Need someone to test a torrent I created...

I'm using Deluge 1.3.15
I can see the list of files that would be downloaded, but when I click "add" to start the torrent, nothing happens. No error message.

Code:

[08/25/2022 15:10:02] The XP7 Productivity Pack v0.9.torrent is too large. Please upload files up to 2MiB

Yeah, doesn't look good. It's RuTorrent my seedbox service uses.

Could you give me a screenshot of the status of it?

Is that limitation on my end or yours? Or both?

It's definitely a limitation of my client/service. However, a 2mb torrent file is a bit absurd. Not sure how you made one that large

Worked on Tixati
Some trackers failed to announce
Seeders didn't have the files

Include the torrent hash next time

Here's the info hash. Not sure if that's the same thing.
v1: bcee3e1c7026adc9118629aef0cd028b1c2b699f
v2: 7724cef78bf4dc59ca8763f71863da14a32c6739ae9ba68c206ea4fad61200c0

There's over 55 GB worth of files in here. lol

I don't think the contents of the torrent itself matter. The largest one is for a TV series, and that's like 30GB

Perhaps you should zip the files included in your torrent. It's probably not the size of the content, but how many individual files there are, that contribute to the size of the torrent.

It would take forever to extract though. I am considering it, but I don't think that's the issue.

New file to test! This is just a singular image to make sure that it's not the content that's the issue here.
 

Attachments
(DO NOT TRUST ATTACHMENTS BY DEFAULT. Use VirusTotal at least to quickly scan the files.)

I had no problems adding either to my µTorrent (not the 77.9gb file or the 3.28mb one), getting the content listed, or displaying the 1 seed. It didn't want to start downloading though.

Now I can add the smaller file to my client, but it doesn't download anything, after letting it sit for five minutes.

No seeds or peers, but I was able to add it

Ok so I figured out what's going on here. My VPN uses a TAP adapter network connection, and I need to route all my traffic through that to make sure nothing leaks. Unfortunately, that adapter (or my VPN provider) doesn't support port-forwarding which is needed for seeding your own torrents. With that said though, I was recommended to use a seedbox as an alternative.

I pay $15 a month for mine, and I've never regretted it once. I don't pay for other services though. No Netflix or anything, so I put it into that budget expense

Yeah that's probably how we're going to go forward with our future hosting. Connecting the XF site to the seedbox URLs will be a breeze using the Resource Manager. Only problem is forum attachments will still have to go to the (60 GB only) server drive. For now anyway. I think there might be a way to configure it to use external storage for that.
