Deluge Forum

Just installed deluge successfully on ubuntu 7.04 feisty. I opened deluge, installed plugins, then I located the desired .torrent, downloaded, created a torrent-file. When I wanted to start downloading, deluge refused to open! What to do?

start it from command prompt and let us know if it gives an error. which version of deluge? from our site? feisty's repository is ancient.

Downloaded deluge for feisty from your site.

This is what I got from the terminal:

gurkan@gurkan-desktop:~$ deluge

My deluge download: the package for i386. And not the torrent file (as I don't have a functional .torrent client yet )

what does deluge --version spit out?
what do you mean by 'installed plugins'? non-official ones already in the client? or do you mean enabling official plugins?
do you still get that if you `rm -rf ~/.config/deluge`?

Got this:
gurkan@gurkan-desktop:~$ deluge --version

Maybe I didn't understand how to write the last command?

I just meant enabled official plugins

no "sudo apt-get" before it...just `rm -rf ~/.config/deluge` straight in the command prompt

I also installed Valgrind, but when I tried to use it, this happened:

gurkan@gurkan-desktop:~$ G_SLICE=always-malloc G_DEBUG=gc-friendly valgrind -v --tool=memcheck --leak-check=full --num-callers=40 --log-file=valgrind.log deluge open
/usr/bin/python2.5: can't open file 'deluge': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
gurkan@gurkan-desktop:~$ G_SLICE=always-malloc G_DEBUG=gc-friendly valgrind -v --tool=memcheck --leak-check=full --num-callers=40 --log-file=valgrind.log deluge start
/usr/bin/python2.5: can't open file 'deluge': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

Wrong command?

Tried that first. Only got this:

root@gurkan-desktop:~# rm -rf ~/.config/deluge
root@gurkan-desktop:~#
