sudo systemctl enable --now deluged

Do I have to change this directory manually? My user is added to the "deluge" group as well. Overall, there's a lot of conflicting steps between the Arch Wiki guide and the Deluge docs so I'm not sure which to follow. Thanks in advance!

It appears that the passwords that needed to match were the ones located in each auth file. The auth file in ~/.config/deluge/ was generated by deluge-gtk, and the one in /srv/deluge/.config/deluge/ was generated by the systemd service. Once the systemd auth password was changed to the same as the deluge-gtk one, the daemon connected. This did not work vice versa. I also added my user to the "deluge" group with

Code: Select all

sudo usermod -aG deluge babelfish

I logged back in to make this change. Initially, the deluge-gtk showed "ERROR" where my ssd's storage was normally outputted, but when I added a torrent, it started downloading and showed the correct space. This error returned when I tried to change the download directory from "/srv/deluge/.config/deluge/Downloads." I'm not sure if there's a way to change this without error, but since everything else is working, I'll leave it be. I was able to change the directory that completed files are moved to. If anyone knows what the reason for that might be please feel free to reach out.
