qBittorrent official forums

I am mounting a NAS at boot in fstab. When the download path is set to a folder on that NAS qBittorrent will connect to peers/seeds but will then stall. It works fine if  the download path is set to local storage.

Looking at the logs I get this error I'm not sure why this error is occurring as there is more than sufficient space on the NAS.

EDIT: I tried unchecking pre-allocate disk space and it now works fine. Now the question is why can I not pre-allocate disk space, which I can do with deluge.

What size is the ISO and what is the NAS file system formatted to?

The ISO was 1GB and the file system I'm using is NFS.

NFS is a protocol not a disc storage format. However, 1 GB isn't too large for any file system format in use currently.


So the likelihood is that the underlying file system on the discs  does not support sparse files, which is why full allocation avoids the problem.

I got a little confused and wrote NFS instead of NTFS. Deluge never had a problem with this particular file which is why I found it odd.
