1.1.2 will not start

Hi

I've been using 1.1.1 on unbuntu untrepid without any issues apart from the 'freeze checking' which I read version 1.1.2 was meant to fix.

So I installed V 1.1.2 and deluge began to start but stopped responding leaving only a blank window.

So I re-installed version 1.1.1, which before I installed 1.1.2 was working ok, but still the same not responding problem...? well I was wanting to complete downloading a torrent which was approx 85% done.So I installed version 0.5.9.3 the one in the unbuntu repro's & this version is working ok.

I had the same problem. Found the solution to be killall -9 deluged. I assume the 1.1.2 client isn't compatible with the 1.1.1 daemon and that is causing the problem. Situation could/should be handled better though.

I'm having another kind of problems. I've set deluged as autostart program on my Ubuntu intrepid, and everuthing was working smooth, till upgrade to 1.1.2, which stopped starting then. Anyone knows where can I find log files for deluged, since the one in ~/.config/deluge/ is empty?

I just upgraded to 1.1.2 and had the same Problem.
I used to start deluged via

Code: Select all

deluged -l deluged.log -L debug
As I tried to check if deluged is running, ps could not find a process named deluged though there were fresh entries in the logfile.
So I tried to start deluged a few times with same results.
Then I started deluged via

Code: Select all

deluged -L debug -d
so it would not fork away and print stuff to the commandline and see, it started and kept running.
Then I killed deluged with

Code: Select all

killall deluged
and started it again as I used to. However, it then worked like a charm.
Kind of voodoo, but maybe someone can confirm...

Regards

From today's morning deluge fails to show an UI to me.
Starting deluged and deluge from console or by shortcut in menu brings nothing.
but i still can see deluge and deluged process in SysMon.

Then i tried to start a webui - it works for me. Then i found this treatd and do this:

1) kill all deluge and deluged processes
2) start deluged in console with -L debug and -d options
3) start deluge by menu shortcut

And now it works!

I didn't restarted after this Voodoo, cos i need some stuff to be downloaded as quick as possible. When i restart all this, i post about my results.

I'm using Ubuntu 8.04 and deluge-torrent_1.1.2-1_i386.hardy.deb

p.s. sorry for my english ;)

Okay. Now everything seems OK.
The problem was in missing Stats plugin. Maybe Deluge was confused when was unable to find it and just do not display any UI.

After deleting core.conf and gtkui.conf I still not be able to start deluge unless manually start deluged in console.
This was fixed by disabling "Classic Mode" in configuration. (Looks like Deluge needs its daemon when runs in Classic mode. But now he can't start it by itself)

Hope this helps.

"Found the solution to be killall -9 deluged. I assume the 1.1.2 client isn't compatible with the 1.1.1 daemon and that is causing the problem.".

Ok I Copied deluge/state folder so as to keep my current seeds.Then using synaptic I 'completely' removed Deluge 'deluge-torrent-common V 0.5.9.3-1 & deluge-torrent.So giving a fresh install.I then downloaded the package for intrepid '1.1.2-1~getdeb1 ' .Installed it.

Still only a blank screen.when I try starting deluge from the terminal I get

~$ deluge
1.1.2
& then a blank screen appears with nowt in it .

THough I would like to find a simple way to upgrade because V 0.5.9.3 has problems too I.E - Some files never begin to seed ,they remain 'connecting' and trackers don't see them.

All I require from a client is the ability to leech/seed torrents efficiently,to limit up/download speeds & have a good level of stabilty from the software without having to delve into the terminal with commands in order to make it run correctly.

So far I have not found a reliable torrent client that have these minimal features with linux. Even the' Transmission' client that ships with ubuntu stopped correctly reporting my torrents to http://www.tribalmixers.com after I'd used it for a while.

I'm not complaining I'm sure you guys are doing the best you can.

Is their a Deluge version that has a really good track record for Ubuntu Intrepid 8.10

or has anyone else experience with a reliable simple to use bit torrent client that just 'works ;-) & has a fully tested & stable release

I had 1.1.2 version working fine, since 1.1.3. I also get that Segmentation Fault when running deluged -L debug -d... without parameters it doesn't even start. And deluge itself has another problem
when I launch it:

client:146 Socket or XMLRPC error: (111: Connectionfailed etc..)

And once that error has happened after 5-10seconds trying to connect If I close from the system tray icon, it gives me:

Code: Select all

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/deluge/ui/gtkui/systemtray.py", line 311, in on_menuitem_quit_activate
    client.shutdown()
  File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/deluge/ui/client.py", line 329, in shutdown
    self.core.call("shutdown", None)
  File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/deluge/ui/client.py", line 112, in call
    raise deluge.error.NoCoreError("The core proxy is invalid.")
deluge.error.NoCoreError: 'The core proxy is invalid.'
Is there a dependency that's missing? It seems like a python compatibility problem?
I cannot find on the website what phyton version deluge 1.1.3 requires? is it 2.5 or 2.4 or 3.0rc1?

deleting the config folders and removing deluge and reinstalling 1.1.2 with proper purging, ...remove --purge --reinstall doesn't work either? apart from deluge-torrent and deluge-torrent-common packages what are all the dependencies of deluge? is it mentioned somewhere on the website?

Does anyone has a similar problem? or better? found the solution :)

I can't get the gui up from today :roll:

The daemon appears to be running but the gui just will not load. I removed deluge and reinstalled 1.1.2 but still no joy. Happened after upgrading to 1.1.3

The webgui doesn't load either but i am not 100% what the port is, tried 8112.

Deluge is running though.
