All torrents stuck in Idle - Ubuntu

Post by rcase822 »

I'm using Ubuntu 11.10, not using the gui, but instead using transmission-remote to communicate with the daemon. not sure if this is relevant, though, as when I do open transmission-gtk, I get the same results.

Using Vuze on the same file works, and the file is downloaded.

Code: Select all

transmission-remote -l

Thanks for the reply!

1) According to http://www.canyouseeme.org/, 51413 is open. I'm not sure what else to check (torrents work in Vuze).
2) Changed my 2358974s to 2500s.
3) Removed upload-limit and upload-limit-enabled.

Same results as I posted earlier. Is there any other info that would be useful?

I know it's not a problem with the torrent, as it downloads fine on another machine. It's something with my setup. Are there other logs that may be useful?
