Azureus 2.5.0.2 / 3.0

Post by Shu »

I've compiled a list of known issues with 2.5.0.2 so far. It's at http://azureuswiki.com/index.php/AZ2502_Known_Issues

Let's hope there won't be very more added to it. We are scheduling another release in a couple weeks to clear up these issues. The version number on that release will be 3.x.x.x to avoid the misunderstanding that we have two branches of Azureus, when it's all the same code with multiple UIs.

* 1 Unix: Big icons in name column
* 2 Unix: Opening a .torrent file that's actually a html file
* 3 Continuous SWT upgrade message w/handing while closing
* 4 'Min simultaneous downloads' can't be set very high
* 5 New Azureus won't run on Ubuntu AMD64
* 6 Opening a torrent creates a "*-1" directory or "1-*" file instead of seeding

[edit]
Unix: Big icons in name column

Temporary workaround is to disable icons in name column via Tools->Options->Interface->Display->"Show program icon in name column". You will probably have to close My Torrents and re-open it.
[edit]
Unix: Opening a .torrent file that's actually a html file

This will probably crash Azureus. Don't do it ;)

Fixed in 3.0.0.5_B1
[edit]
Continuous SWT upgrade message w/handing while closing

Use the installer on sourceforge to clear up your azureus installation. For some reason, you have a really old SWT library, and together with Azureus, it does a stupid thing on closing.

2502 installs: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=d ... p_id=84122
[edit]
'Min simultaneous downloads' can't be set very high

This is intentional to prevent abuses. The highest you can set it to is 1/2 of "Max Simultaneous Downloads". The purpose of this option is to allow you to still have downloads running even when you have many "First Priority" torrents to seed. It is not meant to completely stop your completed torrents from seeding.
[edit]
New Azureus won't run on Ubuntu AMD64

You have to uninstall the one you got from your distro.

sudo apt-get autoremove azureus

Then, you should be able to install the sourceforge one. It was recommended to install to /usr/bin, but that's up to you. :)
[edit]
Opening a torrent creates a "*-1" directory or "1-*" file instead of seeding

When you have Automatically download to default directory option turned on, and you open a torrent with the intention of seeding, it will not seed, but rather, it start a new download, renaming the file or directory to avoid name conflicts.

There are two current workarounds:

* Turn off Automatic download to default directory (Options->Files)

or

* Click the 'Open Torrents' button on the toolbar and drag the file you want to seed to the window

The purpose of the feature is to prevent torrents with the same data file names from overwriting each other (imagine 2 torrent with a moo.avi in them, the 2nd one would overwrite the first). For the next release, we will be adding more logic to determine if the existing files are for the torrent you are opening.

carllfo edit: Racism, even as mild as your now edited statement, will not be tolerated. Ask a Chinese person how they feel about what you just wrote and you will understand (hopefully :roll:). If you are in fact Chinese then frankly you should know better.
Do not edit this, if you wish to discuss it then send me a PM
