Remote Torrent Adder stopped working - could not contact Seedbox #312

Closed MohnJadden closed 2 years ago

MohnJadden commented 3 years ago

I've had Remote Torrent Adder working without issues for a year or so on Chrome, sending to my Deluge seedbox. All of a sudden, it stopped working. My seedbox IP hasn't changed, nor have my credentials, etc. Whenever I right click a torrent to send to the remote webUI, I get an error notification: "Could not contact Seedbox, error: cannot read properties of null (reading 'message')." I've been using default link catching without incident.

I restarted the Deluge service on my seedbox, issue persisted. Tried with both the daemon port instead of webUI as normal, issue persisted. I deleted and re-created the server in the WebUI tab, issue persisted.

aight, good effort eliminating some of the variables!

  1. what version of deluge?
  2. go to chrome://extensions/?id=oabphaconndgibllomdcjbfdghcmenci, enable developer mode in the top right, then go to inspect views -> background page. go to the network tab, then hit F5. then try to add a torrent like you would usually, provoking the error. any error logs (red) produced there?

I also noticed Remote Torrent adder stopped working a few weeks ago. I'm using qBittorrent v4.4.0rc1. I tried @bogenpirat suggestion with developer mode. Either I'm doing it wrong otherwise there ain't no network traffic going at all. I've also tried different ports in the add-on web ui to rule that out Attached a print screen showing the error message.

pretty sure you're doing something wrong, there should definitely be requests there if you do everything in the order that the post says.

the error message implies that fetching the torrent already fails. have you tried another source for torrent links than the one that is failing? e.g. https://webtorrent.io/free-torrents

I don't know what the problem was but in remote torrent adder I removed my server and added it again and it started working. Thanks!
