HI,

i have a problem with uplaoding files.
I created a torrent, and uploaded it + files on my webserver.
Now i wanted to seed it with my server, cause its faster done. But if i want start seeding the torrent with "./btdownloadcurses.py XXX.torrent" , the files dont get hashed, it only comes in a new command line a ">"

[root@*** BitTornado-CVS]# ./btdownloadheadless.py ***.torrent
>


Even if i want to enter in the container witch cd XXX it only commes a ">"

[root@*** BitTornado-CVS]# cd ***
>

What does this ">" mean? and how can i start seeding the torrent?

PLZ HELP ME

It'sME
PS: Sorry for my really bad english.
PPS: I work only with console on the server, OS is Linux Red Hat Enterpr.

This means that you are runinng something, like you entered ` in the command or some character. only use alphanumeric characters and _ .

And what do i have to enter after > to get the torrent start?

You enter python code OR shell commands there. Show me the command that you are using. You might have spelt something wrong or you are actually running the python script iteself. Try writing "ls / ;" If it shows file list, you are running shell

i want to start the torrent with: ./btdownloadcurses.py ***.torrent
normally now the torrents start, but in this case a ">" comes in a new command line

Has the directory or torrentname hase single or double quotes in it ?
Like ' or " ?
If so try putting a \ before the quote(s).

THX a lot!!!!!

A >'< was the problem!
