Have just recently got a new seedbox supplier,and have been trying to seed a couple of non metallica shows here but it doesn't seem to work.I have followed the presentation on seeding,but when i upload the torrent to my seedbox,it just tries to download it,not seed it.
I have just tried a test with the same show over at Metfuk,and it worked first time.Anyone got any ideas??

Re: Seeding problem
Have you tried to seed a torrent using your own computer/connection? If not, please try and report wether it works or not

Re: Seeding problem
I know with some seedboxs it puts completed shows in one directory and shows that are downloading in another directory. So when you add your torrent file make sure you specify the correct directory where you show is actually uploaded to.J0nn0666 wrote: Have just recently got a new seedbox supplier,and have been trying to seed a couple of non metallica shows here but it doesn't seem to work.I have followed the presentation on seeding,but when i upload the torrent to my seedbox,it just tries to download it,not seed it.

Re: Seeding problem
Seems to be the problem is when i finished downloading the show,i deleted the torrent.Although the show is still on the server,it doesn't show up when i open the RuTorrent gui,although it shows up when i access the server by FTP.
As Mike said it is in the "completed" folder,but it seems not to seed if it isn't showing in the gui.....Weird.

Re: Seeding problem
Why remove the torrent file? The tracker needs the torrent file to know where the data is located on the local machine. It makes sense that the tracker front end isn't seeing anything.
