I recently uploaded some .torrent files I made using Ktorrent's torrent maker. While everything is going fine on my end and appears to being going well for most of the downloaders, one person reported that they get this error message when trying to open the .torrent:

Code: Select all

This is not a valid torrent file. (not a valid bencoded string)

I'm assuming this is most likely due to a problem on the downloaders end(either in their client, or the .torrent was corrupted during download), but I felt it would be a good idea to ensure the problem isn't in Ktorrent's torrent maker.

If you can send me the torrent, I can verify it everything is correct.

There are the info pages for the torrents in question. I've confirmed that the person who was having the problem is using the offical client version 4.0.4, I'm assuming under windows.
