Errored status is always zero
Hi,
I had one torrent file, which is reporting it couldn't register to torrent tracker, because it was removed from the torrent tracker. And this torrent file wasn't in Errored state. I mean in the left column I see Errored (0).
Does it show with error status in official transmission-qt client or transmission-remote-gtk?
Yes, transmission gui client shows it with error status. That's how I know I need to re-download this torrent.
@dsh2dsh I did some research and apparently Transmission does not report an error for torrent in that case if torrent has multiple trackers: https://github.com/transmission/transmission/blob/1e16912ae4a20ca338cfe89c72418cd37eac0102/libtransmission/announcer.cc#L1031
I don't really want to mess with this logic on client side since this is a deliberate behaviour on Transmission's part.
@equeim oh sorry, I mean https://github.com/transmission-remote-gui/transgui It reports an error for torrents not registered on it's tracker.
if torrent has multiple trackers
I didn't tell anything about multiple trackers. My torrents has one tracker.
The goal is to know a torrent was replaced on a tracker. Without it how could I know I must re-download it.
I just checked and for me Tremotesf shows an error for unregistered torrent with one tracker, with Transmission 4.0.6
Is it possible that's because every torrent has a LAN local tracker? Like this:
http://bt3.t-ru.org/ann
http://retracker.local/announce
From this example retracker.local doesn't exists, because I don't have any retracker in my LAN. An the GUI reports "Could not connect".

Yes, there must only one tracker in the list.

I tried it and unfortunately it doesn't work. I removed retracker.local from all of my torrents and today one of torrents was re-uploaded on the tracker. transgui reports Error (1), but tremotesf reports Errored (0). See attached screenshots:
Could be that Transmission doesn't update the status flag of the torrent correctly. I have seen this when removing retracker.local tracker, Transmission would not report error status for torrent until the daemon is restarted. Does it fix itself for you after restarting Transmission?
Yes, after restarting transmission daemon tremotesf reports Errored (1) as expected.
I'd like to note, transgui reports not registered torrents even without transmission daemon restart.
