Wrong Disk Status reported in Rutorrent and in Widget

QuickBox Support

What are the permissions on those transferred files? If they transfer into the directory as another user or as root, the data may not have the appropriate perms to read them as used space.

#22

I checked and the files transferred by btsync were all owned by btsync, so I used the command:
sudo chown -R username:group /home/username/torrents

Now both the widget and the rutorrent status bar are updated properly.

Awesome! So, are we good on this then?

#24

Yes, thank you very much for all your help. :smiley:

Hey,

I had a similar issue

I would like to add something, if you use the default configuration (no quota on your first user) with /home as directory, you will have a wrong disk space on the widget.

So to fix it :

  • on your quickbox dashboard, go in plugin => uninstall diskspace then install diskspaceh
  • Use the command setdisk
  • He will ask you your username, then the quota space (so give the total of your disk)

The proper command to fix this is already included in QuickBox.
