Heya,
I've had the "connection limit exceeded" error on all my torrents for a few days now. I have tried rebooting and reloading the .torrent files, but the error isn't going anywhere.
I have tried both Transmission and rtorrent, both give the same error message. Also, all my seeds have stopped as well.
I have Ubuntu 10.04 as OS.
Any help?

Hey pakahani, Im sorry to hear that :(


About: connection limit exceeded

This happens because our script doesnt allow you to seed the same file from two IP's simultainisly.

Ill explain further...

If your torrents are in any way stopped in the middle of a seed without sending the "closing" message to the script, and then is started again from another IP, the script will still have an open connection from the old IP in the memory.

This can happen when you reboot or shutdown the computer abruptly or your torrentclient crash, or on similar actions.

The script sees a second connection trying to seed the same file but from another IP and thinks its another computer trying to seed same file.

Normally the solution is to wait and allow the seeds to stay active without closing the torrentclient until the script slowly but surely autoupdates and releases the old IP as its not active anymore and turns the new connections "green" again. Then make sure that you close the client correctly each time so it doesnt happen again.


I hope this will help you to get your seeds green :)
