Hey guys,

I found a bug, when i have uploaded an "External" torrent.
It has no Seeds either leechers.
BUT when I download it It has MANY seeds(as it should be!)also leechers! Shocked

Its really stupid because No one will download a Dead torrent!
Crying or Very Sad

so what to do with this bug! It's a kind of a problem for a public site so... any ideas? Confused

Kind regards,

***Doppie***

Most torrents use a extra list of trackers which is termed backup trackers. So a torrent contains a main tracker, which PMBT only uses in scrapes, and maybe contain a list of others which are used in torrent clients to get extra peer sources. Maybe a future addition of PMBT will use these backups.

What could be happening is your main tracker is dead, but the backups are possible peer producers.

You could manually edit the SQL records for that torrent at put a working tracker in the field 'tracker'. Make sure there is also an entry in the tracker database so the tracker can be included in cleanup.php based scrapes.

You can somewhat control which is the main tracker when you create torrents.

ThePirateBay is closed to scrapes at the moment. Openbittorrent can be scraped though, but it's another matter if PMBT or your torrent, is working to do this. PMBT coding is mainly geared to local based torrents running on a PHP4 server. If you want more then you will have to start editing code.

The graphical front end may run ok, but PMBT is not totally compatible with all general internet hosts and php versions. I've already done the research after experiencing these problems. The Bencoder/Bdecoder included in PMBT uses commands that have unstable handling/results when used under php5. Some torrent will give nightmares like replies being badly read in a scrape or breaking the info_hash sha1 checksum because of a failed rebuild of the torrent when uploading or changing the other internal base10 parts after upload. The internal meta data changes using these unstable commands, casing the torrent t be faulty. Noting this wont happen to all due to the server layout they use.

I've point this problem out to you in another post.

I've rewritten most of the code to get around this problem on my own website, but I'm yet to finished of the error handling for timeouts to make it fulling operational. Otherwise I have externals running and tracking fine. It didn't before I forked.
