5.6.0 crashing on Gutsy

[craigyjack]

I just installed 5.6.0 after having used 5.5, and Deluge will not open. It crashes about half a second after I run the program. I am running Ubuntu 7.10. 5.5 worked like a charm, and now 5.6 wont work at all

We have a FAQ for a reason.

[craigyjack]

Wow. Thanks for being such an asshole. I read the FAQ, and this is the only this similiar to my problem:

Deluge won't start anymore. What do I do?

Sometimes, the configuration files might get corrupted. In Linux, you can do this by typing `rm ~/.config/deluge/*` in a command prompt. In Windows, you can do this by removing the %AppData%\Deluge folder.

What is %AppData%?
On Windows Vista/XP/2000, it's usually C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\Application Data\

And that doesn't say anything about upgrading, just config files corrupting and how was I to know if that was the problem. I'd rather keep my configs if that isnt the problem, hence why i came to the SUPPORT forum! This is supposed to be were you can help people that have problems with your program, but instead you decided to be an asshole about it.

I don't what "terminate called after throwing an instance of 'libtorrent::invalid_handle'
what(): invalid torrent handle used" means and how to fix that problem. BUt instead of helping me, you were an ass.

But that's okay, because I am going to go use Transmission now, and you can continue being an asshole developer for a torrent client i will no longer use anymore.

ps. you might want to change the name of this forum, unless support means something different than i thought.

I get the exact same problem, even with 0.5.6.1:

$ deluge --version

I will try clearing my personal files like the FAQ says.

I guess it worked, but it deleted all of my torrents.

sigh. thanks. i'll pull 0.5.6.1 until it's really fixed. i cant reproduce th is problem, so if you can, hop onto our irc channel and help us track this down

[brettalton]

Um, 0.5.6.1 also seems to have problems shutting down. It freezes at:

Unfortunately, I'm on my girlfriend's computer and she's on my ass to download torrents so I downgraded to 0.5.4.1 in the Gutsy repositories and everything is working fine. I'll be able to help you tomorrow when I'm in my office.

Also note though, that I ran "rm ~/.config/deluge/*" and NOT "rm ~/.config/deluge/persistent.state" like you said to in a different thread. But the upgrade from 0.5.6 to 0.5.6.1 did not fix it, no.

I've just had a similar error:

Code: Select all

$ deluge 
no existing Deluge session
Starting new Deluge session...
deluge_core; using libtorrent 0.13.0.0. Compiled with NDEBUG.
Applying preferences
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::runtime_error'
  what():  torrent contains name with directories: 'Some.Torrent.Folder/'
Aborted (core dumped)

I'm running Gutsy BUT with the Feisty kernel (which might be the cause, not sure though) - I haven't been able to boot the Gutsy kernel yet (and I haven't had much chance to fiddle either..)

I had 0.5.4.1 installed from the repositories, and upgrading to 0.6.1 broke it with the above error. I've just removed it and re-installed 0.5.4.1 from the repository - it's still coming up with the same error. Don't particularly want to nuke my config if I don't have to..

Any help appreciated!

DAMN......now I can't use Deluge anymore.....and I really really like Deluge.

"We have a FAQ for a reason." and "sigh" --- Why do you guys even bother doing this if that's your attitude?

[Murtadh]

Deluge is the best and one of the fastest torrent client I've ever used in Linux, but in Gutsy OMG. it's still offer the same work but it crashes at least once a week and I have to clean the files to uninstall it and reinstall it again !! I'm fine with that but this issue wast more than 7.5 G of my unfinished torrents and its all in 90~ % ???? now all this unfinished data is completely no use .

OK, I love your deluge and I'll use it but all what I'm asking for is two thing:
1- more stabling
2- to make the unfinished files is capable to be redownloaded from the last point, from the same PC or other PC, so if there is a crash or I needed to complete the files in other PC I'll have the ability to fix what I want with out fearing to loose the unfinished torrents.
