The good grammar and lack of crap in your other posts vouches for you. :)

That was very helpful..Thanks!

I get this error when I try to make the libtorrent package:

any idea where i'm going wrong? all of the previous steps worked correctly.

Follow the section about the libtool errors. For your convenience I'll repaste it here:

cd ../libtorrent-0.12.6
rm -f scripts/{libtool,lt*}.m4
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
make install

cd ../rtorrent-0.8.6
rm -f scripts/{libtool,lt*}.m4
./autogen.sh
./configure --with-xmlrpc-c
make
make install

ldconfig

Plan to buy a dedi server. Many thanks for your post. Studying...

so how did it go.

I have rtorrent 7.9 installed on my server running CentOS and would like to update to the newer rtorrent (8.9). As it stands right now, I did not compile it with xmlrpc so I cannot run rutorrent. Can someone please guide me on how to update the rtorrent and get rutorrent running on it as well?

I followed this guide to the T, so rtorrent is working just great but I would really like to have rutorrent running on it as well.

Hi,
I'm new at this things but a bit know concole.
I'm fail at here:

Now do the following:
apache2ctl configtest
/etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart

I get:

failed!

Can U please tell what I miss or do wrong? :unsure:
My rtorrent say: Bad link to rTorrent. Check if it is really running. Check $scgi_port and $scgi_host settings in config.php and scgi_port in rTorrent configuration file.

Sincerely: WUKONS

You didn't do the SSL certificate creation step, or at least you didn't follow all of the steps of that part. It's not finding the /etc/apache2/apache.pem file, which is necessary for SSL.

OK, I did the step 3 and 4 again, but same. Then restart server and it's Down lmao.
So, I started all from step 1, but Fail at:

root@theftl:~# a2enmod scgi
ERROR: Module scgi does not exist!

:pinch:

Thanks in any advice.

Do this as root:

apt-get install libapache2-mod-scgi

And try again. I can't really help you if you decided to skip steps arbitrarily.

You must be missing a standard repository for whatever version of Debian you're running, I just double checked the apt-cache list and that package is still alive and well.

Can you post the contents of the file /etc/apt/sources.list ?

Runnin this crappy thing at Debian 5.0.

Content of sources.list:

OK, I added these lines and reboot server, but still it's messing with me:

:huh:

You still need to add that package. In fact, you should probably add the entire list again since you may be missing other packages from the first list.

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

apt-get install build-essential autoconf apache2 automake libtool libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev screen ntp ntpdate openssl php5 php5-cli php5-geoip php5-cgi gawk libapache2-mod-php5 libapache2-mod-scgi curl libcppunit-dev libsigc++-2.0-dev subversion nano unrar-free unzip

a2enmod ssl
a2enmod auth_digest
a2enmod scgi

reboot

Ohhhhh, I'm rly now thinking to blow that box up.
At get update i got:

Just add this line again to your sources.list file, somewhere at the bottom.

deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.0 _Squeeze_ - Official amd64 DVD Binary-1 20110205-18:15]/ squeeze contrib main

Then repeat the process in my last post.

Your box is terribly set up if it's relying on a DVD physically in the drive :lol:

OMG!
Mother Of God! You did it! :) :) :)

Thanks alot alot man, I'm not gay but I love U!
Totally will add this Topic to favorites at all social accounts.
Thumbs up!

btw. Box at dotblock[dot]com

Edit: I can't find Rep button.

I don't want or need rep.

You've got a really odd box setup there :P

Yea, I said them, they close my support ticket and no answer. :lol:
Now just need to install Memcached, Sphinx, Ocelot and all for me should work.
One thing: This features always pissing me off and alot other users, not only me. :D
Sorry for offtopic. :whistling

thanks for the well writen guide.
but I have a problem:
when I'm execute ./configure --with-xmlrpc-c, I get this error:

checking for libtorrent... no
configure: error: Package requirements (libtorrent >= 0.12.6) were not met:

No package 'libtorrent' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables libtorrent_CFLAGS
and libtorrent_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.

I was looking for a guide to install rutorrent. Thank you very much ca_aok because you have kidnapped of your time to create this!
