I am attempting to install rtorrent and rutorrent on a Synology DS410 NAS device. I have followed this guide to do the install - http://forum.synology.com/wiki/index.php/RTorrent_ruTorrent_HowTo
When I go open rutorrent I get two errors 1. bad link to rtorrent and 2. bad response from server [500].
I have attempted to install xmlrpc-c stable and advance. I get the errors with both. I have also tried to compile with and without the --disable-cplusplus flag, no difference either way.
Here is my rtorrent.conf file
Code:
# This is an example resource file for rTorrent. Copy to
# ~/.rtorrent.rc and enable/modify the options as needed. Remember to
# uncomment the options you wish to enable.

#schedule = ratio,60,60,"stop_on_ratio=200,200M,2000"
schedule = ratio,30,60,stop_on_ratio=200
# Encryption options, set to none (default) or any combination of the following:

#
# encryption = allow_incoming,enable_retry,prefer_plaintext
# Enable DHT support for trackerless torrents or when all trackers are down.
# May be set to "disable" (completely disable DHT), "off" (do not start DHT),
