[SOLVED] enable default_daemon prevents webui from running

[blackwood]

For those that are having trouble finding (or don't have) the hostlist.conf file, I found that the daemon ID was also located in the "auth" file located under your deluge config directory.

For example, my install was on a 14.04 Ubuntu system. My config/install directory is /var/lib/deluge/.config/deluge

The file /var/lib/deluge/.config/deluge/auth had the line:
localclient:1234567890123456789012345678901234567890:10

I stopped the deluge-web daemon, copied the ID between the two colons(:) into web.conf, started the deluge-web daemon and connected.

Hopefully this will helps others trying to find the daemon ID when you don't have hostlist.conf file. This worked for me, hopefully it does for you.

Thanks blackwood, that did the trick for me!
