HOWTO: Installing Azureus on Breezy

[arnieboy]

UPDATED! NO MORE RESIZING PROBLEMS
Part 1: Installing Azureus
Before anything make sure u uncomment the universe and multiverse repositories and add the following in in /etc/apt/sources.list:
sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
add at the end:
deb http://packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/plf breezy free non-free
deb-src http://packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/plf breezy free non-free
followed by a
sudo apt-get update
Do the following to install azureus:
sudo apt-get install sun-j2re1.5 libcommons-cli-java liblog4j1.2-java libseda-java libswt-gtk-3.1-java
wget http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/contrib/a/azureus/azureus_2.3.0.6-3_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i azureus_2.3.0.6-3_all.deb

Now set the correct java version by:
sudo update-alternatives --set java /usr/lib/j2re1.5-sun/bin/java

Part 2: Running Azureus

To make Azureus run smoothly on Breezy u need to make sure that the ports which are used by the torrents are open for file sharing. There are several ways to do this but the easiest way is the following:
first install firestarter (a GUI frontend to iptables firewall)
sudo apt-get install firestarter
now start firestarter from applications--> system tools
Remember that firestarter runs with sudo. To make firestarter run everytime when u log into GNOME, just add gksudo firestarter to System --> Preferences --> Sessions ---> Startup Programs.

alright now that firestarter is up, make sure its configured (first run) and go to edit -->preferences on the firestarter main window and in the Interfaces section check "Minimize to tray on window close".
now save and close the preferences window and look for the three tabs on the firestarter window, namely:Status , Events , Policy
Click on the Policy tab.
Click on the white space just below Allow Service | Port | For. This will activate ADD Rule at the top with a big blue PLUS sign. Click on that and choose the name of the service as bittorrent and the port for that service as 6881.
when u are done, click on Add and u are all set!!!
now start azureus and enjoy!!
U might want to remove this rule once u are done seeding or downloading.

Thanks for this post. It helped me a lot.

[stoffepojken]

Thank you very much! Worked like a charm :)

Isn't JRE 1.5 or JDK 1.5 avaiable for breezy? I know it's avaiable for hoary, i have 1.5 installed right now...

[arnieboy]

Isn't JRE 1.5 or JDK 1.5 avaiable for breezy? I know it's avaiable for hoary, i have 1.5 installed right now...
breezy uses blackdown's version of jdk which hasnt released its 1.5 version yet.

[manicka]

Thanks for this one arnieboy, works without a hitch as usual :)

[thnogueira]

Maybe the hoary's version works on breezy? I've upgraded from hoary and sun-j2re1.5
Java(TM) 2 RE, Standard Edition, Sun Microsystems(TM) still working here.

[davebgimp]

Before anything make sure u uncomment the universe and multiverse repositories in /etc/apt/sources.list
Do the following to install azureus:
sudo apt-get install j2re1.4 libcommons-cli-java liblog4j1.2-java libseda-java libswt-gtk-3.1-java
wget -c http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/contrib/a/azureus/azureus_2.3.0.4-3_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i azureus_2.3.0.4-3_all.deb
That should install azureus and get u all set.

I'm running Breezy and uncommenting the universe and multiverse sources only results in errors "Couldn't stat source package list", so I'm unable to get java as well as many other programs. I'm using the source list that came with the breezy CD, are they incorrect? This is what I've got:

Is there something wrong?

[manicka]

You need to refresh the repos

sudo apt-get update

[manicka]

I'd also comment out the backports repos for a while. They're not working yet.

[davebgimp]

Actually I looked again and noticed that the souces list you get from the CD install doesn't list the multiverse I added that, updated and so far everything is good. Thanks!

[Syphin]

Thanks, works great with my self-compiled jre1.5 :)

[freakzilla]

No problem with install but when i try to run azureus I get a segmentation fault. Is this a problem related to my amd64 cpu?

[Dillius]

Follow that howto and it should work. just make sure ya have the multiverse repo added to the sources.list

After its installed, type in "sudo update-alternatives --config java" and have it point to the new one. Works perfectly for me. :)

also, worked great thanks

[Nomearod]

Thanks for the Howto. It really helped!

[Samuel]

thankyou, been messing with this for a while, added the

deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy multiverse
deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy multiverse

and it worked fine, for some reason it wouldnt work with the gb (great britain?) links that was in my sources.list by default

[dolny]

Thank you for the short howto. 2.3.0.4 on board.

[Syphin]

anyone else having a problem, when you resize the window, all of the UI inside the window doesnt resize with it? the windows smaller, but everything else stays in the position it was when the app was launched first. ><

[pelago]

Yes, I'm seeing the same resize problem. I didn't have this problem in hoary, but I think I was using Sun's 1.5, so maybe that will fix it. For the moment I'm using the 1.4 as described at the top of this thread.

[Syphin]

Well i am using 1.5, and did in hoary also and didnt have this prob. :(

[xalphas]

Older way

http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=414757&postcount=16

[Syphin]

Thanks xalphas, that fixed the UI problem i was having. But with that you need to chmod the directorys right to be able to update and what-not.

I think the orig problem with the GUI and the method the poster used, is a problem with gtk not working right in it, cause i tried it with both java versions just incase, but no go.. :(

I installed Azureus as outlined and the program starts with the following error.

The program then starts normally, but when I attempt to downlad a torrent nothing seems to happen. I have seeds and peers showing, but I get a red status saying not connected to any peer to download.

I am behind a smoothwall box, but I forwared port 6881 and pass the nat test.

Gnome Torrent works fine as an alternative, but I'd really like to use Azureus. If anyone has some suggestions I'd be thankful.

[chajuram]

Wonderful,

Thanks.

[RezDawg]

Thanks this worked perfect.

[Pumpino]

If I search for Azureus in Synaptic, it's not listed. I have all the mirrors enabled, as well as the backports mirrors. Do I need to download the deb from somewhere else? I had no trouble getting it when I used Hoary. Thanks.

[matthias_k]

Hmmm, okay, I just removed Eclipse for now (for whatever reason apt decided to do so) and followed your instructions.

After Azureus throwing errors at me because I'm not using Java5 (and crashing), I just restarted it and updated the Updater, and then it seemed to work.

However, I can't resize the window lol! Whenever I issue a resize, only the window itself will resize, but not the canvas (which is effectively pretty useless). Did you also notice that? Maybe it's because this strange non-Sun Java implementation coming with Breezy is not so good afterall for running Azureus? ^^

Are there any Ubuntu repos for installing Sun's Java 5 RE? I actually don't give a sh** if it's under their non-free license or not, I just want a working Java5 platform on my system. I need Java5 for university work anyway.

[ming0]

same problem here--the windows aren't being redrawn properly :(

[Roybotnik]

I have the same problem with the window not resizing =c.

[matthias_k]

I guess it's a bug in the SWT library coming with the Blackdown Java implementation. It's the only library I could track down which does not come from Sun's Java5 implementation which I managed to install yesterday evening (I found a very good tutorial on the German Ubuntu forums how to install Java5, maybe it's around here somewhere, too).

The window fails to redraw an invalidated area, this means it's almost certainly a problem with the underlying windowing toolkit (in this case, Java Swing).
Does anyone know whether libswt-3.1-java is a Blackdown library, and how the equivalent official library from Sun is called? I noticed that the script loading Azureus includes the location to this library.

[bete]

When installing i get this error message :

[matthias_k]

That doesn't look as if it has anything to do with Azureus or the libraries you installed to run it. The errors are related o the emacs text editor; maybe you still had an emacs installation scheduled or so, try asking in another thread because this seems to be off-topic here.

Followed the HOWTO to the letter. Now if I try:

/usr/bin/azureus: line 5: exec: java: not found
user@ubuntu:~/downloads/debs$ java
bash: /usr/bin/java: No such file or directory

Everything's installed, as per recommendations, but it's still not working. What does this mean?

[arnieboy]

[QUOTE='[censored]']Followed the HOWTO to the letter. Now if I try:


EDIT:

arnieboy,

did that.

removed jre1.4 as you suggested. Downloaded and installed automatix, and got it to re install jre1.4 as (I presume) you were intimating, along with the version of azureus that was in the package.

now this what happens when I launch azureus:

Obviously, I need to set up the path and environment variables for java. Does anybody know of a decent ubuntu-compatible howto on this?

It worked after I manually added the multiverse repositories, but I get this error when starting Azureus:

alright herez the solution guys:
do a
sudo apt-get remove j2re1.4
now do
sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
and add the following lines at the end:
deb http://antesis.freecontrib.org/mirrors/ubuntu/plf/ breezy free non-free
deb-src http://antesis.freecontrib.org/mirrors/ubuntu/plf/ breezy free non-free
now do the following:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install sun-j2re1.5
and then run azureus

libdvdcss2 is provided by plf. then this is marillat wich is for debian and is dangerous to use on ubuntu. Then you use qarg sid and etch at the same time .. none sense.
However it's all commented so not activated I suppose you activate it only when needded then. Well be carefull on giveing this to people who don't know what this is .. they can break their stuff thanks to this :-(


deb http://antesis.freecontrib.org/mirrors/ubuntu/devnotpublic/ breezy free non-free

devnotpublic stands for in DEVELOPPEMENT NOT FOR PUBLIC
This rep contains package that can break your distro, it's for plf project testers and devs only.



Please don't advice anybody one useing this list it's dangerous for them.
(You should remove devnotpublic too unless you're plf tester)


Thank you

[keyes]

I agree !!!

Please don't use devnotpublic if you are not a PLF tester. You must read the PLF mailing list to use this repository.
Stuffs are not tested in this repository and anybody can publish a package who make "rm -Rf /"!!!
This can break your system, destroy your data, ...
We remove packages from devnotpublic and publish it to the main repositories when tested!

However we need testers! You are welcomed to join the PLF, see http://wiki.ubuntu-fr.org/doc/plf (yes this is the Ubuntu-fr Wiki but this page is in English) and join our mailing list.

Thanks.

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
sun-j2re1.5: Depends: libasound2 (> 1.0.9) but 1.0.8-1 is to be installed
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.3.4-1) but 2.3.2.ds1-20ubuntu14 is to be installed
E: Broken packages


wtf? i have both of them....

[dolny]

Edited.

Azureus works now (I downloaded it from official site) - but is veryyyyyyyy slowwww :( (and it doesn't download anything :/ ehhh)

[iluminate]

Had the same problems that everything went really slow, and Azureus behaved VERY buggy.
So I:
1.Uninstalled Azureus.
2.Uninstalled SunJava
And then started all over again. Like magic it works just fine now.
Still having problems with the resize of the window, but hey at least things do work now.
Also don't forgett to "sudo update-alternatives --config java" and then chose the Sun Version.
Then start Azureus.
Before the uninstallation I got an error message from Azureus saying somthing about "azupdater package not found". Now everything works great...

Cheers

[dronug]

when i enter the command

sudo apt-get install sun-j2re1.5 libcommons-cli-java liblog4j1.2-java libseda-java libswt-gtk-3.1-java

i get libcommons-cli-java is already the newest version.
liblog4j1.2-java is already the newest version.
Package libseda-java is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package libseda-java has no installation candidate

[XDevHald]

This application works really well in Dapper Drake, but others might experience it differently in Breezy. Solution to that issue is beyond me, I'll check as to why and post a reply back later.

[The Warlock]

May I ask why, exactly, libswt-gtk-3.1-jni conflicts with the Eclipse suite?

[arnieboy]

I have completely rewritten the first post! check it out and make azureus rock! make sure u have all the universe and multiverse repos enabled though. if u dont know what am saying, do the following:
sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
and make sure there is no # symbol before the universe and multiverse repos

[matthias_k]

Thanks, one thing though:

I think you really should remove the part about firestarter, it's misleading and doesn't belong there (EDIT: It's also wrong, see post below). First, it sounds as if one would need firestarter (read: iptables) for Azureus to work (which is of course not true) and second it might even be a bad idea to install it when you're behind a router which already does NAT and IP filtering.

It just hasn't anything to do with Azureus unless you already have iptables installed and set up, in which case one can assume that he/she is already familiar with package filtering and doesn't need this information.

[matthias_k]

On top of that, Azureus (unlike most other BT clients) only binds to TCP port 6881, so opening 6882 to 6889 is useless and an unnecessary security risk (unless you're using another BT client additionally to Azureus which binds to these ports).

iptables is installed by default on ubuntu breezy and most other distros and having firestarter to actually see whats happening is actually a very good idea. u cud also selectively open the ports which are required for sharing torrent files and do it in a manner less complicated than editing iptables. I dont think addition of the firestarter part is irrelevant.

great! then select which port u want to open and keep the others closed!

Installed, yes, but no chains or filters are set up. If that part is to stay, you should at least say that it's:
a) Not necessary to run Azureus (though may be helpful)
b) Definitely unnecessary (or even bad) when behind a router

great! then select which port u want to open and keep the others closed!
Yes, that was my point. Your post doesn't mention that though.

[sevenrechlin]

Ok I tried to do this, and it was downloading fine, but after downloading the terminal spat out a ton of parse errors and then turned into some sort of code. Now it's just waiting for input in it's weird code.

NM Got it, was a problem with not doing Java correctly :)

anything weird cannot be magically deciphered at this end unless its reported as is. depends of course on whether u want the problem solved or not in the first place.

[bejinxed]

Thank you. Got Azureus working except for the window draw resize bug other people have listed above, so Im happy.

[skatedawe]

Thx for the guide! :))

Firestart did it, i couldnt get up the ports even with manually upset the settings in the hardware router.

I am not involved with the plf project, hence I cant give u a heads up on that. we will have to wait and watch. in the meanwhile u can try and mail keyes (the maker of easy ubuntu) to ask him if he knows anything.

[bored2k]

I tend to forget, why the extra
libcommons-cli-java liblog4j1.2-java libseda-java libswt-gtk-3.1-java
packages? I know libswt supposedly gives you a speed boost, but I never felt it.

cuz the debian version of 2.3 depends on them and thats what gets installed here. thats not the case with version 2.2 however.

open /etc/apt/sources.list
and delete the antesis.freecontrib.org lines and replace them with the following:
deb ftp://ftp.free.fr/pub/Distributions_Linux/plf/ubuntu/plf/ breezy free non-free
deb-src ftp://ftp.free.fr/pub/Distributions_Linux/plf/ubuntu/plf/ breezy free non-free

Ahh, thank you.

Edit: I installed all the packages, but when I put in the command to update java, I don't get a choice on which one to choose. The output is just Using `/usr/lib/j2re1.5-sun/bin/java' to provide `java'. Is this right? When I run Azureus, the window still doesn't resize when I change the geometry...

[thermopyl]

DOH!

Followed the instructions...how do i run azureus as it is not in my menus???:???:

sorry those lines abt choosing remained even after I edited this howto some time back. when u use "set" with update-alternatives it doesnt ask u to choose your java version but just sets your java path to the one in the argument. that was the intention of the edit: to make this howto one step shorter.. but i forgot to delete the older lines. anyway now its been edited again. thanks.

should be in Applications -->Internet
if its not, then try running azureus from terminal by typing:

[arnieboy]

the plf mirrors also host a debian package of azureus (not native ubuntu version). I havent checked in a while though whether the plf guys have updated this package to the latest..

[Technoviking]

I have built a new Azureus package under Ubuntu, will try to upload it to my web site later.

[skeezer65134]

Thank you SO much for this. The directions for adding backport and extras repositories for Ubuntu is outdated and I can never get the repositories to work right (they are always Ign instead of Get).

Got Azereus running now and it's all good. Now to figure out this Kaffine player and the w32codecs.....

Thanks again!

Thanks again!
since u have the plf repos added just do:
sudo apt-get install w32codecs
and it will get installed.

. Click on that and choose the name of the service as bitorrent and the ports for that service (6881-6889) will get automatically selected.

you spelt Bittorrent incorrectly - the ports won't be automatically selected if you are lazy like me a copied and pasted it into firestarer from your guide.

thanks for the help O:)

azureus_2.3.0.6-1_all.deb is available. This deb should be used instead of the older one.


$wget http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/contrib/a/azureus/azureus_2.3.0.6-1_all.deb


PS :
using the -c option of wget makes no sense since this resumes prior downloads. From the man page :


.......... -c only affects resumption of downloads started prior to this
invocation of Wget, and whose local files are still sitting around.

[Danielle]

hey, where did it go :confused: i installed azureus_2.3.0.6-1 over the top of 2.3.0.6 but when i open it it's still 2.3.0.6. do i have to reboot for it to take effect?

[Danielle]

i fixed it :)

[skeezer65134]

since u have the plf repos added just do:
sudo apt-get install w32codecs
and it will get installed.
Already took care of this. I need to install the xine engine too, but it worked out well. Actually, I did it only a few minutes after posting. That repo is quite useful, thanks again!

Sorry to bother you Arnieboy, but I noticed an inconsitency in your first post. After you wget the 2.3.0.6 version of Azureus, the following dpkg line still reffers to the 2.3.0.4 version.

hi, i was able to install azureus and firestarter just fine -- but azureus won't connect to a single peer or seed. my router is set up properly for port forwarding and i'm sure i followed these directions to a tee...any ideas why this is happening?

[thecrust]

This is an informative thread so I thought you guys might have some idea of what is going on, here's my problem.

Azureus opens extremely slowly it takes a few minutes to open. After the splash screen and drawing the display window the processor usage jumps to the maximum. (~80% user, ~20% system stuff)

I have installed the Sun's newest java.
java -version gives me:

java version "1.5.0_05"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_05-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_05-b05, mixed mode, sharing)

I installed azureus 2.3.0.6 using the instructions given on the first post of this thread. This '100%' cpu hog problem happens with no torrents running and with one torrent running.

Any ideas?

azureus is a confirmed resource hog. if u want somethign lighter try the gnome bittorrent client.. but its severely lacking in options.

[thecrust]

Just an update to my issue, when I run azureus with: gksudo azureus

The debug output streams this NULL Pointer exception over and over.
DEBUG::Fri Dec 09 20:25:25 CST 2005

I realize that azureus is hard on the RAM and CPU, but I had a copy running earilier on this hardware with Ubuntu as well as Windows XP and both did not hog the CPU constantly. Currently azureus is hogging the processor even when it is not dealing with any torrents.

Thanks for your time.
Cheers

[Aeon17x]

It works, even if you don't include the additional repos. Just make sure you already have Sun Java and the universe/multiverse repositories so that when you install Azureus, Synaptic will just fill in the missing dependencies. :)

[kurokikaze]

Does anyone know if this how-to works for AMD64 ubuntu too?

[Mosey]

No matter what ports I try and test...i've tried twenty-six already...I always get a NAT ERROR...

What do I need to do? I'm testing ports i've enabled in firestarter!

*Hmmph*

[Rory]

Arnieboy,

Thanks for the Azureus install instructions. Question:

I installed sun-j2re1.5 from plf and then installed the same azureus package you note from the debian repos. Everything works fine. I didn't have to do anything else.

I never installed, as installing sun-j2re1.5 seemed to install them:
sudo apt-get install libcommons-cli-java liblog4j1.2-java libseda-java libswt-gtk-3.1-java

And I never did:
sudo update-alternatives --set java /usr/lib/j2re1.5-sun/bin/java

And I never installed firestarter.

Are these things really necessary?

Could the instructions instead say:
sudo apt-get install sun-j2re1.5

wget http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/contrib/a/azureus/azureus_2.3.0.6-1_all.deb

sudo dpkg -i azureus_2.3.0.6-1_all.deb

This method works great! Thanks!

are there any other bitorrent programs besides azureus and bt4.0 i was hoping on using utorrent but thats windows only :(

Eclipse and Azureus still don't play nice together. If I install Azureus it wants to remove Eclipse and it's related packages. If I install eclipse:

My 2 cents : install all java related stuff (eclipse, ant, tomcat...) manually.
Linux purists will say that's dumb, and that doing this you'll miss the power of packages.
I experienced so much problems with java apps packages : tomcat messing with struts apps, impossibility to correctly set local javadoc for the JDK in eclipse... that i took this resolution, and now everything is running fine :-)

[ububaba]

UPDATED! NO MORE RESIZING PROBLEMS
Part 1: Installing Azureus
Before anything make sure u uncomment the universe and multiverse repositories .....

At a far simpler level. How does one comment or uncomment?

[Rory]

This is a fair question. We just assume that these basic things are self-explanatory, when, of course, they're not.

## comment
uncomment (remove the '#') from the front of the line.

## at the beginning of the line means that that line won't be included in your repository (or other script, for that matter). But, it's still there, in case you want to use it down the line, when all you have to do is remove the #.

## Sometimes you'll see a file and it will have instructions. In order for ## the instructions to be there but not seen as code, comments are put ## in from of the lines. This allows you to write anything you want to users, explainining the contents of the script. Then you'll see code.

Here's an example: http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu#How_to_add_extra_repositories

Simple enough?

Rory

[ububaba]

Thanks a bunch. It was really helpful.

[Pettman]

Will there be an update for the new version of Azureus (2.4.0.0, came out the 10 of february)?

[newuser111]

azureus can auto update itself

[Pettman]

azureus can auto update itself
Not this version. Or you'd need to run it as root or something.

[jamesford]

i downloaded the tarball and extracted over the old version and it works just great. there were some problems with some paths but it ws easy to fix with the azureus options thingy

[Monoman]

new path for wget

wget http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/contrib/a/azureus/azureus_2.3.0.6-3_all.deb

[arnieboy]

First post updated.

[daredevil]

arnieboy i did not require firewall to open up port for azureus. dunno y!!

[Jawbreaker4Fs]

Ok... so I've been screwing around with attempting to install Azureus for several hours, and I seem to be at a completed dead end. Following the guide here, I managed to get Azureus to load, got NAT configured correctly, and downloaded the update. Without thinking, I allowed Azureus to install some sort of SWT update... and when it tried to reload the program I got the following error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no swt-pi-gtk-3139 in java.library.path

I've tried uninstalling Azureus and everything Java... then doing a reinstall of both (several times), as well as ensuring that java is set to the sun version in
update-alternatives --config java
but none of this has worked! Any help would be greatly appreciated...

I have the same problem. I configured firestater already, my router has the rules set (and NAT is ok, even according to Azureus). The strangest thing is that, sometimes DHT starts to work out of the blue. :-k

Is the first post outdated, I get some error messages like (translated from dutch):
Couldn't check status sourcepakketlist at http://packages.freecontrib.org etc..
and:
A failure to get some indexfiles or the're used some old packages
and:
Couldn't find sun-j2re1.5
I want to install Azereus, maybe someone has a working tutorial.
Thanks

replace all occurances of "azureus_2.3.0.6-3_all.deb" with "azureus_2.4.0.2-1_all.deb" and it worked great for me.
