Deluge Forum

I've run deluge for a number of years with 0 problems but now I've come upon a hiccup.

Almost suddenly the torrents stopped downloading (no new ones will start) and don't see any seeders or peers. If they do, they see very few.

The only change I can think of is installing custom firmware (Tomato) on my router. I've gone through setting after setting and even dropped the machine in the DMZ for testing and still no joy. One thing I changed was enabling Cut-Through Forwarding but I disabled that and restarted everything still same issue.

I've tried reinstalling, running with logging on, etc. Not really seeing anything.

If I start the Daemon on my Win11 machine and use one of the same torrents it works just fine.

I'm not sure what I did or possibly misconfigured on this ubuntu (jammy) install to make it stop.

No upnp, qos, anything like that. Private trackers. Everything is pretty straightforward.

Any ideas? It's probably something blindly obvious I'm missing.

2.1.1-0~202207101304~ubuntu22.04.1

I would stop looking towards the router...based on it working on a windows machine that I assume (you didn't say) is also running on the same network, it would experience the same issues if this was a router issue.

My first question would be, checking these torrents that you're having issues with in ubuntu, what does the "trackers" tab of the torrent say next to "Tracker Status" and does this change if you force an update (right click -> update tracker) - Do you see Announce OK or just Announce Sent, or some form of an error....

edit: you can also try a public torrent like linux mint's x64 iso and see if that works, this may be a ssl certificate validation problem...i've seen this in the past with other users and some trackers...if this is the case we can go over disabling ssl validation, it will be evident in the tracker status (and if your torrent's tracker is using https)

try this https://www.linuxmint.com/torrents/linu ... so.torrent and let me know if it works on the ubuntu deluge instance as well as the rest of the things i asked about

Agree about the router.

The tracker stati were all reading okay. Some would get a "truncated" error but this usually doesn't affect the torrent. Most of the time it was ANNOUNCE OK, etc.

It occurred to be I -did- try a public torrent though not a super public one. I will try this linux mint distro.

I may have stumbled across the problem though. I just tried to copy some other files to the download folder for a different reason and it reported that there is "No space left on device." This could certainly be why the downloads aren't starting.

I'll investigate all of this

I actually have the same problem too randomly.

I came to Deluge the other day and 10 files I had uploaded were all stuck at 0$

My old file say seeding, but there is 0 bandwidth in or out.

I keep adding files and some under tracker will say: "Anounce OK" others will say: "Error: unspecified system error" then switch to "Announce Sent" then only to circle back to system error.

The odd part is that it was working fine last week. Any info you could direct me to in how to fix this?

I would advise you to do a few things, firstly rather than hijacking (that's what it's commonly called on forums) a thread with a similar but not identical issue, create your own thread with as much information as you can give us about your setup as well as the errors including logs and any specifics that may have changed from prior to the error(s) occurring to after.

Simply giving us the "unspecified system error" line and telling us it just started and was working before, gives us almost nothing to go off to help narrow it down.

We don't know what version of Deluge you are running, whether your tracker issue is happening on one that is using https or not, if this is affecting all torrents on the tracker(s) you use or just a specific tracker, what OS you run, or really anything else.

I'd advise you to take some time and help us help you, and to create a thread on the forum for your specific issue and situation.

An update to my situation.

Separately from all this I was getting a "No Space Left on Device" error when trying to move some files on that drive.

I was tracking down that error (drive had lots of space still) trying to figure it all out. (Space on drive, plenty of inodes, other things seemed ok)

I realized it didn't have a partition table, e.g it was mounted as /dev/sda with no number. Though it was working fine for years so I was just thinking it might be failing and time to go, nbd.

As an effort I copied everything off. Reformatted the drive and added a partition, copied everything back on.

It SEEMS LIKE its working now, but in that process there were a few restarts etc.

However it seems logical to me that not being able to write to the drive would have caused deluge to hang up.
