Thread: Rtorrent + Rutorrent 2017 Seedbox Setup Guide Debian 8.x / Ubuntu 16.x

Tried your steps on clean server running linux 16.04, the only problem encountered was that JS error so ran this sudo apt-get install php7.0-mbstring and restarted it; other than this the seedbox worked great.
But now i tried installing it on different, new server with linux 16.04 (clean install) and when i try to install XML-RPC and ran command ./configure --disable-libwww-client --disable-wininet-client --disable-abyss-server --disable-cgi-server

i get the following error "-bash: ./configure: Permission denied"

i checked the permission using "ls -l" on the xmlrpc-c folder and the permission for each file inside the folder is same as it is on the previous server i installed the seedbox on.

if i skip the above command and type 'sudo make install' i get following output

GNUmakefile:1: srcdir.mk: No such file or directory
GNUmakefile:9: /tmp/xmlrpc-c/config.mk: No such file or directory
GNUmakefile:43: /common.mk: No such file or directory
=======================================
= You must run Configure before Make. =
=======================================
false
GNUmakefile:173: recipe for target '/common.mk' failed
make: *** [/common.mk] Error 1


What to do?
