[Bug 1130442] Re: Starting a new torrent saves files in folder of previous torrent.
I cannot remember since when, but at least in 14.04 and 13.10 i've been having a similar problem. In my case, the steps are: * Click on a magnet link * Choose in the dialog a directory d1 * The directory of the file is Downloads = change it to d1 * Click on another magnet link * Choose in the dialog another directory d2 * The directory of the file is d1 = change it to d2 * Click on another magnet link * Choose in the dialog another directory d3 * The directory of the file is d2 = don't change it * Click on another magnet link * Choose in the dialog another directory d4 * The directory of the file is d2 !! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1130442 Title: Starting a new torrent saves files in folder of previous torrent.

[Bug 1130442] Re: Starting a new torrent saves files in folder of previous torrent.
Im also using ecryptfs. I tried to reproduce it in the same way like you did it now, but it works fine for me. The default directory remains ~/torrents/ . I am also on Ubuntu 12.04 using transmission version 2.51. What is the output of your transmission-gtk --version ? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1130442 Title: Starting a new torrent saves files in folder of previous torrent.

[Bug 1130442] Re: Starting a new torrent saves files in folder of previous torrent.
hello. I cannot confirm this bug in 2.51 i have tried: http://ca.isohunt.com/download/441429029/gentoo.torrent http://releases.ubuntu.com/12.10/ubuntu-12.10-desktop-amd64.iso.torrent The first one is a minimal Gentoo withsome files in a folder. The second one is an Ubuntu single file image torrent. The destination folder was unchanged to Downloads and the second torrent was not inserted into the folder of the first torrent. Should the first download be completed before I start the second one? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1130442 Title: Starting a new torrent saves files in folder of previous torrent.

[Bug 1130442] Re: Starting a new torrent saves files in folder of previous torrent.
Perhaps I should add that I'm using ecryptfs. I have found a way to reproduce this problem without actually downloading anything. 1. I create an empty directory with nautilus. Eg: ~/torrents/ 2. Start transmission and set default download location to: ~/torrents/ 3. Create another empty folder inside the first: eg: ~/torrents/dontdownloadhere/ 4. Start any torrent file. Eg: http://ca.isohunt.com/download/441429029/gentoo.torrent 5. 'Torrent Options' dialog appears with the 'Destination folder' set as 'dontdownloadhere'. From there on it is very difficult to select the folder above 'dontdownloadhere'. It _wants_ to select the deepest folder. I get the feeling this is a filesystem issue, but transmission is the only application that I'm effected by. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1130442 Title: Starting a new torrent saves files in folder of previous torrent.

Andrew, thanks for reporting this problem. This sounds a little like https://trac.transmissionbt.com/ticket/5246#comment:9, which was fixed in 2.77. Could you try upgrading from https://launchpad.net/~transmissionbt/+archive/ppa/ and see if this resolves the problem? ** Bug watch added: Transmission Trac #5246 https://trac.transmissionbt.com/ticket/5246 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1130442 Title: Starting a new torrent saves files in folder of previous torrent.

[Bug 1130442] Re: Starting a new torrent saves files in folder of previous torrent.
Thank you Charles. I've tried 2.77 very quickly. Of the 7 torrents I started 6 were nested correctly. However 1 of them (its contents were a single file) was saved in the directory of another torrent. ... I've now realised that the problem appears to be with the 'Torrent Options' dialog that opens when I click on a torrent file. The 'destination folder' defaults to the folder of a previous torrent. It seems to be schizophrenic because I cannot get it to select the correct folder without first selecting 'Other' and then wrestling with it a bit. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1130442 Title: Starting a new torrent saves files in folder of previous torrent.
