No connection to rTorrent issue

Hi Support team,
I’m having an error with rutorrent not connecting to rtorrent,

No connection to rTorrent. Check if it is really running. Check $scgi_port and $scgi_host settings in config.php and scgi_port in rTorrent configuration file.

Could i please get help on where to start with some feedback i can provide in regards to my system.
I’ve been searching around the forum and see similar problems but really don’t want to make changes without specific requests.

Hey @Trilton,

Check out this post and it’s solution. This may be the issue you are having as well. Additionally, you may need to reboot after you apply the solution.

Hi @JMSolo

I entered the command as instructed and it returned:

Acquire::ForceIPv4 “true”;
then
apt install rtorrent
I then rebooted, the change does not seem to have affected the error.
For reference, i have been following this guide since:
https://hoarding.me/

Regards

What are the results of

systemctl status rtorrent@trilton
