Red Seeding Bar
« on: April 03, 2013, 09:04:20 AM »
Under Tracker tab,
"No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it"


I'm using utorrent 3.2.3 build 28705 which is the one from the website whitelist unless I mistakenly downloaded the wrong one.

The torrents downloaded just fine. And if you check my page, they actually uploaded some as well, but now they're not. The target location is correct. I've had it check the files, it verifies they are there 100%, but then when I look it shows 0 peers, etc. Essentially it looks like no one is connected out there (clearly not the case).

It's been like this since... Well about 8pm today (I'm pacific standard, and it's about 3 am right now).

From looking at the WIKI and the FAQ I'm uncertain what to do from here. I have tried deleting my torrent files, redownloading them from my inactive list on my profile, and then pointing the download location of the torrent to where the files are on the computer. It then proceeds to check the files, etc.


Can someone please help me? My search-fu got me this far but I'm still no closer to solving the problem of the red seeding bar and not seeding anymore.

Tracker's down temporarily. Try again later.

I'm sorry, still relatively "new" here. Does this sort of thing happen very often and for long periods of time? I've been checking it for over 6 hours now. When did it go down if I might ask, and any idea when it will be back up?

So should I just wait till tomorrow night and try again? I really want to try to be a good community member and have a positive ratio of upload to download, not just the minimum 0.5 ratio.

Thanks for the speedy reply btw.

Tracker's working again.
There's no one in the world I'm interested in surpassing, excepted for myself.

The tracker goes down for maintenance for ~40 min every day. Prolonged downtime periods are rare (once or twice a year).

It probably went down for a while as a result of "unbanning" several thousand hentai titles at once. Pretty sure it was down for at least half a day.
