Crashes when deleting red (ERROR) torrent (dump file included)

[antd]

System: utorrent 1.8.3 | WINE latest [august 2009] | Ubuntu 9.04 server

This happens the same under WebUI or using the normal utorrent interface.

ALWAYS crashes when I attempt to delete a red torrent.

By 'red' I mean when a torrent has the red X symbol by it. I don't know why some torrents get the red X symbol. I think it's to do with some type of read/write error. Force recheck does NOT work in these cases though.

utorrent will 100% crash if I select 'remove and delete data/torrent'. It will NOT crash if I simply select 'remove'. But of course this isn't good enough as I may have downloaded several gigabytes and I want utorrent to delete that too, instead of hunting around for the data. (very inconvenient when I have 20 or so red X torrents)

I get an error message saying something about "error moving something utorrent .tmp file"

I think it is having trouble moving the 'error torrent'... because if I attempt to open the location of the torrent, the folder is empty!! That's right, even if a torrent has completed 100% and has a red X by it, it seems utorrent is looking in the wrong place for it. As the folder is actually empty.

But really, it cannot be empty, the file must exist. Because I may have uploaded 10GB or so, so obviously it must exist somewhere (maybe this is why the .tmp file gets an error))

Here's the DUMP file after the crash:

(or if above link doesn't work)

16010-utorrent.dbe7.dmp - 0.02MB

I also get a crap load (500 per day) of errors like this, perhaps related to my crash:

Hope this can be fixed.

o.k, first,

the red X flag "means the torrent job has a critical error (check the Status column)"

-by the user manual at the apendix A->main window->torrent job list.

second,

by what u say,

this happens some time after the torrent has started and not immediately.

is it happening only with a specific tracker?

is there any process that could be deleting these torrents or the temp folder content?

it doesn't happen with all torrents.

so something should be messed up with these specific files.

it is possible that they're being deleted suddenly and then this error pops up.

third,

why does it anyway trying to copy these files to another drive?

is it downloading them first to windows and then copies them to ubuntu?

did you just moved to ubuntu and did it happen before?

or it just started out of nowhere?

u'll have to try and be a bit more detailed.

there might be something just broken in this chain...

Edit:

u might want to try enabling 'pre allocate all files' at the general tab, assuring u have enough space needed on you'r drive to handle such large files, and stating it to the OS and client.
