0.6 Auto-pickup of torrents

Post by SumnerBoy »

Hi - I am new to the world of torrents and deluge. I have managed to get v0.6 running headless on my Ubuntu 8.04 server and have got a few torrents running by manually adding the torrent URLs. I was wondering if it is possible to configure the deluge daemon to monitor a path so that you can drop a .torrent file into it and have it automatically picked up and processed?

BTW - I have found v0.6 to be quite stable so far. Very impressive!

you can configure the "Auto Add folder" to point to the path you want. in the web ui go to the Download section of the Config menu

I set the auto add folder and restarted the deluge daemon but nothing happens when I drop a .torrent file in there. Is this feature operational in v0.6? Is there something I need to do to trigger the load of that torrent?

Thanks in advance.
