Thread: Problem "Torrent List Not yet available, connection to rtorrent not established"

i install rutorrent on debian 5 64bit


but i get this message any one can help

I'm not an expert, but I've seen this when I turned off rTorrent through ruTorrent. You have to start rTorrent. I'm not sure what you're supposed to click though since my seedbox looks different.

You have to compile rtorrent and then link it to rutorrent. You should follow one of the tutorials on here. Also, you cut out the most important part from your screen shot, the logger. If you already installed rtorrent, then post your config.php from /rutorrent/conf/ and your .rtorrent.rc file in your home directory here and I can tell you what is wrong.

Hello I have the similar problem;

I just installed rutorrent to my vps using this tutorial

Install rtorrent + rutorrent + apache on Centos with RPMs

According to the tutorial i succeed installing it but i couldnt open rutorrent web UI as the tutorial saying http://myip/r/ and also i tested http://myip/rutorrent but it was also not working i solved it linking it to /var/www/rutorrent to var/www/html with this command
sudo ln -s /var/www/rutorrent /var/www/html. After when i am typing http://myip/rutorrent it is working with some errors as i give the link of the files server error log-conf.php-web ui errors-.rtorrent file.

My System :

PHP : 5.2.17
Web : Apache/2
Web : cgi-fcgi
Centos 5.5

My RTorrent is rTorrent 0.8.6/0.12.6

and there are messages at mainview like this :

( 7:49:49) Using 'epoll' based polling.
( 7:49:49) XMLRPC initialized with 519 functions.
( 7:49:49) The SCGI socket is bound to a specific network device yet may still pose a security risk, consider using 'scgi_local'.

Thanks for the assistance.

the important information is in the log. probably something along the lines "couldnt establish connection to rtorrent. make sure it is running blabla". as said, make sure its actually running and rutorrent can "talk" to it using the ip (localhost probably) and port. both has to be the same for rtorrent, rutorrent and the webserver you are using.

did rutorrent work before? then you probably only have to restart it :)

also keep in mind that if rtorrent is still working (deleting torrent with data for example can take a while), the rutorrent interface tends to be unresponsive as if there is no rtorrent running

This is clean installation and i didnt use this program before so i dont have experience. So i couldnt find rtorrent is running or not cause dont know how (But if it is the one which we start with - screen , rtorrent, ctrl a-d to deatach yes it is working) . I dont know how to set same port for both rtorrent and rutorrent how i can i do this ? Which files i have to add and change.. On other hand i used ip of my vps server is it true should i use the vps ip or should i write local ip which is 127.0.0.1 if you be more directive about this.. will be happy.

Thanks for the assistance.

I am having the same problem, and actually i know the reason of this problem.. i rebooted my box..
Anyone have any ideas lol?

[29.09.2011 13:55:29] WebUI started.

[29.09.2011 13:55:30] Bad link to rTorrent. Check if it is really running. Check $scgi_port and $scgi_host settings in config.php and scgi_port in rTorrent configuration file.
