When i enable the webseed, the torrent does not complete and still need to download five last chunks. The funny part is that there still is a chunk assigned to the webseed host when this happens. The webseed says that there is a connection, but there is no bandwidth coming my way from that.

I experienced this issue on the lastest kubuntu RC kde4 desktop torrent, and i tested it two times... enabling webseed seems to be the cause here.

Webseed bugs, I was waiting for those :-)

I will see what is going wrong.

Dunno whether this should be fixed currently in 3.1.1, but 3.1.1 does not complete this torrent when it nearing end. It says "failed connect to webseed" and 80 chunks are left and not assigned to peers in swarm.

EDIT
Hey weird. When downloading> check data> it gives me that 80 chunks are left to download, when i restart KTorrent to get(the only way) the torrent going again> it says 100% completed. I now do a check data and 80 chunks are now corrupted.
(it also says that the ratio is already matched when i start the torrent(97.05% done), this while the torrent is not 100% completed yet.

When i download the opensuse DVD version from http://software.opensuse.org by torrent, and add the http url, it says in the webseed column: Error: request failed: found

There might be more bugs here.

They have made a multfile torrent with one file, so try this for the webseed :

http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.0/iso/dvd/

With a multifile torrent we will append the path of the file in the torrent, to the webseed url.

Note: make sure that you forget the / at the end, so the URL needs to be

http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.0/iso/dvd

The webseed spec requires the client to append the name of the torrent to the url if it ends with a /

It seems we are getting redirected to a mirror and we don't handle this.

Redirection should now be OK, I also found the bug which caused things not to get finished.
