AutoWatch not working

what i do is this:

i checkout the entire "trunk" via ssh

Code:

svn co http://rutorrent.googlecode.com/svn/trunk


This gives you:

trunk/rutorrent/
trunk/plugins/

so then i do:

Code:
cd trunk/
rm -r rutorrent/plugins
mv plugins/ rutorrent/


This basically gives you a directory rutorrent/ with all the plugins which are provided on the main svn site in the plugins directory, and it makes it where a single svn up will update everything.


Now, there may be some plugins you do not wish to use....instead of deleting them, i simply disable them using the plugins.ini file


edit:

no, you shouldn't be editing autotools.php unless you know what you're doing, you shouldn't edit ANYTHING except conf.php or config.php files


The only other reason i can think of which may cause autowatch to fail is permissions. It works just fine on every system i test it on.

The permissions are fine - checked those. Looks like I'm simply SOL. sad.gif

I wish the logs would somehow tell me what is wrong...

hrm....


Just so we're on the same page though....

let me show you what autowatch does on my system:



i see this type of stuff in my logs:
Code:
[15.01.11 19:55:11]
[15.01.11 19:55:11] AutoWatch: --- begin ---
[15.01.11 19:55:11] AutoWatch: enabled : 1
[15.01.11 19:55:11] AutoWatch: autostart : 1
[15.01.11 19:55:11] AutoWatch: path_to_watch : /home/rtuser1/rtorrent/autowatch/



and when something if a torrent is added to one of the directories under the autowatch folder, it is picked up and autowatch axtually "deletes" the .torrent file.



so i may see soemthing like THIS:
Code:
[15.01.11 06:57:41] AutoWatch: path_to_watch : /home/rtuser1/rtorrent/autowatch/
[15.01.11 06:57:41] AutoWatch: get_directory : /home/rtuser1/rtorrent/download/
[15.01.11 06:57:41] AutoWatch: torrent file : /home/rtuser1/rtorrent/autowatch/TV/Human.Target.2010.S02E09.Imbroglio.720p.WEB-DL.DD5.1.AAC.2.0.H264-ScT.torrent
[15.01.11 06:57:41] AutoWatch: save data to : /home/rtuser1/rtorrent/download/TV/
[15.01.11 06:57:41] AutoWatch: torrent added : FB7F7D4663CE33E80141E1A9D87E825782F31E40
[15.01.11 06:57:41] AutoWatch: --- end ---


(yes, i keep old logs....silly i know)


So, do you see ANYTHING like this at all?

Nope. I never see it pickup a torrent or error due to permissions or anything.

I see this over and over:

[07.04.11 21:51:45] AutoWatch: --- begin ---
[07.04.11 21:51:45] AutoWatch: enabled : 1
[07.04.11 21:51:45] AutoWatch: autostart : 1
[07.04.11 21:51:45] AutoWatch: path_to_watch : /volume1/torrents/autowatch/
[07.04.11 21:51:45] AutoWatch: get_directory : /volume1/torrents/downloading/
[07.04.11 21:56:46]
[07.04.11 21:56:46] AutoWatch: --- begin ---
[07.04.11 21:56:46] AutoWatch: enabled : 1
[07.04.11 21:56:46] AutoWatch: autostart : 1
[07.04.11 21:56:46] AutoWatch: path_to_watch : /volume1/torrents/autowatch/
[07.04.11 21:56:46] AutoWatch: get_directory : /volume1/torrents/downloading/​

the .torrent files work if I put them in my rtorrent watch directory, so that shouldn't be an issue.
Everything else works perfectly - RSS, Scheduler, settings, etc.

Seemingly none. /tmp/errors.log only shows the message I posted above. (over and over)
/tmp/errors.log and web-server log are the different things.
I'm doubtful it's outdated because I did this install about 2 weeks ago and as wonslung said - autotools hasn't been updated in a while. How do I run updates on plugins?
Yet once. You asking for help. I say you - "update from svn". You say me - "I wan't do this". And? What i must do with this?

so we can consider this thread solved?
Yup. Thanks guys.

So for anyone who comes across this in the future check the few things above and update as well. If you lose your torrents you can get them all back from the sessions folder.
