Thread: rutorrent errors

Hello.

I've been having problem with rutorrent and it's giving me headaches.

Right now I'm seeing these errors:

Error downloading files. Make sure autodl-irssi is started and configured properly (eg. password, port number): Error getting files listing: Error: Invalid port ()! Initialize port in conf.php

This is my rtorrent config. I followed one of the the configs posted by one of the VIPs and I'm also using the KS2G.

Appreciate any help.

Are your ports being forwarded? It seems the ports aren't getting a proper connection.

try restarting your seedbox/server if you dont have that ability open a support ticket with the provider and they should have you fixed, i see that once a week on both of my kimsufi servers
this usually happens if i got 55 or more torrents going at same time regardless of size

your sgci port seems to be unusually set.

Change it to

Code:

scgi_local = 127.0.0.1:5000

Also make sure that is reflected in autodl so go to ~/.autodl/autodl2.cfg and make sure the following line is in there

Code:

rt-address = 127.0.0.1:5000

The value needs to be the same as scgi_local in the rtorrent.rc file so if you ever change one, change the other.

See if that helps

Hi Arakasi,

I did what you've stated above but I can't get rTorrent working.

Error in option file: ~/.rtorrent.rc:21: Could not prepare socket for listening: Address already in use

Line 21: scgi_local = 127.0.0.1:5000

Ok, you must be using that port for something else. Try changing it to something like 5050.

I still get the same error =/

Not sure where I went wrong.

iirc you in .rtorrent.rc have to use scgi_port if you want to use a network socket, not scgi_local

use either:

scgi_port = 127.0.0.1:5000

or

scgi_local = /tmp/scgi.socket

but make sure you put the same thing in your autodl2.cfg file for the rt-address value
