Private (Individual) Torrent Downloads

There may well be an issue with starting deluged from within deluge-web so for now start it separately.

[gembry]

Will do, however the same things seems to happen. The web UI doesn't recognize the daemon as running (even when it is started separately and appears in the process list), and so I can't connect to it.

I'm having the same problem with Debian. Latest version from git master. Starting the daemon works both from the Web UI and from command line, but the UI doesn't seem to notice it and says it is offline.

The version from the Debian repos (1.3.3) works, but I was having some other problems with the Web UI which seem to have been fixed since.

This bug seems to affect the Web UI as well. Doing the workaround helped and it now connects.

You're a life saver, that's exactly it. Do either you or Cas know how to change the deluge-gtk options without actually starting deluge-gtk? I'm getting the following error, which might just be because this is on a headless server or could be the root of the problem

Code: Select all

What options do you need to change? How about setting up thinclient?

[gembry]

The workaround is to open deluge-gtk and change the setting from classic to thinclient

I'm trying to do that, so I figured you either need to change it in a config file or through deluge-gtk. I couldn't find any config file so I assumed the latter.

I guess the question is how do I do what it says to do?

[Cas]

Create a hostlist.conf.1.2 file with the following contents:

Code: Select all

{
  "file": 2, 
  "format": 1
}{
  "hosts": [
    [
      "1", 
      "127.0.0.1", 
      58846, 
      "localclient", 
      "<password from auth file>"
    ]
  ]
}

Unfortunately that seems not to change anything. This affects more than just the web UI, it appears, as the console doesn't detect the daemon either. So the daemon has the following properties:

- It starts without obvious error.
- It does not log anything to file, even when logging is on debug.
- No interface can connect to it.

So some more questions:

- If the latest version in the git master branch works for other platforms, is it possible it just hates CentOS?
- Is my method of installation (git clone git://deluge-torrent.org/deluge.git, python setup.py clean -a, python setup.py build, python setup.py install) lacking?
- Could this have anything to do with the libtorrent I'm using? Everything else is installed using this yum command:

Code: Select all

yum --enablerepo=linuxtech-testing install gcc gcc-c++ python python-twisted python-twisted-web pyOpenSSL python-setuptools gettext intltool jchardet  pyxdg boost* openssl openssl-static zlib notify-python pygame pygtk2 librsvg2 xdg-utils python-mako python-chardet python-devel 

[Cas]

What do you mean it does not log to file, are you using the command correctly:

Code: Select all

deluge-web -L debug -l deluge-web.log

Also did you replace the line that says <password from auth file> with the long hash-like password from your auth file.
