Deluge Forum

I have Ubuntu 8.04 installed on my EEE PC 900.

I installed Deluge through synaptic (help > about says 0.5.8.9). Added torrents to seed, enabled web UI, went to http://localhost:8112/ and it won't let me log in with the default password of deluge.

Any attempted password, from any computer on the network (localhost or IP:8112), results in an error screen with this traceback:

Code: Select all

--Deluge Error--

  File "/usr/share/deluge/plugins/WebUi/webserver_framework.py", line 188, in check_pwd
    m.update(ws.config.get('pwd_salt'))

My interface is fluxbox but I doubt it's that. Any help would be much appreciated.

in 0.5.8.9, you choose your default password in the webui preferences.
the default password of deluge if for 1.0 (where you can only change the password from the web ui)

Ah, that worked. Thank you.
