It always says 0, but I currently have two friends downloading.

Hey shmup, this seems to work for me, so I have a couple of questions to ask:

  1. Are you and your friends all on the same local area network (possibly at a university, or a home router)?
  2. Did you change the two settings in config.sh? (You will almost always have to change THS_HOST)

Thanks for reporting issues!

shmup commented 11 years ago

Ah hah, no I left them default. Well, besides changing localhost to 127.0.0.1. What would you possibly change THS_HOST to?

edit: I should just delete the comment, but for historical sake, I'll leave it be. No, I did not read your config.sh comment, which clearly says what to update the THS_HOST to, heh.

shmup commented 11 years ago

For the sake of clarifying, even if this might seem obvious to others:

THS_HOST must not start with http://

The config comment initially confused me, since I basically took it as verbatim, heh.

# If they visit http://foo.com:91 these variables should match that

I literally split it up as is: http://foo.com and 91, instead of foo.com and 91.

Anyways, thanks again!
