Webui access by ipv6

Post by yeppix »

Hello everybody.
Sorry if my question is too easy but i don't know how to solve it.

I've installed deluge-torrent according to http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/Inst ... nux/Ubuntu and http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/Inst ... nux/Ubuntu. My server is Ubuntu 14.04. The main problem is it has only ipv6-address and i can't get to web interface in ordinary way: http://[ipv6-address]:8112. I see only error "Unable to connect".
I have to notice that it works fine for ipv4-server (i've checked it additionally).

Have you considered the thinclient setup?

That will let you run the normal GUI on a different PC. Not sure if that will work on ipv6 or not.

It has a lot of steps, but really all you need to do is uncheck the "classic mode" button in the interface settings, edit the auth file with any text editor and restart it.

Thinclient didn't help: i can't remotely connect to deluged. I've tried different users - nothing helps.

Looking at the code (deluge 1.3.11), I think it may not support IPv6. I can tell that the one I'm running is bound to an IPv4 only TCP socket.
Looking at twisted, the underlying python server system in use by deluge, I _think_ it supports IPv6 adequately, but I don't know the system well enough to know what would have to be done to deluge to support getting twisted to work with an IPv6 socket.

I think you'll have to request it as an enhancement, I think it's known to not work, at the moment.

i've researched the bug tracker and development forum: similar requests are closed for no reason. so i don't think my request will make sense.
cross, thanks for final clarification.
