Spanky Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Not sure if this is a bug or something I'm doing wrong but I keep getting the errorfailure: Peer not found. Please restart torrent.This is from a 2 torrents that I was seeding using Az. I downloaded the files again using µTorrent, it go's through it's checking process and then just sits there, but still tells me how many seeds and peers their are, in this case 0 (6) - 0 (4) and 0 (44) - 0 (43) Both these file are seeding at full speed using Az.Any new torrents I download are fine and seed back with no problem. I really want to keep seeding these files, so any help would be much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vurlix Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 "failure: Peer not found. Please restart torrent." is a typical tracker error.Removing the torrent from the download list and redownloading it from the original site the torrent came from usually fixes this.

Spanky Posted September 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Did that and still no joy. This is the only thing stoping me from moving to µTorrent full time.Where does µTorrent store it's .torrent files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vurlix Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 By default it stores them in your profile's application data folder, which probably looks like this:C:Documents and SettingsyournameApplication DatauTorrentuTorrent does not re-use torrents from this folder, so it is better left alone. Some details about how and what is stored is likely to change in new releases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spanky Posted September 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2005 I still have the same problem, I only seems to happen on one site, any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zebulon Posted September 25, 2005 Report Share Posted September 25, 2005 Same thing happens to me... Sometimes, I manage to start the seeding, but there's still that stop sign over the green arrow (+the error message that goes with it). In this case, I'm seeding but I'm not reported to the tracker. Which means I receive no credit for my upload. Rather annoying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spanky Posted September 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2005 This is a great little prog that I would recomend to anybody (except potuk users)I've tried everything I can think of. Stopping the download, removing it from the program, deleteing the .torrent file, re downloading the file, changing my pass key on the tracker. But I still keep getting the same error.The same files work fine using Azureus. It seems it only happens to files from potuk, other sites are fine.As soon as I can resolve this problem, I will be sweching to µTorrent full time.Please help.

eva.02 Posted September 27, 2005 Report Share Posted September 27, 2005 i think one of the problems is the program doesn't seem to be updating trackers when you just click exit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 27, 2005 Report Share Posted September 27, 2005 i think one of the problems is the program doesn't seem to be updating trackers when you just click exit.True : you have to click "STOP" before exit client or you'll appear on the tracker's peer listing until its next update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
