Ktorrent is working great for me, I am running the latest beta (2.1beta1) on kubuntu dapper.

My issue is this:

Every time I start the program I get five or six dialogs saying:

An error occurred while loading the torrent. The torrent is probably corrupt or is not a torrent file.

I don't see any errors, I have only one download going on, and not any uploads. How can I clear whatever it is that it is checking so that these warnings do not come up all the time?


Another issue, which may or may not be related, ktorrent gets upset when I move files that have been completed to another directory. It need to get over that, and quit throwing dialogs about how it can find such-and-such file, and would you like to start downloading it again.

Anyway, thanks for some great software, and hope you can keep improving it.

By default under ~/.kde/share/apps/ktorrent, there are a bunch of directories named torX, where X is a number. You need to figure which one of those is your only download and get rid of the rest.

You can do this by looking at torX/cache, this will contain symlinks to the files you are downloading.

That feature is planned, but it will not be in 2.1.

Thanks, that worked.

Happy downloading
