Can't reinstall Deluge
Posted: Sat Sep 15, 2012 11:46 pm
First I tried installing Deluge through software center thinking this is best because they are all linked.
I fired up Deluge,
Enabled all plugins which told me I have to install Deluge We so I did along with deluged because I wanted to use the daemon and have it start on boot.
Unchecked classic mode and closed it.
I followed the directions at: http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/User ... t%20Job%29
Rebooted and the daemon never started.
I completely removed everything through synaptic
Nuked the ~/.config/deluge so no residual config files were floating around
I then added the Deluge PPA: ppa:deluge-team/ppa
Created this user: sudo adduser --system --group --home /var/lib/deluge deluge
Added myself to that user group: sudo adduser <myusername> deluge
Installed: deluged deluge-webui
Created the two upstart scripts according to: http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/User ... t%20Job%29
I've noticed that ~/.config/deluge/ was never created at all.
I've tried to reinstall this three times and the same thing happens. ~/.config/deluge/ never is created.
I started from scratch and blew away Ubuntu and reinstalled Ubuntu 11.10 dektop.
Added: ppa:deluge-team/ppa
Installed: deluged deluge-webui
Followed this upstart to the letter with logging: http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/User ... t%20Job%29
Everything was fine till I tried enabling SSL through the web. Once I did that I wasn't able to connect anymore.
I went into Synaptic: completely removed all deluge installs
deleted: ~/.config/deluge
deleted: the two upstart scripts
Went back to terminal: sudo apt-get install deluged deluge-webui
Went to look in ~/.config/deluge and guess what it's not there even though synaptic shows deluge* is installed.
I am ready to throw in the towel on Deluge here. I've tried to install Deluge again three times and each time it will not install properly
Why is Deluge not installing properly anymore and how do i fix this without having to blow away the OS again for the third time.
OR
If I have to blow away the OS Can someone please provide clear directions on how to install Deluge from the Ubuntu PPA:
(NOTE: No cryptic advice please... be clear with terminal commands... Not all of us are as well versed in linux as some of you.)
Both computers are Ubuntu 11.10 dektop
Machine 1: Run deluge on boot with upstart
Access the daemon through Web or GTK
Machine 2: Only access Machine 1 through GTK or Web
From Internet: Use Web to access Machine 1
