Seeded Torrent Visible, but won't start
I've uploaded a torrent that just doesn't want to get going. It shows as visible on the main page, but on utorrent it never starts/turns green. Other torrents (from here and another site) are running fine. I downloaded my upload to include pass key, but it still doesn't start.
I've spoken with a mod, and we could not determine any cause. I've not had any issues uploading previously. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Re: Seeded Torrent Visible, but won't start
Do you have any sort of rules set up in utorrent that says you can only be on x amount of torrents at a time? Maybe try stopping your other torrents, wait ten seconds, then start one of your 'trouble' torrents and see if it starts.

Re: Seeded Torrent Visible, but won't start
OK, try deleting the torrent file from uTorrent (red X). Then, go back to the thread and hit Force Refresh (shift + refresh). Now download the torrent from the thread. Drag/drop it into uTorrent. Does it then go and recheck the files? Or do you get an error immediately? What does it say in Tracker Status?

It does go & check files, and gets to 100%. Then, however, it stays red and doesn't show. Tracker status says offline (timed out).

Re: Seeded Torrent Visible, but won't start
Hmmm, according to this page in the FAQ, you should just let it be and it will eventually connect: http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/...aq_getaddrinco
You said this is happening also on an etree torrent? Have you ever had this happen before or is today the first time?

Re: Seeded Torrent Visible, but won't start
Yes it is also happening to another. It has not happened before. I have uploaded many torrents to various sites in the past, but never had this problem.

Re: Seeded Torrent Visible, but won't start
Is it only happening for torrents that you uploaded to a site? So both here and at etree you uploaded a show and now are getting a tracker error for both of them?

Re: Seeded Torrent Visible, but won't start
I never even got an error message. They just would never turn green...stayed red for hours.
They did, however, just start working!!!  Thanks for your continued efforts, Lynne!
