Empty tracker error

Post by 258299 »

Hello. I'm trying to run deluge and download torrents using ssh tunnel. I'm opening tunnel using this command:

Code: Select all

# ssh -2 -R 56219:localhost:56219 -A -D 8118 root@my_server
Proxy configuration:
Peer: Socks5 127.0.0.1:8118
Webseed: Socks5 127.0.0.1:8118
Tracker: Socks5 127.0.0.1:8118 - Without proxy it does not work also.
DHT: Socks5 127.0.0.1:8118

Options, page Network:
Incoming connections port: 56219
Outgoing: random
UPnP - ON
NAT-PMP - ON
Peer exchange - ON
LSD - ON
DHT - ON / OFF (no difference after switching)

Encoding:
Incomint: On
Outgoing: On
Level: Both
Checked option: "encode whole stream"

Based on this configuration I get in UI a message:
" Tracker Status: openbittorrent.com: Error: "

In log file this message appears:
[DEBUG ] 12:58:11 alertmanager:123 tracker_error_alert: torrent_name (udp://tracker.ccc.de:80) (-1) (7)
[DEBUG ] 12:58:11 alertmanager:123 tracker_error_alert: torrent_name (udp://tracker.openbittorrent.com:80) (-1) (7)
[DEBUG ] 12:58:11 alertmanager:123 tracker_error_alert: torrent_name (udp://tracker.publicbt.com:80) (-1) (7)
[DEBUG ] 12:58:11 alertmanager:123 tracker_error_alert: torrent_name (udp://tracker.istole.it:6969) (-1) (8)
What is strange, is that one torrent is downloading properly but also have problem with connecting the tracker.

This applies to all trackers I try to use, not only openbittorrent.com. Any ideas how I can fix it or where I can find more detailed information about this issue?

Hi,
I experience the very same error. I investigated this further but found no solution, here's what I found out:

- The problem happens for me on Debian 6.
- Not all trackers fail, some work, e.g. opensuse.org does work
- Switching off/on DHT/UPnP/NAT-PM etc. does not change anything
- Without the proxy, it works.
- On Open SuSE 12.1, it works right away.

Therefore I tried to recompile every package on Debian, so that the libraries are very similar to that of OpenSuSE, especially:

- openssl-1.0.1.c
- boost-1.51.0
- GeoIP-1.4.8
- Python 2.7.3
- libtorrent-rasterbar-0.16.3

Unfortunately, this made no difference at all. The only libraries, I did not change are basically:

- libpthreads
- libc

But I doubt that this is the reason.

So what I can still think of is the following:

- Update the Linux kernel
- Tune some network parameters, which are different between OpenSuSE <-> Debian 6

Perhaps anyone has a clue?

Best Regards,
Dusty

You should ask on the libtorrent mailing list because that is where the errors are coming from. http://www.rasterbar.com/products/libtorrent/

I'm having the same problem under Ubuntu 12.10. Have you found a solution?

Any advice on tracking down a libtorrent-rasterbar6 0.16.6 (or 0.16.7) deb file?

I am now using libtorrent 0.16.7. Still having the same problems. Seems to only be a problem when using proxies.

As I said before you need to contact libtorrent dev either on the mailing list or create a libtorrent bug report.

Every single torrent reports empty error in tracker status

Post by WishCow »

I'm running Deluge on a server that runs Arch linux, and I'm using the windows client to interface with it. My problem is that, every single torrent reports "[tracker name]: Error:". I'm not sure what caused this issue, or when it started. A few examples of the error messages:

waffles.fm: Error:
torrentbytes.net: Error:
ncore.cc: Error:

It's like the error message is cut out, there is nothing after the last colon. What can I do to debug this issue?

Version numbers:
Client: Windows, 1.3.6
Server: Arch linuxm 1.3.6,
libtorrent: 0.16.8.0
Installed from package.

Okay, I managed to find out something:

If I stop deluged, and restart it, the problem disappears. It's as if the problem only happens if it is started at boot time. I'm using systemd to manage the boot process, with the following unit file:

Code: Select all

[Unit]
Description=Deluge Daemon

[Service]
User=wishcow
ExecStart=/usr/bin/deluged -d -P /home/wishcow/deluged.pid -L error -l /tmp/dg.log
UMask=0002

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
