No Connections After Update 1.2.82 To 1.3.94 On Ubuntu Linux

Hi,

 

some time ago I’ve set up a dedicated ubuntu linux VM for btsync 1.2.82.

 

It’s running behind a firewall, I only opened outgoing port 3000 udp and from the beginning it worked like charm. It takes about 2 seconds to connect new peers and the sync starts.

 

Now I did an update to 1.3.94 by switching the btsync executable, I left everything else as it was but now the peers won’t connect anymore.

 

I already compared the sample config from 1.3.94 with my running config but it doesn’t seem as if there were many changes in the structure of the config file from 1.2x to 1.3x

 

I restored my VM from backup and everything is working again.

 

Somebody got an idea how to update without breaking everything?

 

Regards,

Michael

Step 1. Turn on Debug Logging. 
Windows and Mac: click on SyncApp icon and select "Enable Debug Logging". 
Linux: create file debug.txt with contents of FFFF in the .sync folder. You can find the .sync folder in the same directory where the btsync binary is located.

Step 2. Reproduce issue 
Please let Sync collect logs for at least 15 minutes to get enough information.

Step 3. Attach log file 
Linux: ./sync/sync.log

Hi Denis,

 

I opened all outgoing ports on my firewall and about 3 seconds after that the other peers connected again. There must be some changes from version 1.2.82 to 1.3.94 so that btsync now needs more ports opened than 3000 UDP I guess?

 

Funny thing: I activated the firewall again like it was before, rebooted the btsync VM and afterwards connections to peers are still working. So obviously the firewall doesn’t have to be open all the time? Did it download something that is only needed to be downloaded once? I don’t get it  ^^

 

Does it have something to do with this recurring log entry “Requesting folder config from config.usyncapp.com” ‘?

 

Could you tell me which ports should be opened besides 3000 UDP and what they are needed for?

 

Kind regards and thanks a lot,

Michael

Hi,

If you open in firewall only 3000/UDP than btsync will work only via relay server - is very slowly.

You can look at ports, which btsync use using command 

# netstat -lp | grep btsync

btsync use 80/TCP for getting information about tracker and relays. 

 

Also, you should open UDP/TCP that setup in your btsync settings for incoming peer connections.

OK, to sum it up:

 

- at least 3000/UDP outgoing -> if possible ANY/UDP outgoing for maximum performance

- 80/TCP outgoing

- incoming portforwarding for a UDP port that I define as incoming port in btsync

 

Am I correct? 

 

Wouldn't it be nice to have that in FAQ section? :-)

 

Thanks a lot for your help!

 

kind regards

michael
