Stonetkke Posted December 16, 2010 Report Share Posted December 16, 2010 Hi,I updated to the latest public build of the uTorrent linux one week ago. Today I recognized, that all the new torrents since that downloaded into that folder what I selected in "Put new downloads in:". With the previos versions, the client always made a sub-folder, with same name like the torrent. It seems this function "dissapeard" in this version.I tried the following:- Replace the binary/webgui.zip with the previous one - the folder creation works again- Create new settings.dat file with the latest - No sub-folders creationThe folder where I download the stuffs is a mounted drive with ext3 file system.Could you please advise what could be wrong?Thanks.Best regards,Stone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denngie Posted December 19, 2010 Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 You need an ending slash, that solved the problem for me First I specified /torrent/temp and it didn't create the folder for the torrent only dumped all the files therewith /torrent/temp/ it creates the folder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonetkke Posted December 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 Hi,Thanks for the suggeston. As I didn't changed the config file and it worked with the previos versions, I definitly tought it is a bug in the new release. (as I always change the executable and the webgui files, but keep the rest.Yesterday I just investigate further and I found out what cousing this issue (at lease I found a workaround):I have more sources for torrents. some comes from file, uploaded from my computer. Some of them come from URLs. It seems this issue affect only those, what I import with URL. I tried to download from the URLs to my computer the .torrent files, and I saw that the filename contain a % mark. If I removed that character, and uploaded the file manualy than the utorrent created the folder after I started that. If I used the direct URL access, than it doesn't create the folder when I started it. I checked both cases, and the filename is same, what the utorrent store on the server, the special carater in the pre-fix, what the utorrent somehow remove after the upload.I don't know if this helps to investigate this further, but it's really strange that this function somehow works on strange way compare with the previous versiones. (At least I found a workaround, and I'm very happy with the new release label functions, as I really missed that.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
