Is the stop_on_ratio setting working for you?
In my /opt/etc/rtorrent.conf i have the line stop_on_ratio = 120 but this morning i recognized that there was a torrent with a ratio over 2,2 and still seeding?
So it seems that this command was not recognized by the client.
Edit:
The stop_on_ration command like it is showed all pver the Thread is simply wrong. It has to be combined with a scheduler Task, like it is explained in the sample rtorrent.conf.
Can someone please just post a WORKING guide from start to end!
The existing guide must be OUT-OF-DATE, because I(and others) keep getting Time-out issue!
I tried to sum up what everyone has written in this thread, and sofar i got nowhere.
I'm getting annoyed in using Enhanced Torrent, because its SO buggy!
Please help, thanks

Are you sure you also forwarded ports on internal router to you access point. Opening port on your router will not work , for other devices behind router.Quote:

Can someone working post:
Guide
or
Firmware version
Rtorrent/Libtorrent versions
etc.
Thanks

Whooooo.........somehow i got it working!!?!?!?
I don't know how, but i would guess, that it is cause by a update.
I did a "ipkg update" and afterwardx a "ipkg upgrade" and then did gouryella's setup again and everything is working fine now - no longer timeout issue.
Thanks goes out to the ones who tried to help me out:)

Hi everyone, ¿Is there any way to get rtorrent to exit automatically when all the torrents are finished or had been deleted?
Hi guys,
I got rtorrent running, and I like it alot. The possibilities automatization are great. However, I still got an error when downloading for some time. I got the message: file chunk read error: cannot allocate memory. I tried to figure out what was going on, and noticed an option called max_memory_usage (see http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/wiki/R...formanceTuning). I have tried using several values (at the moment 105306368), but still the error message pops up all the time. How did you solve this issue?
Thanks for thinking with me,

I'm using oleg's 1.9.2.7-10 firmware
Any help is much appreciated.
Hi,
rtorrent runs great on my asus. I had some memory problems initially, but with the latest release that seems to be fixed. I installed rtorrent as described at the beginning of this thread, however I did not use lighttpd. After installation of rtorrent (be sure also libTorrent is installed, but that is present on your list), I edited the startup script at only 2 positions:
then at the beginning make a change:Code:nano -w /opt/etc/init.d/S99rtorrent
(if you don't, you will get an error message)Code:dirlayout=RTORRENT_Custom
A littlebit further in the file you will find user=
(or other name, that you use to login onto your router)Code:user="admin"
Be sure it is executable:
These settings should take care for rtorrent to find its config file (located in /opt/etc/rtorrent.conf)Code:chmod +x /opt/etc/init.d/S99rtorrent
Next I edited rtorrent.conf using:
Code:nano -w /opt/etc/rtorrent.conf
And you should open up some ports in your firewall:Code:# This is an example resource file for rTorrent. Copy to
# ~/.rtorrent.rc and enable/modify the options as needed. Remember to
# uncomment the options you wish to enable.

install somewhere on your pc,
connect to your rtorrentsession choosing SSH, give the host adress (ip of your router) and login data. The great thing about ntorrent is that you don't need to put additional crap on your router. I tried it with lighttpd and a website user interface (like webtorrent or so), but I think ntorrent is more reliable.
In my setup I have the impression it runs better than transmission, after a couple of days it still downloads at full speed:D, and in contrast of transmission, it remains responsive. Also, it starts automatically torrents found in the source directory, after finishing the torrents it starts seeding until a certain ratio is achieved (in my case set to 1.1). There are even more options which you can find here:
I hope this is helpful for you,
good luck,
Ecori
ecori...
You are my savior!!! Your howto worked!! I'm downloading at full speed now!
Thank you very much!!
You're welcome, nice to hear that it works for you too. I tried rtorrent while also transmission was installed. It appeared to me, that rtorrent was running better. So, also for others who would like to try, just give it a shot!
Tried transmission. The fastest speed I got was 2 kbps. LOL.
This procedure by ecori would also load rtorrent on startup. no need to type the console command every time you restart :D
Hello.
I installed rtorrent and did all configuration, but i still can't download. Every time I start torrent downloading I get "Closed torrents due to low disk space" error, but my disk is empty?
Any suggestion?
Thanks.
Hi Spigot,
I don't recognize your error, however I can imagine that this would happen if rtorrent thinks that there would not be enough free space on your harddrive. Perhaps you could try to change inactivate the rule:
schedule = low_diskspace,5,60,close_low_diskspace=10000M
by adding a # in front of the line, ie.
Code:# schedule = low_diskspace,5,60,close_low_diskspace=10000M
Hi ecori,
thank you for your help.
That was first thing I did, but without any change. Torrent starts and then stops with this message.
