triggernum5 Posted October 21, 2005 Report Posted October 21, 2005 Ok, beautiful client!! Its the only BT client that doesn't bog down my p266 w/98se/(.NET Fixed)..Also gotta love the UI/Features..Heres what baffles me though.. Yesterday I was downloading w/1.1.6.1 when I had one of those 98se crapouts that happen really quickly (just when you think the system is going to run all your tasks nicely).. So I rebooted and when the system restarted everything was working execpt utorrent wasn't running?? It actually was listed in the taskmanager, but no UI/Tray.. Tried relaunching, cursor went to usable hourglass for ~4s then nothing except another instance in the taskmanager.. Thought "Hmm this sucks", and swapped out my registry with a backup from an hour earlier.. (BTW, Absolutely no system changes should have occurred in this timeframe)..So I'm up/running with the registry backup except the problem persists..So I wipe the settings and replace the exe.. Still nothing!So I try downgrading to 1.1.5.. Woohoo it works!!!I read about the settings glitch that should have been fixed with 1.1.6.1, but figure I'd try reupgrading anyways.. Same problem..Wish I hadn't deleted my 1.1.6 now that its removed from the site..So basically this post is to inform the devs of this issue.. A solution is more important to my peace of mind than to the usability of 1.1.5 if you are aware of its bugs.. The fact that I can't solve this is driving me nuts..
vurlix Posted October 21, 2005 Report Posted October 21, 2005 uhh yeah... fixed in 1.1.7, as it's been said in many other threads..
mcnabb Posted October 21, 2005 Report Posted October 21, 2005 can we get like.... a ballpark idea as far as when this oh so frequently mentioned 1.1.7 will be available? if i have to go thru the weekend using azureus again, i may end up kicking my cat. :evil:
triggernum5 Posted October 21, 2005 Author Report Posted October 21, 2005 Actually, I just got it fixed myself..I realized that 1.1.6 is still available if you manually enter the address.. So although 1.1.6.1(broken) > 1.1.5 > 1.1.6.1 solves nothing, 1.1.6.1(broken) > 1.1.6 > 1.1.6.1 fixes the problem.Sorry about the extraneous thread.. after posting I realized that there were already threads, they just weren't titled in a way that led me to believe they were worth reading.. I've spent alot of time in forums, so I kinda know what to expect from a thread titled "utorrent doesn't work" by a firsttime poster.Since this is such a strange issue would somebody mind stating the actual cause?
vurlix Posted October 21, 2005 Report Posted October 21, 2005 A deadlock occurs when utorrent 1.1.6 starts after being closed uncleanly.As for the 1.1.6 and 1.1.6.1 binaries stored on the server, they're supposed to be identical (just two different paths)
Solo_Senshi Posted October 21, 2005 Report Posted October 21, 2005 I was about to post about a problem I was haveing with this when I seen this thread. I'm using Windows XP and this was happening after a small power outage. Getting the previous version then upgrading it worked I love this client.
triggernum5 Posted October 21, 2005 Author Report Posted October 21, 2005 Ok, I'm once again confused.. My problem is fixed but I don't know why.. I gotta go md5 them for myself.. If they are identical:a) Why the update?? Wtf is going on with my pc? <JK>
chaosblade Posted October 21, 2005 Report Posted October 21, 2005 Poor cat v1.1.7 should be out today.
silverfire Posted October 21, 2005 Report Posted October 21, 2005 1.1.7 is out, in case people didn't notice, followed shortly by 1.1.7.1
