I tested this now with clean install of Deluge 1.3.3 and upgrading the libtorrent version (0.15.8). Kept my user data folder (from 1.3.3) though.

I no longer have problems with rechecking or resuming download. I tried this by starting a download of a torrent of multiple files of 350mb (total size 5.4gb) and killed the process. Restarted and it rechecked only that torrent, successfully, and not the seeding torrents i also had loaded. It also shuts down properly. Win 7 64-bit.

Thank you.

Edit: I still get "Status: Reached the end of the file <filename>" on some torrents.

I tried Deluge 1.3.1 with libtorrent 0.15.8 and all torrents that had problems with Deluge 1.3.3 + libt 0.15.8 is working.

Sorry can you rephrase that as its not quite clear what is working.

Edit:

I think that the "Reached the end of the file" issue will be fixed by using 1.3.1 with 0.15.8 but you may run to 100% memory usage if you force recheck.

For reference qbittorent is experiencing these same libtorrent issues:

Edit: replaced trunk with 0.15RC build

I have been testing a fix that was applied to libtorrent code and it seems to be working well for me.

I have attached the build for anyone else wants to test with 1.3.3.
  • Navigate to Deluge folder 'C:\Program Files\Deluge\' or 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Deluge\'
  • Backup old libtorrent by renaming libtorrent.pyd to libtorrent.pyd_bak
  • Extract libtorrent.pyd from the attached archive into the folder
  • Start Deluge and check Help->About for the installed libtorrent version

I have just merged a number of other topics into this one so that everyone gets updates about the same issue that has been troubling Win7 x64 users of 1.3.2 & 1.3.3.

Arvid has just released the latest version of libtorrent 0.15.9 that has the fixes for windows users. I have attached the release for anyone who cannot wait for me to create a new installer (no timescale yet).

Sigh. Still not fixed in 0.15.9 with files larger that 2Gb.

Not sure if this helps but smaller torrents (TV shows..) seem to work reliably now, so that's something. :)
Thanks for your patience.

I was having this problem as well.

I just managed to get libtorrent and deluge built from source and I can confirm that libtorrent trunk no longers has this problem.

using the older libtorrent library didn't fix it.

I did not have deluge installed in the past, clean instal. I installed gtk+ using setup and afterwards the newer stable version, installed dotNet 4 (because some post mentioned it), changed the libtorrent and even installed python: nothing helped

system: windows 7 64 bit
deluge: 1.3.3

Are you saying that Deluge 1.3.3 (Windows) + libtorrent 0.15.9 works without problems if you build them from source?
