qBittorent keeps crashing after a few minutes

Hi,
That's the message I get:
qBittorrent version: v3.0.11
stack trace:
[0x6cf400]
/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1.0.0 : RC4()+0x9c [0x3359dc]
Segmentation fault
Same with 3.0.9...
Do you where qbittorent log is located? Maybe I'll find some there...
OS: Linux Mint 13 (LTS) x32
Thanks

This isn't a qbittorrent bug. See this bug report for an explanation and possible workarounds:

I don't see any workarounds on that thread...

I have been having the same problem, I changed my settings to NOT minimize to the task tray and so far I have had 12 hours crash free. Don't know if this will continue to work, but kind of nice to have it run for more than 5-10 minutes.
I also switched to no upnp and implemented a port forward from my router.
Finally, I removed some torrents that had not seemed to make progress in days in case they were causing some sort of corruption.
I know it makes better trouble shooting to only implement one at a time, but I was getting very frustrated.

You are correct. The workarounds are probably in one of the sub-linked bugs.
This happens when you choose to encrypt the connections. Somehow, libtorrent passes wrong parameters to openssl which make it crash. So you can do one of the following:
1. Update to libtorrent 0.16.x(probably via a 3rd party ppa), you'll most probably need to used a qbittorrent package built against 0.16.x
2. Update to a newer distro/ubuntu
3. Go to qbt settings and disable the encryption for the connections.

I got libtorrent 0.16.11 from here:
https://launchpad.net/~surfernsk/+archi ... t-software
Where do I get a qBittorrent for that version?
Thanks

The same PPA seems to package qbittorrent too. Try it and tell me, so I can suggest it to other users too.

Seem stable right now (~1 hour). Let see what happens in the next ~12 hours (Although I think it already safe to assume that it has worked)...
What I did:
1) Removed libttorrent version 6 (0.14.x). With it qBittorent was removed too (App settings wasn't deleted).
2) Installed libttorrent v7 (0.16.11).
3) Installed qBittorrent 3.0.11.
My OS is Linux Mint 13 that is based on Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise).

Still stable!
Thanks for the help sledgehammer_999.
