I am having an issue with rutorrent...

When I went to create a torrent after setup, the progress bar ran forever and the torrent never completed...

So I changed conf.php to load mktorrent instead, and that works. The torrent gets created. But upon completion, I go to click the 'Save' button, but it is greyed out and not clickable.

Any help is appreciated.

$useExternal = "mktorrent"; // Valid choices:
// false - use internal realization (may be too slow for large files)
// "transmissioncli" - use program transmissioncli (see http://www.transmissionbt.com/)
// "transmissioncreate" - use program transmissioncreate (see http://www.transmissionbt.com/)
// "createtorrent" - use program createtorrent (see http://www.createtorrent.com)
// "mktorrent" - use program createtorrent (see http://mktorrent.sourceforge.net)
// "buildtorrent" - use program buildtorrent (see http://claudiusmaximus.goto10.org/cm/torrent.html)
$pathToCreatetorrent = ''; // Something like /bin/createtorrent, or /bin/transmissioncli. If empty, program will be found in PATH.
$pathToExternals["pgrep"] = ''; // Something like /usr/bin/pgrep. If empty, will be found in PATH.

No one has an ideas?

I am also having another issue. When I browsed for my files to make the torrent, nothing would show. I figured it was a permission issue, so I chmod -R 777 my data directory. That fixed that part, I could now see all my files. But every time a new file is added to the directory, I can not see it. Why are the permissions not passing over to the new files?

1) You got this for *any* data, or for specific? Your create torrent from file, or from directory?
2) About new files. Is new file accessible for web-server for reading?

1) The save button is not clickable no matter what data i select to make it from. I create the torrent from the the file's folder if it has a folder, otherwise from the file itself.
2) The new files are only getting these permissions 'drwxr-x---' when they seem to need 'drwxrwxrwx' in order for me to select them in rutorrent's browse page.

I have tried reinstalling everything, rtorrent-0.8.9, libtorrent-0.12.9, xmlrpc-c, rutorrent (using svn)... and still not working.

Also, I am running Ubuntu 10.04 32 bit.

Very strange problem. Don't know. I need a SSH+ruTorrent account in your system for saying anything.

'drwxr-xr-x' will be enough. Or you may move rtorrent and web users to the same group.

ok, but why is rutorrent not giving the files those permissions automatically. i should not have to go and chmod the data folder everytime something new is added...

May be, because it doesnt create these files? Try to think - how ruTorrent should do that?

Everything is working now smiley.gif Thanks for stating the obvious for me, that helped solve my problem. Rtorrent was setting the wrong permissions to the files. The save button works now as well, apparently files need 644 permissions.
