Tracker returned an error: Connection failed
Tracker returned an error: Connection failed
Hi..
I've upgraded to the lastest transmission..
When I add a torrent with UDP trackers I only get this Tracker returned an error: Connection failed.
I have to enable DHT to get the torrent to download..
Anyone got a soulution on what I'm doing wrong?

Re: Tracker returned an error: Connection failed
I found that if you go into the Transmission preferences then the network tab...check the box for "randomize port on launch". This will choose the best port.

Hi, I am having the same problem, it just started happening recently, I tried checking on the "randomize port on launch box" but it only works for a minute or so, then the error comes back again and again, any other options here?
Thanks
Thanks
Re: Tracker returned an error: Connection failed
Is the tracker online?
Re: Tracker returned an error: Connection failed
yes the tracker is online
It's downloading when the DHT is on.. But still with the errormessage.

DHT and trackers are completely unrelated.pezman wrote:yes the tracker is online

What tracker is giving that error message?

Re: Tracker returned an error: Connection failed
I am having the same problem.
I have been using Transmission for a few years without many problems.
Recently many Magnet torrents fail to down load or alternatively stop with this error message.
I can normally get things going again by rebooting Transmission.
I'm using Transmission 2.60 (13375)
Trackers just now are
udp://tracker.example.com:80 ( its not example its openbittorrent.com )
Apparently just this tracker at the moment.
Its been happening for about a month now, I don't recall if that fits in with an update or not.
I have noticed that even though I have port forward settings the listening port only shows open about 10% of the time. This may be a read herring.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Re: Tracker returned an error: Connection failed
Another update.
Still nothing moving on the iMac. I have tried UTP and DHT on and off.
I have also tried using a different mac , no luck.
So I (in desperation as the GF is home and demanding to know why I haven't downloaded True Blood yet) tried the AC Ryan that sits in the corner being unloved. (Much prefer WDTV)
Bingo downloading like a good one.
PEX , DHT and UTP enabled LPD not.
Port open. On the Macs with the same port forwarding set ups the port remains closed.
Allow encryption
Thats about it.

Re: Tracker returned an error: Connection failed
I don't think that this is the case as the same torrent that has problems downloading on a Mac has no problems downloading on the AC Ryan , both machines use Transmission as the client.
DHT I have tried on and off.
Also since the upgrade to 2.61 the web GUI has stopped working on the Macs , I will check which version the AC Ryan is using but the GUI is still working. All these machines are still working.

Re: Tracker returned an error: Connection failed
I have the same issues with Transmission 2.51 (13280) on ubuntu 12.04. I have only 1 torrent. The list of trackers has only 1 line:
Wireshark shows that when I start Transmission there are a lot of A and AAAA DNS unsuccessed queries for the "udp" name. When I change tracker to
just nothing happens.
Just for to be sure. There is a code of "dumper" that should write all data that anyone sends to 6969 port and there is nothing. Deluge works well.
I've tried to compile the latest transmission from https://build.transmissionbt.com/job/trunk-linux/, but ./configure said that
Code: Select all
udp://127.0.0.1:6969
Code: Select all
udp://localhost:6969

I've tried to do apt-get install openssl, but it is already here. I do a little bit HATE gentoo-way to use software so I can't check this bug in the latest build, but there are no one said that this bug is gone so I assume that this topic still actualblah-blah-blah...
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking for OPENSSL... no
checking for OpenSSL... configure: error: Cannot locate ssl
