Torrent has seeds and peers but stuck downloading metadata

I did not have to adjust my rate limits; they are still set to 0. This isn't Docker-specific anyway. The client or the underlying lib is pretty pathetic. I'm sticking with 4. Sometimes I'll restart it after a download completes if the remaining ones are still "downloading metadata. No torrents download, hence not really usable. I am also on windows 10, not docker. Going to lock this issue for now as it's obvious that the problem is upstream.

If this does ever get fixed upstream and needs repairing in our container, please open a new issue. Skip to content. Star New issue. Jump to bottom. Copy link. Hey, When adding new magnet torrents via webui they get stuck in "downloading metadata".. Before port modification Right after port change not even 10s So port change needs to be done every time new torrent is added to trigger the download..

I am also having this issue. This comment has been minimized. Sign in to view. Stop adding unhelpful comments of Same Issue Here. I just had this issue. Force Restarting worked for me. Same problem but not in a docker, and restarting does not fix the problem. Having this issue on Windows 10 v4. Restarting Qbit doesn't solve the problem. Just updating people that this is still a thing in 4. I am using this in conjunction with Sonarr.

Quick update Hi guys. Exact same issue. Client is bricked as far as I'm concerned, completely unusable. Mine is stable for about a week at a time.. Its annoying but not bricked or unusable by any means. Sign up for free to subscribe to this conversation on GitHub.

Tried building this image from your git repo and added 3 new torrents: got stuck at stalled started downloading immediately got stuck at "downloading metadata" aaaand this is right after port change - one stuck in downloading metadata recovered immediately. They all have the same problem as long as the proxy is turned on.

Start new topic. Recommended Posts. RandmTask Posted December 4, Posted December 4, Hi Quite frequently I get stuck on 'Downloading Metadata' for certain torrents, whilst at the same time others download just fine.

I do not know what "queue limit" is. I have not enabled any such settings. Is that on by default? Other torrents download just fine. Try pausing everything except the magnet. Does it download? Have you set an ipfilter? If yes, it probably blocks those ips. Doesn't work. Updated and tested.

Still the same behavior. The ips are getting blocked several times in a row. I am directly connected to internet using ethernet. No, sorry, I am not allowed to share those magnet links. I might be able to provide you a build with libtorrent 1. However only v3. Are you using a private proxy?

Are you allowed to use v3. Why do you ask? Do not the alpha support it? Can you try my latest alpha build? Only one version is possible. It shouldn't corrupt anything. You can backup the 2 qBittorrent folders found in Windows XP :. I have installed the alpha version but it do not work.
