I realize this is probably more of a Linux question than a Deluge one, but I'm hopeful you can provide some guidance.

Do I need to uninstall Deluged etc. from my headless rPi that was installed via aptitude (apt-get) before downloading, compiling and installing the latest version 1.3.11 manually via the instructions found here: http://www.onepitwopi.com/raspberry-pi/ ... pberry-pi/ ?

Because I was impatient to get things working, I didn't uninstall the previous version.

Now, the server reports:
deluged: 1.3.11
libtorrent: 1.0.6.0

(I'm hopeful that those are the latest versions available).

However, the Deluge thin client, on my Win7 box, (via Help/About) still reports the server as:
Server: 1.3.3
libtorrent: 0.15.10.0

I assume this means I've got something wrong somewhere.

The original deluge binaries are likely in /usr/bin but you have installed the latest version to /usr/local/bin and your init scripts probably still point to the former. Oh and 1.3.12 is now released.

If you have installed both deluge and libtorrent from source it is safe to remove the apt-get installed deluge and libtorrent.

Thanks. I've now installed 1.3.12, but I'm also going to update my configuration so Deluged is using a non-login user etc..

Can I simply copy the ~/.config/deluge folder to the recommended "home" folder /var/lib/deluge?

Is there a migration document/page? I tried setting "allow_remote" to True in the deluge-console (which I'd used from the original install), but that setting name doesn't appear to be supported now.

I've been banging my head against a wall attempting to get the upgrade working with the instructions here:
http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/User ... ce/systemd

I've gotten systemd installed, and running, gotten the deluged.service running (at least I see it when I run top), however, it clearly isn't running correctly yet as there are no changes to any of the files in it's "home" directory, and I cannot connect to it from the thin client.

I imagine there's an issue with the user rights, but I'm not sure where to start.

Here's the output when I check the "status" of the deluged.service:

I had to make some changes to the above instructions as they didn't match my install, but for the most part I followed them exactly.

I've been tripping up on the fact that "home dir for deluge user is now '/var/lib/deluge' ". But that means that the files that deluged wants are below that in '.config/deluge' (not actually in '/var/lib/deluge' which is what I was fixating on).

Now that I've got that in my head, I got my old '~/.config/deluge' files copied into the *right* place...not only getting the local deluged running with the correct config, but also giving me access from my Win7 box with the newly instaled 1.3.12.

Still seem to have that problem with the Checking of 60 or so torrents at startup...but at least it appears I'm alive & running again.

I've now rebooted the server a few more times, and have NOT had the problem of the torrents being re-checked...so maybe 1.3.12 has now solved that problem. I'll keep an eye out for any additional issues this week.

Good to hear

I'm having the reset progress to 0 problem as well - I think it may be due to having nobootwait set in fstab, so deluge can't see them (basically deluge is running before the USB drive is mounted). I'm using ubuntu 14.04 (RPi 2) and I edited /etc/init/deluged.conf with the following 'start on' stanza: where fstab mounts my USB drive with nobootwait to /media/Data

I just removed the mounted stanza... and replicated the error! FKYEAH go team (although now I'm re-checking - again)

EDIT: I also added although I can't really test that since it wont let me umount a busy drive
