Torrent stuck at 90%; seed avail at 100%

Post by coli1875 »

I don't think this Deluge problem but maybe someone can give me a hint on what's going on with a specific Torrent I'm trying to download...

I'm downloading a Torrent that is currently stuck around 90% downloading even though there is one seeder which Deluge show it's connect to and that has 100% of the Torrent file set. Right now there is only 1 seeder connected and 9 peers. Deluge is most of the time connected to the 100% seeder and occasionally I see some downloading activity but it has stopped for the last couple of days. I believe I got most of the file set through some other seeders which have the partial file set too instead of the complete one, but as I said, I only see ONE specific seeder with 100% of the file set. Deluge sometimes connect to it and it shows a download speed of 0.1 for a couple of seconds then it goes to zero and disconnect from it.

My share ratio for this specific Torrent is around 1.3. I checked the debug log but the IP address of the 100% seeder is not there and there are no errors associated with the Torrent's name.

What could be preventing Deluge from asking and/or downloading the remaining of this specific Torrent from the seeder that is shown on the peer list and that has 100% of the file set ??. I could even see his IP address on an netstat shown as "Established". He's using uTorrent BTW.

Any ideas on what could be happening here ??

I'd say that he's choked, he's currently unable (probably due to bandwidth constraints) to send anything to you.
Just be patient, eventually you should get the remaining 10%.
