Hey, I'm using 2.1rc1 and I'm experiencing a problem with a couple of torrents, the error I get is as follows:

Cannot recreate missing files: Cannot symlink /data/downloads/temp/tor74/cache/<filename-here> to /data/downloads/<filename-here>: No such file or directory

The filename looks fine and if I copy/paste the filename to create a new file no problem, so it isn't invalid or anything - any ideas what could be causing the problem and what a possible solution might be?

I'm having similar problems with ktorrent 2.2.7. It says that :
Cannot recreate missing files: Cannot create /mnt/d/tmp/yyyy.avi: No such file or directory
But this is just when opening the torrent or it gives and error that some files are missing.
The partition used is mounted as vfat and this is the fstab entry:
/dev/sdb7 /mnt/d vfat umask=0 0 0
There is still space available and the kernel used is 2.6.26.

Actually after downloading this to a ntfs partition using ntfs-3g I just noticed that I'm having issues when copying it to the vfat partition.
Managed to fix them by modifying the fstab entry to defaults,umask=0 and now a cp -R will work. Krusader however is still unable to copy the file and it's giving about the same error as ktorrent. This is using KDE 3.5.9 and krusader 1.90.
This means it's almost certainly not ktorrent's fault but still any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
