Can't seem to get the Test Active Port button to work. I have the "no incoming connections" message and would like to see if my port is forwarding correctly but the button does nothing. I'm downloading and uploading fine and fast but I am showing as "unconnectable" on some sites. Didn't have this problem until I upgraded to RC1. I am also getting the errors when I try to download something but I just click OK and then it works. I understand this has been corrected on RC2. When is it coming out? Other than that this client is awesome. Good work!

I am having the exact same problem running Deluge 1.2.0-rc1-dev on Linux Mint 7 64 bit. And yes, the client is the awesome!

I solved the "Incoming Connections". For some reason Windows was blocking my incoming connections from Deluge. The TAP button still doesn't work. No biggie though.

how do you get the incoming connections to work?

I found the issue was windows blocking incoming connections on files other than deluge.exe (which the installer configures to allow). It was not obvious at first because when going to the Control Panel, Windows Firewall, Allowed Programs screen I saw deluge.exe listed as allowed. When I added deluge-console.exe, deluged.exe, deluge-gtk.exe, and deluged-web.exe and set them to allow the connections came in.

I wouldn't be surprised if only a subset was required such as deluge-gtk.exe. However I didn't have time to test and adding all of them worked. Note I excluded the debug and a few of the executable in the same directory.

The Test Active Port (TAP) button was always working and showing green. The port was forwarded from the firewall correctly. There were no indications from Deluge User Interface that it was having any problems.

I never had the "no incoming connections" message either. Everything appeared as connected even though outbound/seeding connections were not working.

The most obvious indication that things were working was population of the upload speed fields and the torrent indicating it had bytes synchronized in the right direction (where previously all showed 0 bytes).

Thanks to this and a number of threads for getting me to an answer.
