#2353 closed bug (Duplicate)

Deluge uses random ports when "use random ports" box is unchecked.

Reported by: Robert Owned by:
Priority: major Milestone: Future
Component: Unknown Version: 1.3.6
Keywords: random ports incoming connections network Cc:

Description

Problem: Deluge uses random ports when closing deluge and immediately starting deluge again even when the "use random ports" is unchecked. Ports are definitely open on router (double checked and verified using an online portscanner).

Workaround: Close deluge, wait a few minutes then start it again. The problem shows up particularly when closing deluge and immediately starting it again.

Tested using ubuntu 12.04 with Deluge 1.3.5 from the ubuntu repository and deluge 1.3.6 from deluge ppa repository.

Libtorrent version: libtorrent: 0.15.10.0

The problem shows up particularly when closing deluge and immediately starting it again. Not 100% reproducable but if you open close it 5 times or so you it should happen. Sometimes it happens all the time making the program unusable as I am unable to connect to any peers.

This is due to the port being held by your router and Deluge is not able to reuse it so drops back to a random port, there is another ticket that will resolve this issue by adding a 'resue port' option. Using a larger range of ports (~10) including on router usually helps with this issue.

I'm using ports 6888 - 6889 so the port range is probably too small. Thanks Cas.

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
