How to start the various user-interfaces

Gtk:

deluge --ui gtk

Console:

deluge --ui null

Web:

deluge --ui web

Go to ​http://localhost:8112/ default-password = "deluge"

I started "deluge" but i don't see the gtk-ui

The deluge command remembers the last interface it started. Be explicit and type one of the full "deluge -u <interface>" commands listed above.

Why is deluge still listed in my system tray even after I close it ?

You closed the gtk user-interface but you did not close the daemon. Choose "Quit & Shutdown Daemon" to close both Daemon and gtk-ui.

How do I start the daemon ?

deluged

How do I start the daemon with logging to console ?

deluged -d

I can't connect to the daemon from another machine

• Configure the daemon to allow remote connections
• Restart the daemon.

Note: do not do this on a public ip , use the webui for unsecure networks.

I upgraded from 0.5 and plugin x is missing

1.0 is a rewrite, all old 0.5 plugins have to be rewritten.

How do I install 1.0 ?

How do I install 1.0 SVN ?

First you need to install the necessary dependencies. In Ubuntu and Debian, do this:

$ sudo apt-get install g++ make python-all-dev python-all python-dbus python-gtk2 python-notify librsvg2-common python-xdg python-support subversion libboost-dev libboost-python-dev libboost-iostreams-dev libboost-thread-dev libboost-date-time-dev libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-serialization-dev libssl-dev zlib1g-dev python-json

Next you need to get the latest revision from SVN and build/install it:

$ svn co http://svn.deluge-torrent.org/trunk
$ cd deluge
$ python setup.py build
$ sudo python setup.py install

If you have already checked the source out and simply want to update your current tree, then do the following in the deluge directory:

$ svn up

The files tab shows a different percentage-completed than the torrent

The files tab will only show percentages based on completed pieces while the main view will show total completed including incomplete pieces.
