Hello everyone!

I upgraded to kde 4.5 and ktorrent 4.0.1 and since then, everything from the tracker "myanonamouse" stopped working. It's working for everyone else, so I think it's on my end that something's wrong. I get the message "Error: Invalid data from tracker" and this is the log I get:

Code: Select all

Sat Aug 21 10:08:35 2010: Doing tracker request to url (via QHttp):
Sat Aug 21 10:08:35 2010: Request sent
Sat Aug 21 10:08:36 2010: Error thrown: Cannot convert ng="iso-8859-1"?>
Sat Aug 21 10:08:36 2010: Selected tracker http://www.myanonamouse.net/tracker.php/**********************/announce (tier = 1)

(I replaced some string of numbers by asterisks).

What does Error thrown: Cannot convert ng="iso-8859-1"?> mean?

Thanks!

Edit: I should mention, other torrents work fine.

Send me one of those torrents, so I can see what is going wrong

Unfortunately, it's a private tracker, so it would be useless for me to send you a torrent. But I can send you an invite to the site, if you want (just tell me your email address)

Wait, I solved it. Hmm, I just made it use uTP as the primary instead of TCP and it solved it.

Thanks!

That can't solve a problem with the tracker. Maybe the tracker was down temporarely.

Well, that's strange indeed.

The tracker wasn't down. I asked and everyone else was able to connect. And this lasted for a couple of days. As soon as I changed that, I was able to connect. Hmm. Maybe a coincidence.

And here I was thinking I was immune to correlation implies causality
