Torrent Swapper Install how-to.

[turbojugend_gr]

Oh m8, I can't be sure for that, but I got a few hints. Torrent Swapper uses bittornado's core for sharing and ABC's code parts too, so try Tornado1 and whatever is for ABC client and see if either can do the trick.

Don't forget to post back here your solution, so others in your position can benefit from it.

I hope I was helpful, TJ.

Using Tornado1 as the application name and forwarding 6881-6889 seems to be fine.

Nice, I am glad I helped. Thank you for posting back too, others will find that handy.

Cheers, TJ

I can't get torrent swapper to run ever since my edgy reinstall. I keep getting this following output, I do have all the needed programs installed...atleast im sure I do.

Rule, it seems you don't... plz revisit the first post and install ALL dependancies there, and make sure you install the m2crypto library, as in dapper I think it was under a slightly different name. Also the libsxbase library was somehow tricky in dapper too, so make sure about that alos. Note I just pointed two tricky ones, you need to make sure you install ALL deps.

Cheers, TJ.

If you happen to have Wine installed, Torrent Swapper will run quite fine with it.

I had it working for a while and now it stopped working. I get a fatal error message.

Here's what pops up:

An error occured during Swapper startup:

<class 'bsddb.db.DBPageNotFoundError'>-30987, 'DB_PAGE_NOTFOUND: Requested page not found')

Here's what the terminal puts out:

Anyone have any ideas on why it suddenly stopped working? By the way, I'm using Fiesty.

About tray icon: to fix this issue, you'll need to resize 'swapper.ico'. It has resolution 48x48, just resize it down to 16x16 (you may use GIMP) or download attachment and unpack it to swapper directory!
