Windows - show info when no connection

Hello,

Code: Select all

c:\Program Files (x86)\Deluge>deluge-console
Traceback (most recent call last):

socket.error: [Errno 10060] A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond

This happens if there's no connection to internet/firewall blocks it.
I think there should be some popup window (with windowed Deluge, not console one) which would inform the user that there's no connection - today I spent a lot of time trying to understand why Deluge appears in process list for about a minute then shuts down.

Sorry for my english.

You cannot run deluge-console interactively on Windows, this is the output you should see so not sure why you are getting an error

Code: Select all

C:\Program Files\Deluge>deluge-console.exe

Deluge-console does not run in interactive mode on Windows.

Please use commands from the command line, eg:

    deluge-console.exe help
    deluge-console.exe info
    deluge-console.exe "add --help"
    deluge-console.exe "add -p c:\mytorrents c:\new.torrent"

Code: Select all

C:\Program Files\Deluge>deluge-console.exe info
Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1:58846 with reason: No connection could be made because the
target machine actively refused it.

You misunderstood me a little

What I meant to say:
Let's say there's no connection (may be caused by firewall, internet provider, broken cable, whatever...)
deluge-console prints some information that there's no connection (socket.error: bla bla)
deluge doesn't display anything, then it exits from process list after some time

I think that deluge should show some window popup (for example MessageBox from WinAPI) that would tell the user what the problem is.
