Add move storage failed alert

Description

Right click on a running torrent (single file one), then choose "Move storage" and enter an existing folder... nothing happens.
The WebUI still shows the old (and default) download folder and torrent download continues there.

I cannot replicate this.

Are you sure the destination folder has permissions?

What format are you entering the folder details? For example I tested with: /home/ubuntu/Downloads

  • status changed from pending to new
  • type changed from bug to feature-request

You're right, it was a permission issue.
I have 3 destination subfolders and one of them was owned by root (I feel so noob).

I think a warning message should be added to WebUI and/or console client.
Both of them do not warn user at all, they simply discard the move command.
So I changed this bug to a feature request.

  • milestone changed from 1.3.4 to 1.3.x
  • summary changed from Move storage feature not working to Add move storage failed alert

There is currently no function in the core to catch a libtorrent 'storage_moved_failed_alert' alert so that creates an issue with compatibility between 1.3 versions. There will be no issue adding it to 1.4 though.
