rtorrent always auto stops.

[Suitear]

I use 'rt start', then it stops after even 1 seconds. some times it stops minutes after 'rt restart'.

don't know what happening.

Have you tried running it without the benefit of whatever script that is to see if there are any log messages or coredumps?

I tried to open the logging option in .rTorrent.rc, but Everytime after editing it, rTorrent won't start. So I don't know where to look through rTorrent related logs.

I modified the .rtorrent.rc file as follows.

### Set Directories
method.insert = cfg.basedir, private|const|string, (cat,"/home/user/rtorrent/")
method.insert = cfg.watch,  private|const|string, (cat,(cfg.basedir),"watch/")
method.insert = cfg.logs, private|const|string, (cat,(cfg.basedir),"log/")
method.insert = cfg.logfile, private|const|string, (cat,(cfg.logs),"rtorrent-",(system.time),".log")

# Logging:
#   Levels = critical error warn notice info debug
#   Groups = connection_* dht_* peer_* rpc_* storage_* thread_* tracker_* torrent_*
#print = (cat,"Logging to ",(cfg.logfile))
log.open_file = "log", (cfg.logfile)
log.add_output = "critical", "log"
log.add_output = "error", "log"
log.add_output = "tracker_debug", "log"

but after that, rt won't start anyway. it says

No session lock file
Starting rtorrent..........
WARNING: Unable to start rtorrent

So I don't what's going on. How do you guys get the error infos anyway?

Try running rtorrent without the script, e.g. just rtorrent. If your rtorrent.rc is located somewhere else, you might have to run it like rtorrent -n -o import=<path>
