I'm not really even sure how to search for what's going wrong, so forgive me if I'm missing something basic. Basically, daemon says its running, but
thin client can't connect and daemon doesn't do anything and deluged gives an error.

Sticky says to list what I'm running:

Code: Select all

deluged -v
deluged: 1.3.10
libtorrent: 0.16.18.0

I've had a perfectly usable deluge installation on a rpi 3 for at least a year. I was editing some shares and cleaning up directories a couple weeks ago, and decided to update and upgrade. Still on jessie, so not sure that's screwed me up.

Last night I went to add a few torrents, and they were not popping up on the thin client. I checked the torrents auto-add folder through Putty, and it hadn't picked them up.

Last time I installed I followed the basic install instructions here:

https://www.howtogeek.com/142044/how-to ... rrent-box/

When I reboot,

Code: Select all

top

says deluged is running.

When I killall or pkill deluged, and run deluged again, I get:

Code: Select all

Well I've now either made it better or worse -

Code: Select all

pi@threesberrypi:~ $ deluged
pi@threesberrypi:~ $ [ERROR   ] 22:02:11 main:232 There is a deluge daemon running with this config directory!
[ERROR   ] 22:02:11 main:233 You cannot run multiple daemons with the same config directory set.
[ERROR   ] 22:02:11 main:234 If you believe this is an error, you can force a start by deleting /home/pi/.config/deluge/deluged.pid.

I found this post:
viewtopic.php?t=54816

which suggested renaming, so I did

Code: Select all

sudo mv deluge/ delooj

After a reboot, it gives the above.

I'm going to bed before I burn it down.

When I find this in another 6 months, twice now I've had no luck and ended up wiping the rpi card and reinstalling.

I fixed it following the rename suggestion.

The part I always miss is that the commands in the guide I use

https://www.howtogeek.com/142044/how-to ... rrent-box/

are all jumbled together, so I try to run 2 or 3 at the same time and it (of course) doesn't work. Then I get frustrated and, until now, reinstall.

Running sudo pkill deluged didn't seem to make a difference, but it might have. Rename .config/deluge to delugebak, reboot so it starts and creates new, edit auth with pw:name:10, maybe reboot again, and thinclient connects.
