RN104 recent Update to 6.5.0 Deluge Download Folder Permission Problems
Hi All, Sorry to trouble you. But I am having some real problems with an App downloaded and installed from ReadyNas Xtras. The App, Deluge 1.3.12 has been fine after installing on my Netgeat RN1...
There is small problem, with backing up 2TB of data...
Is your problem also related to the Deluge Download Folder? Or is it something else?

If the data is important to you, you should back it up. RAID is (in my experience) not enough to keep your data safe.
Though it is inconvenient/time consuming to restore all the data.
Sorry duplicate post, apologies there..... :smileyindifferent:

I was actually asking Shtoffen. It wasn't clear to me if his problem was the same as yours, or not.

No worries, but I thought (as I had a few minutes spare) I would post up on here about this as 'Deluge' was mentioned. Sorry for butting in, but (no pun intended there) it seems the new FW has stopped a lot of Apps, Services, etc. It certainly has for me anyway. I will look into it in more depth in the coming days......:smileywink:

jaybepr - I am sorry I had no answers for you, I am glad you have managed to sort out one of the devices. I had a lot of work to catch up with and also one of my Sons (youngest) Birthday was this weekend so I literally do not know where the last two days have gone!
But in conclusion to this whole debacle I am a little bemused, having paid money (albeit not a lot but still money nonetheless) to purchase 'Deluge' for my ReadyNas and yet I still have no answer from Netgear or the dev. who encoded the application, so not paticulary happy as you can imagine. Hopefully, as tomorrow is the start of another day (Monday) I may yet get an answer than, if not I am afraid I will have to take steps to request my money back, as having an app that literally does not work is just foolhardy and although I have a lot of apps (from Netgear and other devs.) that are reporting 'errors' and not working, I did not purchase them as they were free!
No problem, I am working overtime right now so I'm not going to be able to mess with it until Tuesday. That I find out yesterday is just like a workaround is not meant to be like that, I only did it on the small RN104 (4TB) to test it and it worked ( not like it is supposed to ) but I'm not doing it on the 314 (16TB) is too much data to mess around with. I have a case number since the first day of the fairmware came out and still no communication, they spend like four hours trying to find the problem but they were concentrating on my computer settings not understanding that it was a Firmware problem. But let them play to game, if this doesn't get fixed I am changing my business someplace else, I know it's only me saying this but I know there's a lot more people thinking it. I have been using Netgear NAS since they started with Infrant and never had a problem like this. But let's see what they do about it, if not I will be posting some things on Craigslist pretty soon :-)
I don't know if you already got everything working with deluge, but I might have something to help you out. I am using readynas 6.5 myself and got deluge up and running with no problems, but due to the lack of time at the moment I haven't really tested what steps are actually needed and do not know if a startup script is automatically created or that I have to download it. Anyway I will post about this when I have more time.
Since readynas is based on debian weezy, you can download deluge from the terminal. It is advised to delete your previous installed deluge first.
This is what I had installed before executing the commands:
the app python (don't know if its needed tough but it won't hurt installing it).
ssh enabled
Ubuntu Precise release repo (this will add the repository with deluge based on weezy, again not sure if needed)
first ssh into your nas and when logged in copy paste the following:
apt-get install python-software-properties
add the repo:
add-apt-repository 'deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/deluge-team/ppa/ubuntu precise main'
Refresh apt:
apt-get update
Install Deluge:
apt-get install -t precise deluge-common deluged deluge-web deluge-console
to let deluge create the config directory:
deluged killall deluged
create a username and password
echo "yourusername:mypassword:10" >> ~/.config/deluge/auth
start deluge again
deluged
use deluge-console to allow remote acces:
deluge-console "config -s allow_remote True" deluge-console "config allow_remote"
you can test if deluge us running by
deluge-console
you can now login with the thin client using your hostname, username and password from the previous step and the default port (58846)
to enable the webclient
deluge-web
you can acces it with
http://<server>:8112
the default password is deluge
It is possible that the client does not see the server immediately, if not just stop deluge and start it again.
As I said before I have not looked into a startup script yet, so when you restart your nas you might need to ssh into your nas again and run
deluged
deluge-web
