"Quit" isn't working, "pkill deluge" isn't working

Post by DSpider »

I just can't get Deluge to shut down !

I even tried:

Code: Select all

top
k
PID to kill: 1686
Kill PID 1686 with signal [15]: y
What is going on ?

I'm using Arch Linux, btw. Maybe I don't have authority or something... I've recently encountered an authority issue after updating udisks.

Seeing you're using arch, I'm assuming you're using Deluge 1.3.2?

Are you running deluge in classic mode or as a thin client?

If you run deluge with:

Code: Select all

deluge -L debug
Does it display anything when you try to quit?

Also are you trying to quit from the main window or the system tray?

pgrep and pkill needs -f to find the gtk client and you can use -9 to force it.

Code: Select all

pgrep -fl deluge
pkill -f -9 deluge
