qBt 4.6.2 crashes on Arch Linux (stops when changing to libtorrent v2) #20279
Comments
I don't see the cause here, like |
Its possible, not sure how to answer. The rig has 128GB of ram so its not going to run out of memory that way, but is the program only allocated so much by the OS and it could OOM by exceeding its allocation? I ask because I found something interesting; the connection had a misconfiguration. In the "Advanced" section the network interface was bound to a VPN while at the same time in the "Connection" section a proxy was also setup. I didn't realize both methods were active at the same time. Since I have removed the proxy and kept the VPN bound, I haven't experienced a crash. That might be luck or not enough testing time has past. Even if the crash is solved, it seems like there should be some logging added here in this situation to help debug. I intend to keep testing and I'll report back. |
I have Manjaro & qBittorrent from the official repos seems unstable as shit: random crashes, random freezes, zombie process, it even blocks system restart and corrupts my NTFS' disks. I guess the main problem is Libtorrent v2. That's why I've switched to AUR's versions, especially to Libtorrent v1. Currently I have this and this installed. |
I'm going to call this crashing issue "solved", but leave it to the maintainers to decide if this issue should be closed just yet. I think the solution raises a couple more issues. After many days of observing stable performance, I am certain that my previous answer definitely contains the source of the crashing. The only thing I have to add is that IPv6 was disabled on this box which seems to have created a circular situation where IPv6 access is continually being requested and denied. Before closing this issue, consider if the lessons learned here might impact logging or design, specifically:
It took a long time to diagnose this. Please consider making a couple changes. |
qBittorrent & operating system versions
qBittorrent v4.6.2 (64-bit) (but actually 4.6.2-2, see below)

NeoFetch
What is the problem?
qBittorrent randomly crashes about 3x per 24 hour period. After reading several other issue reports here, the following seems relevant to say:
Crash report from
journalctl
:Steps to reproduce
This issue is intermittent and seemingly random.
Additional context
Log(s) & preferences file(s)
BTW, the instructions on this page say to look for
qBittorrent.log
but on Arch Linux anyway its little "b" as inqbittorrent.log
. I don't use the "Watched Folders" feature. I have the other two requests however:qbittorrent.log
qBittorrent.conf
