Errored the paging file is too small
Re: Errored the paging file is too small
Which version of qBittorrent are you using?
Re: Errored the paging file is too small
I am also having this problem. Downloading very large file.
Initial problem showed when I updated to qbittorrent_4.4.1 Gave me a "disk not ready error" and scared the bejeezuz out of me. Went back to qbittorrent_4.4.0 and continued the download.
Tried to update to qbittorrent_4.4.2 and got a similar (but different) error but when you look at the status it says "paging file is too small"
I'm going back to qbittorrent_4.4.0 to hopefully continue download. (I am over 50% through of 14TB) ....victor

Re: Errored the paging file is too small
Bummer. Now I'm getting the "paging file is too small" error on qbittorrent_4.4.0.......
Re: Errored the paging file is too small
Went back to 4.3.9. Now I'm back. continued download and no errors. 3 mos. in....hope to be done by june
Re: Errored the paging file is too small
So... qbittorrent_4.3.9 appears to be working.
Windows 10
computer is an Intel NUC with 8GB memory
Each time I have tried to update (so far) I get the error and download stops. Tried qbittorrent_4.4.0, 4.4.1 and 4.4.2. I seem to only be able to use qbittorrent_4.3.9.
Of course I woun't know for sure till I open the download.....some time in June.....

Re: Errored the paging file is too small
I mean Paging File is a Windows thing. It's how your OS can use more RAM than what is installed in your system.
You yourself can increase this by hand quite easily.

Only downside? This takes up disk space.
Just simply set a manual, bigger file size and it should work fine.

Re: Errored the paging file is too small
Yeah...... Don't mean to be obtuse but i realized that and did change the paging file size ...to no avail. My bigger concern was the change in behavior from qbittorrent_4.3.9 to 4.4.0, 4.4.1 and 4.4.2.
......Looking back, I see I changed the size on my largest disk, not the C-drive. That may have been wrong, I'll try again.

Re: Errored the paging file is too small
OK. Tried to increase the paging file size for my Windows C-Drive. Still errored out. But with new message. "Insufficient system resources".
I know I am probably way out on the edge downloading such a large file and my system only has 8GB of memory. So that may be my fault.
But every thing seems to work OK with qbittorrent_3.4.9. It would be nice to know why. Will you continue to support vers. 3.4.9?
I am 56% thru. should be done in June.

Re: Errored the paging file is too small
What size did you put? I'm interested in like, how much its (mis)using, etc.
Honestly, with today's absolutely horrible programs, 8gb ram is like peanuts.
This is why virtual memory is used so extensively. Or should be.. without errors.
