files not showing in torrent client

[jlxf]

hello all,

I'm trying to start the seeding of my own torrent. I've uploaded my torrent file to TPB, then clicked the magnetic link and directed Deluge to the folder where the 35 files from my torrent are.

The announce says OK in Deluge, and I can see other peers' IPs who are trying to download from me, but none do.

The problem seems to be this: in the Progress bar it just says "Downloading 0.00%"
If I remember correctly how seeding works the torrent client should check the files on my computer, verify that I have 100% of the files, and then say "Seeding" in the Progress bar.

I've tried another torrent client, and played around with the "Move Storage" in Deluge in case I had selected the wrong target folder for the files.
But the same thing happens every time, as described above.

I think based on what you are describing is that you don't have the metadata of the torrent file yet, without this the torrent will not start and will stay stuck as you have described.

I've uploaded my torrent file to TPB

Use the torrent file in this statement.
Magnet links are good for the leechers.
Uploader must use the torrent file that was submitted to TPB.

That sorted it out, thanks! Had to make another torrent file with Deluge.
