deluge-console can't connect when running daemon

To date, I have always run deluged as my user.  I started the deluged daemon (rc.d start deluged) but find myself unable to connect via deluge-console.

[ERROR   ] 10:05:50 client:393 RPCError Message Received!
                                                         --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                                                                 File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/deluge/core/authmanager.py", line 87, in authorize
                                              raise BadLoginError("Username does not exist")

                                                                                            BadLoginError: Username does not exist
                  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The wiki offers no guidance on deluge-console.  Is this expected behavior?  The gtk client works fine btw.

Re: deluge-console can't connect when running daemon

While searching for the problem, I crossed your thread and thereafter, found a solution :

Launch deluge-console as usual.
It will throw the error, but you can still use the deluge shell, so connect to the daemon using this command :

connect localhost user password

Replace localhost by the host if it's a remote machine, user and password by the ones you use in the authentification config of Deluge.
