This is the best UI for rtorrent. Icredibly easy to install ("install", hehehe), looks good, and most importantly, works (as opposed to quite a few other UI I've tried that didn't).
Code is based on uTorrent WebUI.
Screenshot:
http://vif2ne.ru/nvk/stuff/novik/rtorrent/webui.jpg
Prerequisites
1) rTorrent (i recommend version >= 0.8.2)
2) Web server with php support (lighttpd, for example)
3) Web browser. IE6, IE7, FF2, FF3, Opera 9.x, Safari 3.x, Konqueror 3.5.x are supported.
Installation
1) Download this - http://vif2ne.ru/nvk/stuff/novik/rto...torrent.tar.gz [140K], unpack it to www root directory.
2) Next - standard dance around /RPC2.
- add lineto rtorrent.confCode:scgi_port = 127.0.0.1:5000
- add scgi gateway to web server. For example, for lighttpd - in lighttpd.conf uncomment (or add) line "mod_scgi" in server.modules section, edit (or add) section scgi.server like this:
3) In web browser go to http://router.ip:www_port/rtorrentCode:scgi.server = ( "/RPC2" => ( "127.0.0.1" => ( "host" => "127.0.0.1", "port" => 5000, "check-local" => "disable" ) ) )
This is the best UI for rtorrent. Icredibly easy to install ("install", hehehe), looks good, and most importantly, works (as opposed to quite a few other UI I've tried that didn't).
I like the interface, it is very alike to uTorrent WebInterface.
I set it up (following instructions) but cannot make it to work. I am getting error in Logger:
can I please get more details regarding this error?[06:22:01] WebUI started.

EDIT: It turned out that I just forgot to restart router.

Hi
Ive just set this up in preference to nTorrent (the java remote controller app I was using). I already had lighttpd and the xmlrpc stuff setup, and the config looks identical to whats posted here.
If i SSH into the router and connect to the webui from lynx, it looks fine. However, if I try to connect via a ssh-forwarded port (eg localhost:8081) i get a 403 Forbidden notice.
Any ideas?
I get a ?xml error with title 403 forbidden and h1 forbidden, then all i see is "loading" .
The permissions look ok to me, and i "install" this 3 times, but no go in any browser.
Some help here pls.
And i do restart ..
fixed it, sorry was my fault - problem with php not being set up correctly.

I am having the exact same problem. Receiving 403 forbidden, and then it just sasy loading... How exactly should I configure php? I have just downloaded the ipkg php - 5.2.6-1 package. Should I do something more???

Is this your own creation, or based off of another rtorrent frontend? I'm not using this on an asus router but a standalone torrent box.
This is by far the best looking rtorrent webui I've seen. Will you continue to support this and do you have a project page?

Êîä:
