xyzzy Posted July 3, 2006 Report Share Posted July 3, 2006 i just updated to utorrent version 1.6 build474. now half of the torrents in my queue changed to "unknown torrent" and give this error for statusError: can't open .torrent file:(and the path and name of the .torrent file)including one big one (2GB) that was like 90% done.most of the others hadn't started yet, so i could delete and re-download the .torrent file i guess, but how can i save data already downloaded?

Firon Posted July 3, 2006 Report Share Posted July 3, 2006 Did you change the option for .torrent storage?Are the .torrent files in question in the folder it mentions? If not, move 'em there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xyzzy Posted July 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2006 yes i changed those folders, and yes the .torrent files are in the right places. it was working just fine before the auto-update.i did have the "store . torrent files in:" and "autoload .torrent files from this folder" set to the same folder. "Logger" told me not to do that, so i made an "autoload" subfolder and put these problematic .torrent files in therei don't if this helps, but "Logger" says this[23:22:30] Unable to load "<NULL>": Torrent is already loaded!3 times, on utorrent startup. More than 3 torrents are affected by this issue tho... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted July 3, 2006 Report Share Posted July 3, 2006 Uh, you had to put those torrents in the .torrent storage folder, NOT auto-load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MousepadIsDead Posted July 3, 2006 Report Share Posted July 3, 2006 i have the same problem with the "unknown torrent" instead of the real torrent-name in the list. i can see the torrent-name in the path in properties but not in the download-list. can anybody help me?

xyzzy Posted July 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2006 Uh, you had to put those torrents in the .torrent storage folder, NOT auto-load.i'd had trouble before with torrents in the main torrent storage folder not reloading at startup, and putting them in auto-load seemed to help, so i thought i'd try it again....Anyway, I fixed it on my own, but thanks for trying to help. I right clicked on each torrents and chose "Remove Torrent and"-"delete .torrent" (not data!!) Then I went into firefox's download history (luckily most of the torrents were still there) and opened them again from ff's cache. uTorrent opened them just like it oughtta, the ones which were already partially downloaded were "checking" for a while, and now it's good as new, except for 1 .torrent i couldn't find in firefox's downloads window.So I guess the .torrent files got corrupted somehow during the auto-update to 1.6 build 474 process.
