sirio81 Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 I installed 1.4.91 x86_64 on a debian wheezy.It lost all my old settings, but that's not so problematic for me. I need to set a precise listening port because of firewall reasons.I do it but once I close the settings windows and enter again, it shows a new random port.I also noticed that if I uncheck "Listening port", it checks it againg. I've been double checking file ownsership and permission. I also enabled debug but I see nothing in the log. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatMarko Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 Yes - this is a known issue (in fact it's been a known issue for the last couple of builds!) The devs are aware of this, and I'm sure it will be fixed at some point. In the meantime, the workaround is to set the listening port via the config file instead.

Scuttle Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 Could you please explain how I create this file and what it should contain? I'm running 1.4 latest version under Windows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirio81 Posted October 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 Here's an example{ "device_name": "myPC", "listening_port" : 50263, // 0 - randomize port "use_upnp" : flase, "download_limit" : 0, "upload_limit" : 2048, "webui" : { "listen" : "0.0.0.0:8888" // remove field to disable WebUI }}Save this to a file, e.g. sync.confStart btsync using this file ./btsync --config sync.conf Check./btsync --help To generate an example file with comments./btsync --dump-sample-config > sync.confthen edit sync.conf Every line that starts with // is a comment.Every line between /* and */ is a comment.

Scuttle Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 Yeah, nothing of this worked. No matter which of these I try the application just starts. The port is still random Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirio81 Posted October 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 Don't enter the setting from the web ui or the port will change.You can check if it's listening on the right port bynetstat -l --udp --numeric | grep <your port number> Ayway, today has been released the new version and it seems to fix this problem.
