[Problem] Create Plugin with external tool

[shwetha17]

hey there

if i create a torrent with a tracker url it says under the "created on" field: time/date by ruTorrent (PHP Class - Adrien Gibrat)
some trackers doesn't allow such a long create field

but when i leave it blank it says time/date by mktorrent 1.0

tested with ruTorrent 2.8 (plugins: choose / create / datadir)
and the updated beta v. 3 (plugins: create / darkpal / erasedata / _getdir / show_peers_like_wtorrent)

im a bit confused maybe someone can help me

thx
regards

I'm not 100% sure what you are trying to do.

but, you can pick mktorrent, buildtorrent, createtorrent or transmissioncli as your "create" torrent binary.

Are you saying that when you create the torrent, it isn't working? what exactly is the problem?

If this is a bug you should open a ticket at http://code.google.com/p/rutorrent/issues/entry

i just wanna create a torrent over rutorrent with the create plugin and mktorrent as external tool.

i edited the conf.php in the create plugin folder

Code:
<?php
// configuration parameters

$useExternal = "buildtorrent"; // Valid choices:
// false - use internal realization (may be too slow for large files)
// "transmissioncli" - use program transmissioncli (see http://www.tr$
// "createtorrent" - use program createtorrent (see http://www.create$
// "mktorrent" - use program createtorrent (see http://mktorrent.sour$
// "buildtorrent" - use program buildtorrent (see http://claudiusmaxi$
$pathToCreatetorrent = &#39;/bin/buildtorrent&#39;; // Something like /bin/createtorrent, or /bin/transmissioncli$

?>

but when i create the torrent and put a tracker url in the field, it says this

and when i put no tracker url in the field, just for a test, it says this

and some trackers dont accept such a long "created on" field

i hope ur understanding now what i mean. maybe u can tell me if u have the same problem ?

I do not have this problem at all, but you should open a ticket. This is an obvious issue which should be handled by the ticket system.

1) Field "created on" doesn't exist. Exist fields 'creation date' and 'created by'.
2) Both these fields are optional. 'creation date' contains unix datestamp, 'created by' - *any* string, without any restrictions by length etc.
3) Example of such tracker?

hmm, but when i load the torrent in utorrent it shows me this situation

created with create plugin without adding a tracker url

created with create plugin adding a tracker url

This shouldn't matter bro. Are you sure this is an actual issue and you're not just making your torrent incorrectly?

I have NEVER seen a tracker reject a torrent for the issue you are reporting.
