Deluge Forum

Hi,

Sorry if this has been asked, I've searched but no result so far.

I'm running Ubuntu 12.04.2 on a HP Proliant Microserver, and installed Deluge following these instructions: http://www.linuxplained.com/install-del ... untu-1204/ (just the daemon and web, no gui)

Daemon is running fine. Deluge-web ran well for two days, but now everytime I go into the web app and logout (or close the webui) the deluge-web module seems to hang.

This is the message:

web.Server Traceback (most recent call last):
<type 'exceptions.IOError'>: [Errno 24] Too many open files: '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/deluge/ui/web/index.html'

/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/twisted/web/server.py, line 132 in process
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/twisted/web/server.py, line 167 in render

<type 'exceptions.IOError'>: [Errno 24] Too many open files: '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/deluge/ui/web/index.html'

I have only 8 torrents at this moment active, total about 100 files inside them I think.

I can just restart the deluge-web doing stop deluge-web -> start deluge-web, and it works fine again till next login, but having to log via ssh everytime just to put up a torrent is a bit stupid.

Anyone knows about this?

Thank you very much for reading.

you need to increase your file limits in limits.conf and sysctl.conf

modify them to at least 65535.

Refer to this link for the guide:

Working, thank you very much.

Just in case, my own solution for the problem (stupid but effective) was putting up a cronjob with an sh with this content:

#!/bin/sh
stop deluge-web
start deluge-web

Sorry to be here again, but it seems it is not working . Same problem.

I've noted now that deluge-web process goes to 100% cpu when it fails, I suppose it happened that way earlier.
