running deluge on headless ubuntu server

[t0nes]

I'm trying to setup Deluge on an Ubuntu-Jaunty sever via SSH. I've installed the package using apt-get.

Of course, when I try to run deluge, it tells me it can't find GTK. Fair enough, because I'm running it in an SSH window.

But when I try to run it with the console UI or the web UI, it tells me "ImportError: No module named console.main" or "ImportError: No module named webui.webui"

Do I need to hook up a monitor and keyboard to my box to get Deluge running? Or is there a way to install/enable these modules from the command-line? Or what am I missing?

Thanks!

When asking a question it is always helpful to mention what version of Deluge you are trying to run. Things often change quite a bit between versions.

But, from what I know about those errors I would check to make sure you have installed the packages deluge-console and deluge-webui (for 1.1.9) or deluge-web (for 1.2.0-rc1-2). The devs have created these seperate packages for the daemon, and each UI so that you only have to install as much or as little of deluge as you need/want to use. The other thing to check is whether or not the daemon (deluged) is running or not. See information regarding the daemon from the wiki:
