[almost solved] torrent seems to freeze bubba?

Post by dsp76 »

Hi,
I try to use the torrent on this page: http://www.tuxdistro.com/torrents-details.php?id=398

But whenever I added the torrent file to my torrent directory, bubba reacts like frozen, and download won't start - even with that many sources...

Anything I missed?

Hi dsp76,

I tried this torrent, putting it in the 'torrents' folder, and nothing went wrong.

Regards.

Hi dsp76,

I also have tried the torrent and it works for me to. Could you contact us at support@excito.com if this persists and we will try to figure out what is wrong.

Hi,
an update on this. I emptied both the whole download folder and the torrent folder. After that no ftd crashed happened anymore.

Furthermore an interesting finding, why some torrents don't actually start. Some websites seem to have implemented some registration, before the torrent works... I needed to use LYNX as browser on bubba, to sign into the website, accept the cookie and the torrent started to download!

Havn't checked yet, but if your bubba and your PC are behind the same router, it should maybe also work with (as its the same IP outside).

Good luck

I tried it:
It doesn't work - as it looks like, the cookie need to be placed at the bubba. So lynx seem to be the only way to start a download in that cases...
