Deluge Forum

I just switched from uTorrent to Deluge and I'm having trouble getting Magnet Links to do anything. Deluge opens them and everything, but no file list is ever generated and the torrent never starts downloading. It just sits there.

Is there some trick to this, or does the program not fully support Magnet links? I am running Deluge 1.3.5 and it says I have libtorrent 0.15.10.0.

Thanks for any assistance.

If this applies to all magnet links it would suggest you are unable to connect to peers to get the torrent metadata. Do you have incoming connections, i.e incoming ports properly forwarded and working?

Try testing with popular magnet links from sites like Clearbits or Mininova. The alternative is to find the original .torrent file by searching the internet with the infohash from the magnet.

This seems to be caused by using new libtorrent in deluge 1.3.5(by manually replacing file).
