Tracker problems

[A-l-l-a-n-o-n]

At the moment, it really seems to be working with no probs.
Stiill use u-torrent 2.2.0.0. , and I'm seeding a new torrent at the moment
Thanks to the guys who'd fixed the problems

It's all working perfectly for me, on an old μTorrent. The site seems in good running order, no errors in my client, lots of seeders and leechers. Happy days! And yet it looks like TTD is gonna go to website heaven

"That was only yesterday" - everything was working fine, but as of today, I'm not able to run the downloaded torrents or to share the ones I've got. My uTorrent 1.8.2 says "Tracker sends invalid data - <NULL>" and my Vuze says "Error! Offline - invalid reply", and then some long technobabble. Could something be done about this?

I can only do something about it if we want the whole server to crash.

Looks like the tracker issue has returned.

yeah....I am getting wack messages and seeing Firewalled when my client is not even open. The tracker is done.

I'm on qbittorrent 4.4.5 and my all my seeding and downloading torrents are stating in error 'expected digit in bencoded string'

[magpiepie]

But one of my torrents is seeding at present, but it appears because the private flags aren't set to it

[XAVeRY]

The tracker is returning invalid bencoded data (http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/...r/announce.php) :

d14:failure reason24:Invalid info_hash (0 - )(

The dictionary started by "d" should end with an "e" :

d14:failure reason24:Invalid info_hash (0 - )e

This also occurs while trying to connect to the tracker over HTTPS using HTTP/2.

This is just an example with an empty announce, but can also be seen in replies to actual announce messages which cause our clients to be unable to parse it and thus start connections. Sadly I don't think anything can be done at client side since blindly replacing all "(" with "e" changes absolutely nothing as "(" is a perfectly valid character in the stream and can appear in a peer ID, for example. In fact, it would even cause an error with the response to an empty announce.

The scrape numbers seem to indicate that some people can connect successfully, but this is not true : the tracker properly registers the connection as a seeder or leecher before sending the faulty reply back. This means that the torrents that you're trying to download/seed will show up in your profile and will be counted towards seed/leech numbers, but your client won't be able to actually connect to anybody else anyway.
