Yesterday, I successfully installed TorrentFlux on my server,
but I have a small problem.. :|
I can download torrent with it without a problem,
however, when I try to seed with it, it won't seed,
it will type that is seeding on 0.0 kbps, and on the torrent
tracker, I am listed as not connectable.. :|
Anyone knows what might be the problem? :|
By the way, in the settings winows of the program,
all the options have a green light, which means
that they are OK, but there 2 with a note:
In the line "Python Path", it is written:

"Warning: is_file() [function.is-file]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/usr/local/bin/python) is not within the allowed path(s): ('.:/proc/uptime:/tmp:/home:/usr/local/lib/php:/nfs/home:/usr/home:/usr/local/bin/') in /home/****/public_html/****/Programs/TorrentFlux/html/settingsfunctions.php on line 188
[Valid] "

And on line "loadavg Path", it is written:
"Warning: is_file() [function.is-file]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/proc/loadavg) is not within the allowed path(s): ('.:/proc/uptime:/tmp:/home:/usr/local/lib/php:/nfs/home:/usr/home:/usr/local/bin/') in /home/***/public_html/****/Programs/TorrentFlux/html/settingsfunctions.php on line 188"

Maybe this is the problem..

So anyone can help? :D

is this when it changes from downloading to seeding or when u start a finished torrent and tell it too seed? and how many trackers have you tried, cause a few trackers wont let me seed stuff ive downloaded( a small few)

Hmm... actually I tried only 1 tracker,
but if the client is banned, I don't think I would
receive on the tracker "not connectable"..
I'll try another tracker.. :-)
Tnx..

Tried on TL,
same thing.. downloaded something
without a problem, but not uploading anything.. XD

You need to fix those errors in order for TorrentFlux to work, python is definately needed to run torrents. The reason you are receiving these errors is because open_basedir is in effect, which means torrentflux cant execute python etc. To fix this (I assume you have full root access to the server), you will need to find the "php.ini" configuration file and find this:
php_admin_value open_basedir "/"

and change that to:
php_admin_value open_basedir none

After the change is made, restart Apache. This will fix the problem, and your errors will disappear. If not, its probably because you have an control panel installed which overrides configuration settings in php.ini. If this is the case, look for some help on Google or send me a message.

Anyway once this is done, torrentflux should work fine. If not, make sure there is no firewall blocking connections to the tracker (such as APF) - you need to allow a specific port range such as 45000-50000.

Hope that helps!
