I'm guessing you haven't got a watch directory set up properly in your 
.rtorrent.rc 
file?

The add file option moves the uploaded file to the watch directory, then it's 
up to 
rTorrent to deal with it.

However, I'll add this code as I can see it being of benefit to others.

Is there such a setting of rtorrent?
It's my fault, I did not know about that :-)

this will work also

change in control.php
// Upload torrent file...
if (isset($r_uploadtorrent)) {
   if ($_FILES['uploadtorrent']['name']!="") {
      $tmpfile=$_FILES['uploadtorrent']['name'];
      if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadtorrent']['tmp_name'],
$watchdir.basename($_FILES['uploadtorrent']['name']))) {
         header("Location: index.php");
      } else {
         echo "Error moving file - check permissions etc!  <a
href=index.php>Continue</a>.\n";
      }
      die();
   }
}

to
// Upload torrent file...
if (isset($r_uploadtorrent)) {
   if ($_FILES['uploadtorrent']['name']!="") {
      $tmpfile=$_FILES['uploadtorrent']['name'];
      if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES['uploadtorrent']['tmp_name'],
$watchdir.basename($_FILES['uploadtorrent']['name']))) {
          @chmod($watchdir.basename($_FILES['uploadtorrent']['name']), 0777);
         header("Location: index.php");
      } else {
         echo "Error moving file - check permissions etc!  <a
href=index.php>Continue</a>.\n";
      }
      die();
   }
}

I recommend setting the permissions. Since the apache user may not be the same 
as the
rtorrent user.

I haven't done a lot of testing on this but it works. I think rtorrent wants -x 
on
torrents.
