Rutorrent/rtorrent seems to be working fine but torrent transfer does not start

[hectoroki]

Hello everyone,
I'm pretty much a newbie learning hot to use dockers and this module.

I am having a problem. Have my docker installed as an extension on my Plesk server, and after installing, and configuring.. seems everything is fine, but the torrent itself does not start.

I added a torrent file and a magnet link, and cant make it to work.

Files at the mapped volume seems to be ok. dont think its a permissions problem?.

any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Disclaimer: I'm a noob myself, so take this advice with a grain of salt.

If the downloads are queued it does sound like a permissions problem.

Try
$ sudo chown -R USER:GROUP /path/to/folder/

If you ran the container like suggested in README.md it may look like this:
$ sudo chown -R hectoroki:hectoroki /home/hectoroki/test/

Thanks a lot.. I was just looking at the permissions, changed them to

chown -R rtorrent:psaadm /path/to/files

and then started working..

NICEEE.. thanks a lot
