Downloads folder gets deleted after completed download gets moved

[kevindd992002]

I have the the linuxserver\deluge container setup so that it moves completed downloads to a different folder. However, every single time a download completes it does move it successfully to the destination folder but also deletes the downloads folder (/downloads/torrent) itself. This results to an "error" message in the lower right hand side of the webGUI because it cannot compute the available space. Is this normal?

Hi, and no. May you please share the options used in preferences>downloads?
I don't move the completed torrent, they all remains in the download folder however it may be a path issue.

Have you tried with a recent Deluge/libtorrent version?

[kevindd992002]

Sure. Here you go:



And here are my volumes in my docker compose file:

volumes:
- /home/kevin/appdata/deluge:/config
- /home/kevin/downloads:/downloads
- /mnt/storage/downloads_complete:/storage/downloads_complete

"/home/kevin/downloads" is in a different volume compared to that of the "/mnt/storage/downloads_complete" but still that shouldn't affect any deletion of the downloads folder. I have not tried with the Deluge\libtorrent version yet.

Any logs I can provide for us to be able to come to the bottom of this?

This thread sounds similar to your issue and includes a work around by adding a dummy file to the download folder: viewtopic.php?p=231325#p228853

Thanks for that. I will try the workaround. This should've been fixed a long time ago.
