Add Torrent Dialog's ' Download Location' not set correctly when directory typed into Other->Location field

Reported by: beaux_monde Owned by: Cas
Priority: minor Milestone: not applicable
Component: Unknown Version: 1.3.5
Keywords: Cc: slowrobot@…, inbox-sites@…

Description

When I add a new torrent from Mozilla Firefox by choosing "Open with" it is difficult to set up desired save path in adding torrent dialog. I sighted that if I switch between tabs in that dialog then save path sets correctly, but else it sets to my home directory. I run it in KDE.

I am sorry but I am not sure what you are asking for. You could try wording it differently or maybe supply a screenshot of the issue or proposed solution.

comment:2 Changed 12 years ago by beaux_monde

  • Status changed from pending to new
  1. In FireFox? choose some URI with torrent-file; when FF ask what to do with it choose point "Open with Deluge"
  2. Deluge starts (or pops up if started -- no matter) and the "Add torrents" dialog brings up.
  3. Switch to options tab and try to choose a save path.
  4. Press Add button and see that save path (need to turn on this column first) is... your home directory.

I was trying to research this issue but as far as I see this maybe related to that I running KDE. And one more: if between 3 and 4 points above I switched between tabs inside the dialog save path was set correctly.

Thanks I understand the issue now. This could well be a KDE specific issue but I will need to download a KDE distro in order to test it.

I also have this exact same issue in Deluge 1.3.5 on MacOS 10.7.5 Re-adding the torrent (without exiting Deluge) will save to the user-specified location. Re-adding after restarting Deluge will ignore the user-specified location and save to $HOME.

comment:5 Changed 11 years ago by Cas

This is odd as it has also been reported on Fedora F17

I will look into this further but I could not replicate on KDE specific distro and unless I can replicate it will be very difficult to determine the issue.

comment:7 Changed 11 years ago by hadrons123

I have gnome 3.4 in Fedora 17 and Arch linux and it happens to me too. I have the latest Deluge 1.3.5.

comment:8 Changed 11 years ago by Cas

I have just downloaded and tested with a fresh virutalbox Fedora 17 and I still cannot replicate this. There must be something in the steps that is being omitted.

Are there any errors in logs?

comment:9 Changed 11 years ago by hadrons123

Did you try like this?

Description of problem: When you add a torrent you should be able to download it to a user specified location on your hard disk. But in Deluge 1.3.5 when you select file->add a torrent->options->downloadlocation-> other(scroll down to the lowest in the menu). What ever location you set in "other" is not recognized by the application and it sets itself to default /home/user/Downloads.

So basically the "other" option is not working.

comment:10 Changed 11 years ago by Cas

I could select any directory with the Other option and it would select it and start downloading correctly.

Could try with a new Deluge config (-c switch) or test for yourself with a Virtualbox Fedora it may provide more information.

comment:11 Changed 11 years ago by hadrons123

I could not make it download to my preferred folder with the Other option, Yet. The download starts but at the wrong location. I am using 64bit of Arch, Fedora. I tried both of them right now.

But about the config switch, how do I do it?

comment:12 Changed 11 years ago by Cas

| But about the config switch, how do I do it?

deluge -c ~/deluge_config

Are you using libtorrent 0.16?

comment:13 Changed 11 years ago by hadrons123

my libtorrent version is libtorrent: 0.15.9.0 in fedora 17.

I tried your method but I am getting the same behaviour. deluge -c ~/deluge_config

If there is a way I could post a log output I would be happy to post.

comment:14 Changed 11 years ago by ferp

The above log is from MacOS 10.7.5 and shows me adding a .torrent from $HOME/Downloads, specifying a save location of /var/tmp/, and you can see the torrent get added with options[download_location] set to $HOME instead of /var/tmp.

comment:15 Changed 11 years ago by ferp

Same behavior on Natty with a fresh install of 1.3.1-1ubuntu2, by the way.

I have made a fedora screencast to show what I think is being reported and what I am seeing, just in case I have got the wrong end of the stick...

comment:17 Changed 11 years ago by ferp

Yup that's the right flow. Except, in my case, I specified the directory by typing /var/tmp, which brings up the "Location" field in the "Select A Folder" dialog. When I do it your way, navigating to /var/tmp/ with the mouse, it works.

comment:18 Changed 11 years ago by Cas

  • Summary changed from Add torrent dialog's 'save path' not set correctly to Add Torrent Dialog's ' Download Location' not set correctly when directory typed into Other->Location field

Ah! I can finally replicate the issue by typing in the location field, thanks ferp.

Well now we know neither me nor anyone else here is crazy :P

comment:19 Changed 11 years ago by Cas

Looking into this issue it appears that using get_current_folder() in the file chooser will not return the correct folder in the above situation and the solution is to simply replace it with get_filename().

PyGTK Doc: get-filename()

I applied your patch, but...

  1. In FireFox? choose some URI with torrent-file; when FF ask what to do with it choose point "Open with Deluge"
  2. Deluge starts (or pops up if started -- no matter) and the "Add torrents" dialog brings up.
  3. Switch to options tab and try to choose a save path (using "Other..." option).
  4. Press Add button and see that save path (need to turn on this column first) is... STILL your home directory.

If I try to reopen torrent file and if I choose previously chosen (and therefore saved in pop up list which contain $HOME, Desktop, File system and "Other..." options) then Download location set correctly.

comment:22 Changed 11 years ago by hadrons123

I still have the same issue too. The patch doesn't resolve it. thanks beaux_monde for bringing it up.

comment:34 Changed 11 years ago by pvgoran

It's a bug in GTK+, not in Deluge: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=684128

Though Deluge devs could try to find and implement a work-around...

From the user perspective, I found out that the following allows me to use the directory I choose: select "Other", choose a directory, then switch to "File System" in the drop-down and switch back to the chosen directory again.

The other option is to downgrade GTK+ to 2.24.10.

It looks like this workaround solves the problem.

comment:42 Changed 11 years ago by MasterCATZ

self.core_config = {}

        self.builder.get_object("notebook1").connect("switch-page", self._on_switch_page)

    def start(self):
        self.update_core_config()

mine did not have

self.glade.get_widget("notebook1").connect("switch-page", self._on_switch_page)  

either so do I also add that and remove

self.builder.get_object("notebook1").connect("switch-page", self._on_switch_page)

??

do I change these self.builder to self.glade as well ?

if client.is_localhost():
            options["download_location"] = \
                self.builder.get_object("button_location").get_filename()
        else:
            options["download_location"] = \
                self.builder.get_object

using git master afak I would have thought the patch would have already been applied to it ?

comment:43 Changed 11 years ago by Cas

Since this is a bug in GTK, this hacky workaround will not be applied to our codebase. I am keeping the ticket open to keep track of the upstream bug: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=684128

If you are using git master then self.builder is the new object reference so you simply replace in the diff code above self.glade.get_widget with self.builder.get_object and it should work.
