  • Not sure to understand your question. Do you want to display from your RPi a web UI provided by a deluge server? Or you want a BT server on your RPi that provides a web UI, and then display the web UI from another computer? – Morgan Courbet Jan 04 '13 at 20:07
  • somewhat of the latter question – psyko666 Jan 06 '13 at 10:27
  • It seems like what psyko really needs is a file server, so he can retrieve his downloaded files. I use samba for this as it allows me to connect from Windows 7 via the Windows file manager. The pie makes a great low power seedbox and file server in this manner. –  May 10 '13 at 02:43

You can simply install deluge from the terminal using the package manager;

sudo apt-get install deluge

You then need to start the daemon;

sudo service deluged start

Then to interact with the daemon using the web ui you must start that;

sudo service deluge-web start

Then browse to https://localhost:8112. The password should be deluge.

  • im sorry for the question being not understandable anyways u may have answered my question, another question though, how do i transfer the settings and torrents to my local deluge(my pc), for short id like to see my torrents in my pc while my RPi downloads – psyko666 Jan 06 '13 at 10:26
  • by the way excellent answer very simple and understandable – psyko666 Jan 06 '13 at 11:04
  • You can use any client to view that deluge daemon. Browse to the https://address:8112 where address is the IP address of the Pi on the network. – Jivings Jan 06 '13 at 16:30
  • what i mean is not from the browser but the local application form of Deluge. i.e. "C:/Apps/Deluge/Deluge.exe" – psyko666 Jan 07 '13 at 09:15
  • Not as far as I know. You can do that with Transmission though (a different torrent client). What's wrong with using the browser? – Jivings Jan 07 '13 at 18:18
  • i'd prefer the local one, it's much more responsive than the browser client. – psyko666 Jan 08 '13 at 07:41
  • This solution does not seem to be working as of today. See here. – Frantisek Mar 05 '15 at 11:29

@psyko666 if you are still looking for an answer, the following guide shows how to connect to a deluge-daemon running on your RPI from a Deluge client on another machine.

short answer: if you have deluge client runiing on your pc .. turn off classic mode , if deluge is running properly on your pi , you will see it as an option , u=you can then conect it up that way .. you might have to turn on the option for allow remote conetion for the deaom though the web up first
