HTTPs torrents do not work.

I am having trouble with torrents that are downloaded with the announce URL using HTTPs. The trackers status says the announce is sent, and that is it. Any workarounds or ideas?

Thanks
Brandon

depends. are you using 0.5.8.6? if on ubuntu, `dpkg -l deluge-torrent` will give you the version, or you can look in help->about. ubuntu gutsy only has 0.5.4.1...we've only had https support since 0.5.8.4. does it ever change to show a timeout or anything else?

I am using 0.5.8.5 under Gentoo 2006.1. I noticed it said it has HTTPs support as of 0.5.8.4, which is why I switched (am trying to) from Transmission. The client does work for me with non HTTPs torrents. I'm installing 0.5.8.6 right now, I'll post back if anything changes after the compile. Also, it does not timeout or anything. It just says "Announce Sent" Next Announce In X:XX:XX

[EDIT] No luck after upgrading to 0.5.8.6.

Thanks

It is a private tracker I use. I can still send you the torrent, but with the tracker being private, it probably won't be of much help.

Here is the output when encryption is turned off for the tracker.

Code: Select all

Tracker: http://tracker.xxxxxx.xxx/announce.php?passkey=xxxxx
Tracker Status: Announce OK
And when encryption is enabled

Code: Select all

Tracker:
Tracker Status: Announce Sent
The only different in the URLs are http:// and https://

Thanks
Brandon

I'm using 0.5.8.9 i386 on ubuntu, installed from the package.

After turning on event logging I can see the error being thrown. It's from line 550 in http://svn.deluge-torrent.org/trunk/lib ... anager.cpp ("unkown protocol in tracker url") It was really easy to find, since unknown is misspelled : )

I will provide additional information if you tell me what you need.

Edit: sorry, apparently there is already a ticket for this: http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/ticket/121
