asellus Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Wow, you need glibc 2.11 minimum with the new version? If there is anything I don't touch in my Linux server, glibc is going to be high on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SleepNow Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Friends .. and how to bind a process to an interface? Maybe there is any setting in the configuration file? I eth1- 0.0.0.0 through it should not be run utorrent. But eth2- a simple interface without a default gateway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is anything I don't touch in my Linux server, glibc is going to be high on the list.This excludes me from using it as well, at least until CentOS updates to 6.0, which uses glibc 2.12. Is there a specific reason why this is being compiled with library requirements that aren't supported by many stable server distributions?

MortenB Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 Thanks for uTorrent Linux release ! After installing everything I need in my Ubuntu "server" (desktop version) I finally had the problem that all torrent client I can find with web gui had a poor download speed. The µTorrent Server alpha (3.0 build 24733) does not !This saves me from Windows 7 on my small ITX server My only problem is that some torrents that would normally create a folder in "new downloads" folder does not. And when that torrent is finished it moves the whole "new downloads" folder to the "finish" folder, containing also the half finish downloads. Result is that all torrents downloading fails since the "new downloads" folder with all content is moved to "finish" folder. So here it stops, with "failed" info on all active torrents except the one that just finished. So moving folder back and force re-check is the only option to get things back working when this happens.I would think the problem is conversion issues between Linux folders and the torrent folder format ?

I was going to start testing today, but I'm still waiting for a code review on a fix for a race condition I discovered last Friday that causes a crash when adding torrents. Once the latter fix is reviewed and committed, and nightly builds/tests pass, I'll be starting a stress test on the next revision, which I would expect to be released next Monday, March 14.

I really look forward to next release.

eggz Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 With the Glib 2.11 requirement the UTserver no longer works on server linux distrubutions?anyway I see it, there is no workaround on my Debian Lenny server edition, since the specific GLIB version is missing.seems I'll have to stay behind the 3.0 release. byebye updates.In any case it had a good run. And heck, it provides just the functionality I need I guess.Seems everything seems to rotate around flashy shiny linuxes like Ubuntu and Fedora.I'm keeping my debian lenny tho; thank you Very Much.

The Debian Lenny VM I'm using to build has:# dpkg -l | grep "C Library"ii libc6 2.7-18lenny6 GNU C Library: Shared librariesii libc6-dev 2.7-18lenny6 GNU C Library: Development Libraries and Heaii libc6-xen 2.7-18lenny6 GNU C Library: Shared libraries [Xen versionii locales 2.7-18lenny6 GNU C Library: National Language (locale) da# Is 2.7 early enough? If it would be useful, I'll see about releasing the Debian Lenny builds as well as the Ubuntu builds for next release (although the Debian Lenny build won't be stress tested this time since I don't have a local machine running Lenny - it is the identical code and revision as is built on Ubuntu). Post if releasing this Debian build would help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcdonald Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 Seems everything seems to rotate around flashy shiny linuxes like Ubuntu and Fedora.My intent in keeping up with upgrades is more to obtain fixes for security problems. Although, I'm not tracking specific open-source products to see if upgrades do in fact resolve security issues, and I don't expect to have time to do so. Sometimes upgrading is beneficial for obtaining bug fixes, especially for gcc.I'm OK with the "don't fix it if it isn't broken" way, but I also consider security vulnerabilities to be evidence of breakage and worth an upgrade.

chasingsol Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 Is 2.7 early enough?CentOS/RHEL 5 and other derivatives are using glibc-2.5. To throw some numbers out there, CentOS/RHEL holds a 44.1% market share for commercial Linux server distributions. A large number of people, myself included, use at home what they do at work. Excluding such a technically savvy base from being able to use uTorrent Server seems to be misguided. While I can appreciate your assertions regarding security updates, I am unaware of any that require uTorrent Server to be built with such relatively new versions of glibc.Certainly it would be unwise to support ancient distributions using outdated libraries, but you're excluding current ones with massive market share. If the intent is to get uTorrent Server used by a large number of Linux users, which I assume it is, then perhaps you can reconsider your desire to build it using libraries only available on cutting edge desktop distributions.

zombieapocalypse Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 The utserver has been working very well for us for a few weeks now. Thanks for all the hard work!The one feature we are missing is status messages from the trackers. For instance if there is a wait time in effect, or if this version of the client is banned, there is currently no way to see these types of messages. It would be extremely useful for troubleshooting purposes if we could see the error messages from the trackers.Hopefully the utserver team will be able to incorporate this feature into an upcoming release!Thanks,~ZA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
