The qbittorent included in the readynas distribution is quite old (2.9.8-1) and buggy. It appears there are newer compatible ubuntu built distributions available. For example, see here: http://www.tecmint.com/install-qbittorr ... -in-linux/.I installed add-apt-repository and of course it doesn't work on os6 because of the netgear damaged ca-certificates package. Has anyone gotten a newer version of qbittorrent running on OS6 and could you share instructions?steve

I finally got it working again. qBittorrent 1.0.3. Through ssh i ran apt-get purge qbittorrent-nox. Then re-installed from Admin-GUI :neener: :neener: :neener:I CAN'T UNDERSTAND HOW I COULD MISS SUCH A BASIC THINGanyway.....I'm back and satisfied running qBittorrent insted of transmission on my RN104 unit

Here is how I did it:Upload qbittorrentr6_3.3.0_amd64.deb to a directory on the NAS of your choosing (I used /root)(Credit to h3nk3t for this idea from and earlier post) apt-get purge qbittorrent-nox (removes remnants of version 1.03)apt-get install qbittorrent-nox (updates qbittorrent-nox to version 2.9.x)dpkg -i qbittorrentr6_3.3.0_amd64.deb apt-get install -f <--- I'm not a Linux Guru, so I'm not sure that last part was required Profit !!!

This is the last available version for headless Linux machinehttps://packages.debian.org/wheezy/qbittorrent-nox

Do you mean for wheezy or ever? I see other builds of qbitorrent-nox on newer distributions. That link in my first message seems to indicate that there are new PPA builds that will work on Debian 7 available. but maybe they don't have qbittorrent-nox?thankssteve

I got off my butt and set up a build environment in a virtualbox and was able to build v3.1.12 fine. I installed super's addon and then dropped libtorrent-rasterbar.so.7 into /usr/lib and updated qbittorrent-nox. Those two files were all that was needed and it runs fine.steve

Hi there everyone

I tried to install latest qbittorrent from super-poussins dropbox. It's version 3.1.12. I can't toogle the app on from web-gui. I also tried to start it up from SSH without success. I've googled my problem for many hours and according to almost every user they can manage to start qbittorrent.
The old version 1.0.3 worked flawlessy and problems started when I installed the latest version. I can't go back to 1.0.3 either. It won't start anymore

Do I need to wipe any config/cache somwhere?

I prefer to use qBittorrent before Transmission mainly because when I'm downloading many torrents at the same time qBittorrent handles the situation much better.

Please someone help me out here

Many thanks

Do you have ssh access? If so, post the output of:

ldd /usr/bin/qbittorrent-nox

This will show if there are any missing library dependencies. Maybe there is a library I already had on my system that I needed to tell super about. Just guessing.
