web ui: can't add connection to server

The web UI comes up OK but when I go to the connection manager and try to add a connection, clicking the add button does nothing (no message, doesn't go away, no feedback whatsoever). Using chrome's dev tools I can see the auth response and base64 decoded it as follows:

{"id": 9, "result": null, "error": {"message": "Not authenticated", "code": 1}}

The "auth" file has the user name and password I'm entering so I'm not sure what the issue is.

Primary question: how can I get it to authenticate? Secondary: why doesn't the web UI give me any feedback about the error?

Running 1.3.15 on Windows btw.

Hi,

Have you tried with another browser or in a private windows?
Have you enabled the remote connection in core.conf (+ daemon restart) and tried with the GTK ui?
As Deluge can run with multiple profile are you sure you added the user/password in the correct profile?

Yes to another browser. Yes to remote connection (I normally use the windows client on another machine). No I don't have multiple profiles.

how do you start the webinterface? Via the embedded plugin or you set a service?
(Maybe a permission issue)

Reviving my request. I'd really like to get the webui interface working because I'd like to copy listed torrents to my clipboard and the normal interface doesn't have a way to do that. The webui loads in my browser but when I try to add a connection to the server, the http response returned by the webui server is as I mentioned in the first post.

Sorry don't know, but start the daemons manually, or deluge if using plugin as you stated, with debug logging(check faq on homepage).

Didn't realize the plugin was unnecessary. I disabled that and followed your advice, but the logging (at debug level) isn't helpful. It reports the request and outputs the json parameters sent, but that's it. Thanks for the suggestion though!
