Web UI - Only works sometimes

[thefuturism]

I recently set up Web UI (0.370) with µTorrent (2.0.1) and it doesn't work all the time.

When I turn on the computer with µTorrent, I can access Web UI from any other computer - but if I close the browser window and try to open it again later, it won't load. I have to restart the µTorrent computer before I can access the Web UI again.

I'm not sure why this is happening. I'm running µTorrent on Windows7 and accessing it from Windows XP/Vista - if it's of any interest.

Any ideas or easy fixes? Thanks

What browser?

What internet security software on both machines?

Does the problem persist with 2.0.2, 2.0.3 (beta) or 3.0 (beta)?

I've been using Chrome and Firefox for browsers - same problem in each.

As for security I've been using the free Microsoft Security Essentials.

I can try the beta versions and get back to you on the results.

I've noticed this happen sporadically as well. The only consistency I could find was that it seems to stop working right after a torrent has finished.

i have a similar problem, but mine is that it does not work at first, then starts working.

i am running utorrent on a windows server 2008 rc2 machine. trying to access in firefox. there is windows firewall, but i have added an exception to allow this, and it does get through eventually.

i get an "invalid request error" and then try again a few minutes later, and it works. i change nothing, i just hit refresh. by looking around, most people have this diagnosed as the url is wrong, but it does work eventually, and i dont change the url.

My seedbox has the same problem, I just have to keep quitting, reopening it until it works.

You're running 2.0.3 with the latest WebUI? Delete your existing WebUI and redownload the latest one.
