Title: Upload statistics stopped updating
Post by: Blizzie on April 18, 2013, 09:02:15 PM
I was seeding this torrent (http://bakabt.me/169119-chuunibyou-demo-koi-ga-shitai-love-chunibyo-other-delusions-720p-urw.html) and for some reason when it got to 42.59GB, the statistics stopped updating on my profile page even though it's been seeding more than 60GB now on the torrent itself. I've tried restarting the UI, re-adding the torrent, and verifying. The tracker status is reporting okay and I don't spot any obvious issues.

I also had this issue when seeding REDLINE before but couldn't figure it out. Now that it has happened twice I'm curious..

Are you sure that the statistics simply haven't updated yet? You've only been seeding for 5 hours according to the peerlist.

They normally update a few times an hour, as the rest of my torrents do. It's been a whole night and there's no change. It does say it's been seeding for only 5 hours but I have not stopped the torrent except to figure out the issue.

Did you close uTorrent properly? You have to close the program itself by going File->Exit. If you just close the uTorrent window, it will just minimize to the tray.

Also, uTorrent seems to have issues with gracefully exiting lately. When it closes, it doesn't seem to notify the tracker. Aside from being generally annoying behavior to trackers and the rest of the swarm, if this happening to you, one side effect will be you seeing your torrents still active. Make sure you have all settings related to graceful exit set to use graceful exit, and if it still doesn't work, one option would be to stop all your torrents before closing uTorrent and then start them all back up again when you start it, if it bothers you that much.

Naturally. It's the very reason your statistics is not updated properly.

If you kill the program forcefully, like with a big axe, you can't expect it to be able to report to the tracker before exiting, right?

"End process tree" is probably the most violent way to kill a program on Windows.

Exit your torrent client gracefully with the menu option.

Like I said, make sure your client's settings for graceful exit are all set to exit gracefully.

If you are certain that you are not seeding any of the torrents that are shown as seeding, write down all the statistics of the 35 torrents on the site and stop your client for a couple days, and then see if the numbers have changed (on the site, of course, not in your client).

If the numbers did change, there are two possibilities:
-you're actually still seeding those torrents, or
-your passkey got leaked and someone else is using it.

Note that the second possibility is not likely if you haven't seen any new torrents added and if the total downloaded amount on each torrent only shows the amount that you've downloaded (usually equal to the torrent size).

If it still really bugs you a lot, you can change your passkey. This will cause all torrents linked to your account to stop working, and you will have to either redownload all the torrent files (not the files in the torrent) and reseed, or change the tracker URL on each torrent to reflect your new passkey. Depending on how many torrents you want to have running, this process could take a very long time.

I only see two active torrents on your account now, so that seems to have gotten rid of the 35 mysterious torrents.

You also haven't mentioned anything about changing your client's settings to close gracefully... If it makes it more clear, uTorrent has a particular setting somewhere that disables graceful close, so that when it shuts down it just shuts down without sending tracker updates. Probably doesn't matter much anymore, unless the problem persists.

Check that the exit gracefully flag is set in the advanced settings:

Then just exit normally either by closing uTorrent or right clicking on the tray icon and exiting.
