You can find this in the settings of Deluge (you can use the web interface as well for that).

You cannot ‘open files on your phone’ with Transdroid. That setting is only used to determine the path to the downloads folder on your torrent server; but Deluge can provide it so no need to enter this yourself. You can download files to your phone using an FTP server on your torrent server and the aFTP client on your phone.

How do you set the default torrent location in deluge? Or, what is the default torrent storage location? What permission settings are needed for that directory?

I know of at least one issue regarding the adding of torrent by URL, but it should connect fine, yes.

Deluge does not have suficient rights to save the .torrent file (that it is trying to download from isoHunt as requested) to your local machine. Please try to manually stop and start the Deluge daemon and retry. Often when Deluge is started on your machine startup (via an init script or something), the user that starts Deluge cannot write to the (default) torrent firectory.

Hope this helps.

Hi there. Love the app. But can’t seem to add torrents. This is what the deluge logs are showing:
Thanks.

Turyn appears to be correct. If “classic mode” is enabled, this causes problems with the web-ui.

I believe this may be the root of MH’s issues as well. His problem is identical to the issue I was having. Once I disabled “classic mode”, everything worked great.

Most likely the Linux user under which the deluge-web is running does not have sufficient rights to write files whereever you told Deluge to put them. So when Transdroid sends the file URL to Deluge, Deluge is trying to download the .torrent to your machine but fails to save it at the file system location you chosen.

Please take a look at the Deluge logs what is going on. I am confident it’s something simple like this and not a error. Alternativerly, you may send me your Transdroid error log (using the menu option).
