Adding torrents

Post by puscifer »

How do you add a torrent on RC9? I'm on Vista 32 and it's not working for me.

Do you get any kind of error message pop up? Or, if it's not too much trouble if you can post deluge.log.

When you try to add it, is it just the double-click? Or have you tried drag n drop and the add torrent dialog and still doesn't work?

No error. I tried drag n drop, double click and the dialog box, nothing happens. Tried registering the new version with .torrent files but I don't know which file i can use, none of the obvious one seems to work.

I can confirm this problem on Vista x64.
Scanning trac I find http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/ticket/502 but it doesn't encompass the whole problem.
There's no obvious way to set up filename extension association to Deluge 1.0 on Vista.
Drag and dropping a torrent-file into Deluga 1.0 doesn't do anything at all. It does display the little '+'-icon when dragging the file into Deluge's window but after release there is no result.
Adding torrents trough Deluge's own Add Torrent interface seems to work though.

Edit: It seems some there are at least some torrents that just won't load at all, not even through the "Add Torrent" dialogue. It has worked before but doesn't anymore.

The new version doesn't remember my torrents. I managed to add them only to find out they're gone on the next restart. Thanks for the hard work but its still not ready, at least for windows.

I can't add either. Using the add torrents dialogue, I select 'From File' point, in the dialogue I point it at a torrent file and click ok, but no file is added in the 'Add Torrents' box, and nothing happens when I hit the '+ Add' button.
Drag and drop doesn't work, and associating with deluge.cmd doesn't seem to do anything either.

Upgraded to 1.0.2, and....
Still no joy, except that the auto add folder works :) So at least I can add files easy enough now.

I realise the devs probably aren't looking at this one because they can't reproduce it, so is there any way I can turn on logging or something to get extra information?

Just upgraded to 1.0.3, still no joy adding torrents in the normal manner. At least I can use the autoadd folder to add them, and deluge doesn't lock up when I delete them.

Looking at deluge.log I find the following error when I try and add:

Code: Select all

[DEBUG   ] 17:44:18 config:139 save_timer: None
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "c:\Program Files\Deluge\lib\site-packages\deluge-1.0.3-py2.5-win32.egg\deluge\ui\gtkui\addtorrentdialog.py", line 488, in _on_button_file_clicked
    self.add_from_files(result)
  File "c:\Program Files\Deluge\lib\site-packages\deluge-1.0.3-py2.5-win32.egg\deluge\ui\gtkui\addtorrentdialog.py", line 185, in add_from_files
    import deluge.libtorrent as lt
ImportError: DLL load failed with error code 182
[DEBUG   ] 17:44:21 addtorrentdialog:565 _on_button_add_clicked
[DEBUG   ] 17:44:21 client:206 Attempting to add torrent files: []
[DEBUG   ] 17:44:22 torrentview:450 on_button_press_event
(there's nothing from deluged.log from the same time period)

Looks to my (entirely untrained) eye like it's failing to load libtorrent, the relevant snippet of code is:

Code: Select all

    def add_from_files(self, filenames):
        try:
            import libtorrent as lt
        except ImportError:
            import deluge.libtorrent as lt
        import os.path
        new_row = None
buggered if I know what that means but hopefully it'll help the devs...

Looking at it, loading torrent files from the AutoAdd folder is done by deluged, where as this is an error in the ui somewhere. (I think)
