When I upload a torrent to mininova I get this error.
"Error message was: This torrent has an invalid tracker. The tracker (http://cjr.freepgs.com/tracker/tracker.php) does not exist, is currently down or does not allow scraping.
Click here to go back and try again."
Is there a way I can enable scraping?
Thanks
Scraping is on by default, but it also depends on how the torrent is created (the announce URL.)
Some announce URL examples:
http://mysite.org/tracker.php <-- scrape is disabled in the torrent
http://mysite.org/announce.php <-- scrape is enabled in the torrent
I didn't look at your torrent metadata, but this is likely the cause.
I tried the announce.php announce url before, and it gives an error message. It says "connection error (filenotfoundexception:...)
Oh sorry, I didn't have announce.php uploaded. I feel stupid :). Thanks again for the help.
Yeah, it generally helps to make sure all of the required files are on the server. :)
Will http://www.mysite.com/tracker.php/announce work?
You may be able to use http://www.mysite.com/tracker.php/announce, it depends on how the webserver is configured. IIRC lighttpd didn't like that type of notation and wouldn't pass the '/announce' to the scripts. It's easier to upload the announce.php file, that should work in all cases.
