Blocklist Importer Questions and Help Request

[Slow is Fast]

I am using Deluge 0.5.8.2 and am trying to get the Blocklist Importer plugin to work. When I click the check mark to enable it, it just hangs on "Loading and installing blocklist". I figured, "hey, it's probably hanging because there is no list to load, I'll go drop one in".

So I went and played at the BlocklistImporter folder in /usr/share/deluge/plugins/, and I added my IP's to pg.txt. I also downloaded an IP list in the nipfilter.dat.gz format and copied that over. I go to fire up the BlocklistImporter and it continues to hang and not load anything.

Here are my files, in the BlocklistImporter folder: _init_.py, listfiles1.txt, listfile2.txt, nipfilter.dat.gz, peerguardian.py, pg.txt, splist.txt, test.py, text.py, ui.py. My blocked IP's are in nipfilter.dat.gz and pg.txt.

So I'm at a loss as to how to get this plugin working and get my IP's blocked.

Thanks in advance guys!

You would have to point it to the file where the nipfilter.dat.gz is located... or easier would probably be to insert the link and just have it download it since it has a feature now to set a time when it should download a new version instead of every time it's started.

The one I use: Emule ip list (gzip)

Is there an option in Deluge to point to the file or web site? Or must I edit a config file to do that? I looked in Deluge for an options, but the preferences button for BlocklistImporter is greyed out both enabled or disables.

All you should have to do is enable the plugin and click the preferences.

You may also need to delete the blocklist.conf file per this thread... http://forum.deluge-torrent.org/viewtop ... f=8&t=1139

It looks very similar to this?

thanks for the help so far loki, I've found that Preferances button before, but it isn't clickable wether BlocklistImporter is enabled or disabled, leading me to believe its the blocklist.conf file thats breaking things, I look through the thread you linked, but it doesn't say where blocklist.conf is located so I have been looking for it but have been unable to find. If I delete that file will I it automatically write a new config? or will I have to reinstall Deluge all together?

Thanks again

It's location is listed in the first post of that thread, and, it should create a new one when it is enabled.

I suppose if you can't figure it out with that you could try editing the file yourself, enter this verified working data from my file...

It's all one long string.

GOT IT FINALLY.

the code i used to delete the file was:

Code: Select all

cd /usr/share/deluge/
rm ~/.config/deluge/blocklist.conf

I didnt know what the ~/.config/ really meant, or where it was, but i figured it out.

Thanks loki

~ refers to /home/[currentuser]

Using ~ is like using the absolute path to /home/[youruser]. Doesnt matter what directory you are in, if you use ~ it will always point to your home dir.

I keep a "plain text" list containing the most important lists from bluetack.

Level 1-3
Microsoft
Bogon
Spyware

I have combined them all into one text (or p2p) file and you can find it at my site http://s3raph1rn.com/public-share/blocklist

This way I have all the text files in one list. I tried loading the list into deluge direct from the web address but that took forever and didnt actually work. I just ended up saving it to my home dir (think my documents for you windows folks) and then just pointed deluge to my local copy.

Hope this helps!

Hi I am using Deluge 0.5.8.3 over Windows Vista and I have a problem with the blocklist plugin.

I set it up properly and after downloading the list update from bluetack (i am using safepeer) it stacks on "Importing" forever.

Here's a screenshot.
