Report for RC7 on Ubuntu 8.04.1

The program finally seems to be useful. Although I think atleast one bug... I logged out and restarted my computer using Ctrl + Alt + Backspace, and after rebooting the "#" column is empty. I'm seeding five torrents at the moment and nothing happens when I choose to move one to the top of the queue (don't know if that's supposed to happen on torrents in Seeding state but I thought I'd mention it anyway). I'm also having problems running a daemon on my fileserver and connecting to it from my desktop. So far I've done the following:

- Installed Deluge RC7 on the server
- Started the daemon using this command: deluged -p 58846 -c /home/sam/.delugeconfig -l .delugelog
- By looking at the log I think the daemon starts but I can't connect to it, I only get a red light.

I've attached the log content after running deluged here: http://neggelandia.dyndns.org/log.txt
If someone could help me out with getting this remote daemon thing to work I'd be very grateful.

Any ETA on when we'll get a final version?

Seeding torrents do not have queue positions, they use a seed rank and cycle seeds based on the rank.

To allow remote connections in the daemon you will need to set this in the config. You can do this pretty easily with the CLI ui.
On the server with deluged running:

Code: Select all

$ deluge -u null
config-set allow_remote True

Alright I've now configured it to allow remote connections. Two more questions (can't try anything atm 'cause I'm at work):

1. Do I have to edit all settings using the CLI interface or can I edit them in the GUI once I've connected to the daemon?
2. Can I connect to my daemon at home from work if I forward the daemon port, or does it somehow only work on internal networks?

One connected to your daemon you can change most(all?) settings for it via the client gui. :)

I would strongly urge you to not allow connections to the daemon from an untrusted network (internet). If you need to access the daemon remotely then I would suggest using the webui or tunneling the gtkui connection over SSH.

I got the remote daemon setup to work, everything seems to be working fine except the GUI is quite slow, actually so slow it gets irritating. The computer running the daemon has the following specs:

CPU: AMD Athlon XP 1800+
RAM: 512 MB SDRAM
HDD: Some Maxtor ATA100 drive

My network is 100 Mbit and I can transfer files between the server and my computer with about 8 MB/s, so I don't think that's the problem. The network lag is about 0.5 ms per packet so it can't be that either.

Is there any way to make the GUI more responsive? At first I used an old 450Mhz machine with 384 MB RAM and I thought that was the reason but it hasn't got better after the upgrade either. I just hope it won't be like this forever...

I have a similar setup and have no issues. Is the cpu usage of the daemon high? What OS is the server running?

The CPU usage is constantly between 5 and 20 %, most of it is used by the daemon. I have noticed that my networks sometimes becomes very slow overall when the daemon is downloading torrents (I'm leeching five torrents at the moment). It even got so slow that I got lost packets when pinging my router, and browsing the web may freeze completely from time to time. This doesn't happen when I run Deluge in classic mode on my local computer. I now tried limiting the amount of connections to 700 (instead of unlimited) and limited my download speed to 600 kb/s (my max is around 800 kb/s), let's hope it makes some difference.

Note that when I wasn't able to ping my router I was able to ping my other computers on the network (including the daemon) fine with 0.4ms lag. I have a 300 dollar Allied Telesyn switch so I don't think that's the problem...

I have noticed this problem since a previous couple of builds and still not fixed in the new version.
if i download selected files from within a torrent and then making a recheck while the program still didnt create some files from what i selected it will freeze at the recheck on the location where the missing file.and it wont stop recheck or start download.
i can exit the program normally and when running the program again it continues download from the position it freezed on. and the files after the missing file consider null(zeros).
if i created a dummy files with the same name as the missing, the program recheck will finish successfully and it will continue download normally.
hope this info is usefull for the next builds.
