Problem with data plugin

[dsouvik215]

I am trying to download completed files from within rutorrent, using the data plugin. Seeding & starting torrents works perfectly fine, but clicking on "get data" results in errors of:

"Web-server user can't access the data of this torrent."

and sometimes:
Code:
"JS error: [http://my.url/ : 321] Permission denied for <http://my.url> to get property HTMLDocument.location from <moz-safe-about:neterror?e=fileNotFound&u=http%3A//my.url/plugins/data/action.php%3Fhash%3HASHHASHHASHHASH%26no%3D0&c=UTF-8&d=Firefox%20can%27t%20find%20the%20file%20at%20http%3A//my.url/plugins/data/action.php%3Fhash%3HASHHASHHASHHASH%26no%3D0.>.

Oddly, occasionally jpeg files are able to be downloaded, while movie files are not.

I've checked my permissions, and the download directory has read access enabled to the web-server user. I've also done "chmod -R +x" and "chmod -R 777" to my rutorrent installation directory.

Running Debian 5.04, Apache2 2.2.15, PHP 5.3.2-1

Anyone have any ideas?

the webuser has read access to your downloaded files?

if so i'd say your install is broken somehow...it could be a php error of some kind...please post any webserver error logs

I'm able to browse the download directory using apache, and can download files from there, so the www user definitely has read access to the files. I checked my apache error logs, and there's nothing related to the issue, unless SNMP is involved somehow:

Code:
= { laEntry 2 }
Cannot adopt OID in UCD-SNMP-MIB: laIndex ::= { laEntry 1 }

is this the latest svn?

do you have a command line php installed?
if so do you have it set up in config.php



I know on every debian based system i've set up in the past month it's worked fine so we've got a problem somewhere on your system...hopefully we'll figure it out

Latest SVN, as of earlier this evening.

this all looks fine...I'm not sure what your problem is....We likely need to wait for novik to get back from his holiday...did you make any changes to your php.ini files?

which version of php are you running?


just to be sure is it the data plugin giving you trouble (downloading via http)

not the datadir plugin (moving files from one spot to a new spot)


i'm thinking this is either a webserver issue
or a php issue

 

[das329717]

-No changes to the php.ini files, everything is stock except for the config.php.

-PHP is version 5.3.2-1, from Debian unstable

-It is indeed the data plugin, the one used for downloading via HTTP

-I think you're probably right about it being an apache or PHP error. It's pretty weird!

I haven't done this yet, but thank you very much for the help. It is greatly appreciated

 

[jith45]

and this error only happens on SOME files?

and changing thier permissions manually doesn't do anything?


This is quite strange....are you running any non-stock modules in apache other than mod_php and mod_scgi (and perhaps mod_ssl)

 

[somus1735]

Apache2 modules installed:



It appears that I can *mostly* download small files, like jpeg or subtitle files. As soon as I try for anything larger than a few megabytes, it won't work.

Oddly, I tried it in Internet Explorer instead of Firefox, and got the following error:
"JS Error: [http://MY.URL/ : 204542445] Permission denied"

 

[shwetha17]

i don't know what to say man....it seems like a permission problem or a webserver config problem or a php problem.

Like i said, the software itself works fine when it's set up right....i wish i could be of more help...i feel really bad just saying "works for me" but at this point, without access to your machine, that's all i can do.

 

[dsouvik215]

No problem, I appreciate you trying to help anyway!

 

[das329717]

I get the same error. If i use IE I can grab small files like jpegs and stuff. If i try to grab a avi file or something large it complains. In firefox I can't even grab the small files.

 

[jith45]

OK did some more testing.

I used this syntax to create test files

dd if=/dev/zero of=31meg bs=1M count=31

and then used rutorrent to create a file and send back.

the largest file it will send back is 31mb, if you try 32mb it fails. 10mb files ok, 4mb files ok, etc.

any clues?

 

[somus1735]

Insufficient memory for PHP. Try to upgrade plugin from svn.

 

[shwetha17]

as novik says, try the latest svn of both rutorrent and the plugin.

 

[dsouvik215]

i used the data plugin from SVN and now it works for larger files.

I did a diff on it and this is all I see different

diff ../OFF/data/action.php action.php
49c49,50
< @readfile($filename);
---
> ob_end_flush();
> readfile($filename);

Glad it works however, thanks for the assist.

 

[jith45]

I'm having a different problem that the OP. For me, the data plugin doesn't show up in the menu at all. I've installed several other plugins that have worked fine. The Only thing I've noticed is that I don't have a 'View' option in my menu as shown in the plugin screenshot. What am I doing wrong?
