deluge-web not using settings in deluged core.conf

[aksjhdiodqunw]

I'm running deluge (daemon) v2.1.2.dev0 on Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS (headless). Installed from official deluge PPA repo and latest available as of now (2024-10-23). My configuration file for deluged is located in /var/lib/deluged/config/core.conf which I've verified is correct and has all the right permissions (everything is owned by debian-deluged:debian-deluged).

I also have deluge-web installed, with config file of /var/lib/deluged/config/web.conf

When I go to thew webui and open preferences, it's not showing any of my settings from core.conf, and when I add new torrent files, it also ignores the settings from core.conf. Take a look at the attachment below for reference.

Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?

There is also only one core.conf on my machine, so I don't think there is another config that I'm updating the wrong one.

Code: Select all

root@ubuntu:/home/user# find / -iname core.conf
/var/lib/deluged/config/core.conf
root@ubuntu:/home/user#

Sounds like you're on-top-of-it from your post, so can only guess needing restart the service, i.e. after amending/copied-over core.conf? Otherwise i'm not sure what's going on, though can check if it indeed is defined for debian-deluged and /var/lib/deluged/config, through 'systemctl status deluged' and 'sudo systemctl cat deluged'.
