[remus28]

[email protected]:~$ sudo bash rtsetup deb7ubu12
Installing git
Installing rtinst deb7ubu12
Installation complete

You can now run rtinst and the additional supporting scripts
[email protected]:~$ sudo rtsetup release
Note: checking out 'v1.4'.

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout.

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example:

git checkout -b new_branch_name

HEAD is now at 939f7c4... Update rtadmin
[email protected]:~$ sudo rtinst
Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS
Only Ubuntu release 14 and later, and Debian and Raspbian release 8 and later, are supported

Check Installing on Older OS * arakasi72/rtinst Wiki * GitHub to see if it is supported by an earlier rtinst release
[email protected]:~$ -d --dload
-d: command not found
[email protected]:~$ sudo rtsetup
Already using the latest version, rtinst v1.4
Do you wish to reinstall rtinst y/n? y

After installing rtinst deb7ubu12 run rtinst.

When you run the rtsetup command for the 2nd time with the argument 'release' it installs the latest version of rtinst, which does not support ubu12.

So you need to run 2 commands only:

sudo rtsetup deb7ubu12
sudo rtinst

I installed script and it went all good and now I have running seedbox. I've few question.

Can I update my FTP port now? If yes, how?

Edit /etc/vsftpd.conf, find listen_port and change for yours, then restart vsftp service vsftpd restart

I want to increase rtorrent port range, how do i do that?
Thanks.

if you want do it just for current user edit /home/user_name/.rtorrent.rc find network.port_range.set and change them then use rt restart. Same change you can do in webui but if you restart yours rutorrent then all change will be changed for default. If you want get that changes for everyone user you have to edit /etc/rtinst/conf/rtorrent.rc

hi,
no, you can choose the nick/username you want. Root has to be ssh-access-disactivated, better

Plex installation

Hi,

First time trying your guide and all installed perfectly! thank you.

I was wondering if you would be able to guide me for installation for Plex.

Thanks,

After following the directions exactly to install the script on a brand new server, I can log into the ruTorrent web interface just fine. When I add a torrent, it says it was added successfully, but nothing ever appears in the list of torrents at the top of the window. From what I can tell with my limited knowledge of Linux, it appears no files are being created.

This is on a Ubuntu 16.04 64-bit machine. It's a KVM machine on FranTech/BuyVM.

Any ideas?

Do you have write access to your configured download directory?

I figured out my issue, and it was incredibly dumb... the torrent files I was using for testing seemed to be corrupted or something. They did not work on any installation of rTorrent/ruTorrent I tried through all sorts of methods. So it wasn't the fault of rtinst at all. Once I figured out the issue I blew out my installation and started over from scratch with rtinst again and now everything is working like a dream.

Thanks for this awesome script, Arakasi!

Sorry do not use this plugin so no idea.

How to use other hdd (vdb) as download directory ?

You will need to mount it, and then just point to it in the .rtorrent.rc file. Search on google for how to mount volumes in unix.
