deluge-web and deluge-gtk refuse to connect to a daemon which has autoadd_enable set to true

[Karl Richter]

If autoadd_enable is set to true in core.conf in deluged configuration, deluge-web doesn't connect to it any more. deluged starts as expected and adds all torrents in the auto-add directory. One has to guess when it's finished, stop it, edit the configuration file and start it in order to allow deluge-web to connect. deluge-web sets the value back to true at every start.

There's no feedback in the GUI, console output or log files with log priority debug which indicates a severe misconception of feedback.

I triggered this issue twice by changing autoadd_enable, but apparently that was due to random behaviour - impossible to tell without feedback. The specified reason seems to be not or only partially the reason of the problem.

Have you tried connecting with deluge-console locally and remotely?

Have you tried connecting with deluge-console locally and remotely?

>>> connect 127.0.0.1:58846

Not connected to a daemon, please use the connect command first.

although deluged is running:

[Karl Richter]

The issue was fixed once after a reboot, but I could reproduce it 3 times after a reboot, so the reboot seems to have triggered something that fixes the issue, maybe a race condition.

I have currently this bug in version 2.1.0. Deluge is running remotely as daemon. Communication between thinclient and daemon freezes, when i put files in to the watch folder. As soon as the torrent files are processed, there is communication between thinclient and daemon back online.
