HI @all!
I can't understand - WTF happened with rutorrent (or it's rtorrent issue?)
My Linux-based seedbox (Ubuntu Karmic, rutorrent 2.cool.gif have been rebooted today, and after it some torrents with ratio =>1 not seeding anymore even they belongs to ratio group 7 (min 700% max 700% 20 MB stop). If i press "satrt", torrent starts seeding, but after 5-10 seconds became "finished" again...

Any ideas, what is the root cause of it? Google have not sad.gif

I've seen this happen before. It was due to an issue with rtorrent.

your best bet is to log in via ssh and connect to the rtorrent screen (if you are using gnu screen it's likely
Code:
screen -x)

and see what the message is. This is normally due to the tracker or a ratio setting. The easiest way to fix this would be to do as follows:

download all the .torrents again
and add them back with fast resume (provided you are using the latest rutorrent bits)

Issue is gone...
1) I've updated rutorrent to 3.0 beta - issue still in place
2) Checked free space - about 11G of 951G is free
3) Deleted some files (approx 4G), and start seeding again - BINGO! It's seeding like a charm...

So it's seems like an rtorrent issue about free space, even i've
Code:
schedule = low_diskspace,5,60,close_low_diskspace=100Min .rtorrent.rc, and i suppose low space noticed = 100M

That doesn't sound right. I think it is more of an issue of ratio settings.

Disable ratios and the issue goes away as well.
