Not Downloading/Connecting to Peers #117

Closed HNGamingUK closed 5 years ago

HNGamingUK commented 5 years ago

Hello

So I have the docker container installed on a Debain 9.7 VM.

I can access the WebUI however when I add a torrent it connects to the trackers fine by the looks of things but then it fails to download/connect to peers. It also show the torrent as Queued.

I am unsure which logs you require so please do tell me and I will provide them to you.

Just commenting on this in case it helps someone else. I had similar symptoms, but it turns out my issue was caused by mergerfs mount options. rTorrent requires mmap to work correctly, and some configurations disable it by default.

I'm using OMV and I needed to change cache.files=off to cache.files=partial in the mount options for union filesystems.

You can read more about mmap and cache options in the mergerfs README: (permalink) StackExchange post: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/183534/rtorrent-wont-start-downloading-to-9p-shared-folder
