Having now looked CLOSELY at the screen shots, you are loading two different types of payload.

One is a single file which does NOT show a file list on the "Add new dialogue"  the second is a multiple file which does show a file list.

Try this from a Terminal:
$ sudo service apparmor stop

Then try restarting qBittorrent, and loading your torrent.[/quote]

I do that but nothing happen. I mean I stopped this service, then I tried add torrent in qbit.

Yes, now I know that.

Now I check exactly and even this "multiple files" torrent doesn't work.

I upload short video-demonstration so check the attachments.

OMG I don't know. I totally remove qBit + config and install again from software center but still dosen't work. Even when I add *.torrent which qBit downloaded in the past (because on the previous installation I had qBit setting to save every *.torrent) nothing happen.

It looks like qBit dosen't have permission to work.

So I opened qBit from termianl and there was:

Code: Select all

bartosz@bartosz-Lenovo-IdeaPad-Z510:~$ qbittorrent 
Could not parse Nova search engine capabilities, msg:   
Error:  /usr/bin/python: can't open file '/home/bartosz/.local/share/data/qBittorrent/nova/nova2.py': [Errno 13] Permission denied
 


When I go there by nautilus I can't find directory "qBittorrent" because in the "data" is no such directory. The "data" is empty. So I check permission for this directory and I had weird permissions. I check other directories in "share" and for each I had permission to "edit and save files" so I thinked for the "data" I should also had permission to "edit and save". I changed this permission. Then runed qBitTorrent and then I saw that qBit created directory in the "data" with files. So I thinked "This is it!" and tryied add some *.torrent and... It is works!

I should from beginning run qBit from terminal and check what errors they are.

So... If in the future somebody will be have similar problem... Maybe let check the permissions for directories.

Anyway, thank you tried to help me.

Oooooooh.
Yes, your home permissions are messed up.

That's easy to fix, and you should always remember this command:

$ sudo chown -R bartosz:bartosz /home/bartosz

Close qB, and issue the command above, it recursively makes you "own" those files.
In terminal, "ls -la" can show you a permissions/owners for a folder.
Or "mc" is also helpful if you set a PANEL to show details.

No, I had permissions to my home directory. I just don't had permission to "data" (I said that in directory "share" I checked permissions to other directories and I had permissions so I just copy these permissions to directory "data"). I don't know why. Now qBit works so problem solved.

-R means recursive.
And you should be the owner of _all_ your files in your /home/$username folder. Period.

In fact, you could run this command from cron or whatever, and it should cause no issues.
(I run chown www-data on www related folders all the time.)
