Hi,

I've got some sudden problems with configuring scgi...

I have rtorrent/rutorrent running on my Ubuntu 11.10 server, installed with Brock script. Was running fine.
Today, I noticed rutorrent was down, for some reason. So ,i restarted rtorrent and noticed this msg :

Code: [Select]
The SCGI socket is bound to a specific network device yet may still pose a security risk, consider using 'scgi_local'.
Starting DHT server on port 6881.
Though rtorrent is working, its using DHT (had set dht=auto and enabled in .rtorrent.rc), after attempting using scgi_port failed.
I couldnt say if it has been like this since the beginning, but I tend to say this is new :/ that would be weird i hadnt noticed before...

Anyway, I tried to change the scgi port (its 23879 on brock's default setup). So ive switched it to port 5000, involving the edit of :
Code:
.rtorrent.rc
etc/apache2/sites-available/rutorrent
etc/apache2/sites-enabled/rutorrent
/var/rutorrent/rutorrent/conf/config.php
/var/rutorrent/rutorrent/conf/users/myusername/config.php
After restarting apache2/rtorrent (even a reboot), im still stuck at the exact same point.
Im out of idea :/ except using 'scgi-local', wich im not really sure on how to proceed this ...

Any help would be a relief....

1) This is a warning message. For avoid security risks you must close scgi port in firewall. DHT port hasn't relation to scgi port.
2) ruTorrent can't "be down". It is a front-end.
3) What is your problem?

My post is totally silly. Irrelevant. Or whatever.

Theres absolutely no problem actually. I ve just badly misunderstood the warning scgi msg. and been somehow confused by the DHT message.

Sincere apologies sad.gif
