wtorrent blank web page.

markp1989 · 2010-01-10 23:29:37

im (trying) to setup rtorrent+wtorrent using the wiki http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/WTorrent

after i run setup, i get a plain white page.

i dont know if i have done somthing wrong, i have done exactly what the wiki says, but i dont know how long ago it was updated.

any one got a wtorrent + rtorrent setup running on arch who can give me some pointers?

thanks Markp1989

Any errors in your web server's logs?

I have to say I tried wTorrent before, and I got it to run but it was dog slow and crapped out on me a lot. I am using ruTorrent now, and it works beautifully.

ruTorrent is by far the best webUI for rtorrent.

Yeah it happens to me everytime there's a new fresh wtorrent/rtorrent install/partition on my setup. I've been at this *crap* for an hour or so, here's what worked for me:

# pacman -S php-sqlite (is not mentioned at all in the wiki)

Enabling SQLite in php.ini

$ sudo nano /etc/php/php.ini

Locate & un-comment the following:

extension=pdo.so
extension=pdo_sqlite.so
extension=curl.so
extension=xmlrpc.so
extension=sqlite.so
extension=sqlite3.so
extension=pdo.so

sqlite, sqlite3 wasn't mentioned by the wiki either but it worked in my case

restart rtorrent/apache or (easier) reboot your system

worked for me

scarecrow,B the TC isn't asking for an alternatie, he's trying to solve his current GUI for rtorrent. You might as well ask him to use windows instead for answer

hey! thanks for the detailed replly (and email) i have been using rtorrent without a gui for the last few weeks, i have all my tv shows auto downloading using flexget and i have set rtorrent to email me when ever a download finishes (never knew about this feature till recent) just need to find a free email to sms gateway that works wiht o2

right now i havnt got arch on this server, i was seeing what distro i would llike it it better, and i found ubuntu easier to set up (i use arch on my desktop and laptop)

il take your points on board and see if i can set up soon i will report back. thanks agian
i couldnt get the web ui working in ubuntu eaither .

Hey thanks a bunch. I don't know about OP but this worked great for me. I added this info to the wiki so in the future people do not have these problems.
