All downloads paused

Post by kaskade »

Hi, folks.

I've just installed fresh qbittorrent in a Debian 6.0 but, when i add a download, it gets paused. If i start it then it gets paused again.

Any hint?

Thanx a lot in advance !

Where you are downloading to, do you have sufficient privileges and enough space? Though I would think this would error rather than pause...

Hi,

I'll paste the ls in the path where it stores the uncompleted downloads :

-rw-r--r-- 1 kaskade kaskade 2128248832 jul 17 23:53 Batman el caballero oscuro Castellano HDRip.avi

As u can see, download archive is created and it downloads a bit before pauses when i click on 'start' in qbittorrent.

The user 'kaskade' is running qbittorrent and privileges are as u can see below ( uncompleted downloads are stored at /home/qbittorrent ):

kaskade@ks394606:/home$ ls -la
total 40
drwxr-xr-x  7 root    root    4096 jul 17 22:16 .
drwxr-xr-x 22 root    root    4096 jul 17 22:52 ..
drwxr-xr-x 20 kaskade kaskade  4096 jul 18 02:10 kaskade
drwx------  2 root    root    16384 jul  9 15:28 lost+found
drwxr-xr-x  5 kaskade kaskade  4096 jul 17 22:16 qbittorrent

If kaskade can write in /home/kaskade then he must be able to write in /home/qbittorrent too ...

And i have almost a 1TB free where i store downloads ...

kaskade@ks394606:/home$ df -H
S.ficheros            Size  Used  Avail Use% Montado en
/dev/sda1              11G  3,2G  7,0G  32% /
tmpfs                  1,1G      0  1,1G  0% /lib/init/rw
udev                    11M  160k    11M  2% /dev
tmpfs                  1,1G      0  1,1G  0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda2              989G    13G  927G  2% /home

Another posibility is an IPTABLES mess ... let me paste the relevant lines too :

$IPT -F;
$IPT -F INPUT;
$IPT -F OUTPUT;
$IPT -F FORWARD;
$IPT -X;

$IPT -P INPUT DROP;   
$IPT -P OUTPUT ACCEPT; 
$IPT -P FORWARD ACCEPT;

$IPT -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT;

$IPT -A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT;

$IPT -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 6881 -j ACCEPT;    #QBitTorrent
$IPT -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp --sport 6881 -j ACCEPT;    #QBitTorrent

$IPT -A INPUT -j DROP;


But i don't think this could be a problem because i can connect with the tracker and start downloading a bit ...

Does qbittorrent have any log? i would paste the output too

Thanx a lot for your reply and your help !!!


###EDIT###

It's working right now ... maybe it needed a couple or three reboots to operate properly :)

Thanx a lot anyway !!!

You really should use a "random" port just in case your ISP filters the well known torrent port. By random I mean just pick a number that isn't used by another program/process, likely above 6881.
