Then take a look if all of them are choking you ('choked' column in PeerView). Finally, if there are the ones that are not choking you, take a look at the 'requests' column and see if KTorrent has properly sent some requests. You're interested in the first number only: sent_requests / received_requests.


Ok. I look at the Peers tab.
- I see 2 peers
- all of it have CHOCKED column = YES
- REQUEST columns = 0/0 in all my torrents.

What can I do next? :)

Well, that's quite normal. You're connected to 2 peers and they are choking you. There's nothing you can do until they grant you an upload slot. I doubt that the same torrent would work on KTorrent 2.0.3 unless you get some more peers somehow.

I'd say that torrent is not really healthy, only 2 peers is not much. Do you get incoming connections? You can see that if you take a look in your log file and search for 'Authentication(S):' messages. Do you see any of those?

Yes. I see a lot of:
Authentication to 194.29.62.103 : ok
Authentication to 212.26.135.210 : ok
Authentication to 193.151.253.77 : ok
Authentication to 193.138.147.227 : ok
Initiating connection to 194.50.85.1
Initiating connection to 194.63.140.194
Initiating connection to 195.138.193.13
Initiating connection to 195.234.97.222
Initiating connection to 195.69.86.152
Initiating connection to 212.26.135.210

I see it with KT 2.0.3 as well as with with KT 2.1rc1.

But, sitauation is 100% reproducible:
download/upload works fine with KT 2.0.3, and does not work witrh KT 2.1rc1. I have seen such situation several times, and I can reproduce it againe and againe.
- I install KT 2.1rc1 - transmition does not work!
- Uninstall 2.1 / Install 2.0.3
- 1 minutes leter with KT 2.0.3 - transimition works fine.
- Uninstall 2.0.3 / Install 2.1
- 1 minutes leter with KT 2.1rc1 - transmition does not work!
- Uninstall 2.1 / Install 2.0.3
- 1 minutes leter with KT 2.0.3 - transimition works fine.
......
...
It can be 20-30(as much as you need) attempts - result will be the same!

So - I try to explaine that with peers all OK. Problem exactly in the KT 2.1xx. (Clients like rtorrent/ctorrent works fine too, and I have tried two windows clients - all ok.).

2 peers for one torrent in my example - it is OK, - this tracker is not so big. I have seen during this expirience more peers - it is does not metter.

One more fact - our tracker have approximately 500 subscribers and only one subcriber have such problem - this is Me, and I have this problem only with KT 2.1. :)

Thank you againe!

Ok. For start I think we need to take a look at your full log file. Change your private IDs or passwords it may contain and send it to my or Georges email.
