Files can't be moved

[nop666]

Ubuntu 21.04, Deluge 2.0.3, libtorrent: 1.2.9.0

Files cannot be moved, either via the "move completed to" setting, or manually via the GUI "Move Download Folder" function. The problem seems to be in in the 'move_storage' function in LibTorrent 1.2.9, per the fix in 1.2.10: ​https://github.com/arvidn/libtorrent/releases/tag/libtorrent-1.2.10

It seems to confirm bugs #3458 new bug "move completed to" doesn't work ​https://dev.deluge-torrent.org/ticket/3458

#3457 new bug "Move Download Folder" does nothing ​https://dev.deluge-torrent.org/ticket/3457

Note that this problem came up for me after upgrading Ubuntu from 20.10 to 21.04.

I don't want to be a whiner, but this bug is a show-stopper for me, as it means that I can't file any new torrents on my media server. This seems to be a matter of just updating the version of LibTorrent. Any advice on how I can do that without building from source myself would be gratefully appreciated!

Definitely a libtorrent 1.2.9 problem. Updating to libtorrent: 1.2.12.0 fixed the problem for me.

[fingers76]

Same thing happened to me and it is a huge annoyance. Could you post instructions on how you updated libtorrent to 1.2.12.0?

Aside from that, how would this ordinarily get fixed?

[nop666]

I used a daily build from here: ​https://launchpad.net/~libtorrent.org You'll need to add the PPA repo.

Will this work for Raspberry Pi (ubuntu 21.10 server) ?

I would assume so. I'm running Ubuntu 21.20 myself. :)

[Harry089]

for someone who is a noob like me, if you want to update libtorrent:

1- Add the Repo

-sudo add-apt-repository ppa:libtorrent.org/1.2-daily

-sudo apt-get update

2- sudo apt install python3-libtorrent

This will update your libtorrent to the latest.

If it helps there is also PyPi install now: ​https://pypi.org/project/libtorrent/
