Thanks Working now..

One little problem when i create the torrent its take very long time

its 600mb

Is there any directory i have chmod?

Coz its not creating the torrent.

a couple things to check:

do you have a command line php installed? i'm not sure if "create" needs it but some plugins refuse to work without it.

It would need to be set in your rutorrent/conf/config.php or rutorrent/conf/users/SOMEUSERNAME/config.php

are you on a 64 bit host? i know 64 bit works better for create (but hyou shouldn't have any issues with such a small torrent actually)

creating a torrent is a very cpu intensive task though.

If you are using a helper program, this might be the issue. did you edit anything in the plugins/create/conf.php file?

 

[dsouvik215]

am using helper mkcreate... what should i configure in the conf/config.php?

still taking time

What do you see at the screen? Attach screenshot, please.

The request to rTorrent has timed out.

Can you understand english?
See this:

$useExternal = true; // Valid choices:
// false - use internal realization (may be too slow for large files)
// "transmissioncli" - use program transmissioncli (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 = &#39;/usr/local/bin/mktorrent&#39;; // Something like /bin/createtorrent, or /bin/transmissioncli. If empty, program will be founded in PATH.

Where you see the value 'true' in the list of valid choices for $useExternal?

 

[das329717]

basically, you need to remove true and put mktorrent

 

[jith45]

make sure to compile mktorrent with multi thread support too

Thanks for helping .

Another problem

Try to correct torrent file...
Done.

Notice: Undefined index: name in /srv/www/lighttpd/rutorrent/plugins/create/correct.php on line 68

Warning: file_put_contents(): The 2nd parameter should be either a string or an array in /srv/www/lighttpd/rutorrent/php/Torrent.php on line 363

Another problem

Invalid .torrent file was created by mktorrent. This file doesn't contain info['name'].
I think, something bad with source. This is a directory without files or something like that.

See my posting above.

 

[dsouvik215]

make sure to compile mktorrent with multi thread support too

HowTo:
on x86
Code:
make USE_PTHREADS=1 USE_OPENSSL=1 USE_LONG_OPTIONS=1 USE_LARGE_FILES=1 NO_HASH_CHECK=1
on x64
Code:
make USE_PTHREADS=1 USE_OPENSSL=1 USE_LONG_OPTIONS=1 NO_HASH_CHECK=1
