i followed all the instructions ...but after i created the launcher , whne i double click on the shortcut , it says-

There was an error launching the application.
Details: Failed to execute child process "/home/viswan/utorrent/utorrent-1.8-alpha-6838.upx.exe" (Permission denied)

So, any suggestions of what do do to proceed ?

Regards
Viswanth

the error message

"There was an error launching the application.
Details: Failed to execute child process "/home/viswan/utorrent/utorrent-1.8-alpha-6838.upx.exe" (Permission denied)"

This is received because when you go to create launcher (by right click on the desktop area and click "create launcher") you need to make sure that the command area says the following: wine "/home/viswan/utorrent/utorrent-1.8-alpha-6838.upx.exe" and not just "/home/viswan/utorrent/utorrent-1.8-alpha-6838.upx.exe"

The word wine with a space must come before "/home/viswan/utorrent/utorrent-1.8-alpha-6838.upx.exe"

that did the trick for me after i received the same error you did

im new to this linux system, but its easy lol..

1. download utorrent
2. go to the folder where your downloaded files are saved
3. right click on utorrent.exe then choose Properties
-- in here you will see where your file has been placed. mine is /home/usrname/Downloads/utorrent.exe and so i did

4. go to application>accessories>terminal
type the following: wine /filepath/utorrent.exe
-- filepath = the folders your file is located, if we base to mine it should be like this "wine /home/usrname/Downloads/utorrent.exe"

DONE!

on your desktop right click and create laucher. on command line type wine /filepath/ again. Goodluck!!

tnks newubunto user ;)

It worked the way newubuntu user mentioned... gr8 thanks....

thanks it works newubuntu user

I did that by this way

1. install wine
2. install utorrent with wine
2. click on link of needed torrent
4. open torrent file with -> chose application to open

is very easy, and its working very well !!!
enjoy

how do you install utorent with wine? if i did the first step does that mean my wines already installed? and step three is not working.it failed to save the user/bin/ stuff.

thanks for the help
i did all of the above but i cant get it to work.
i have the same problem as viswanath

Details: Failed to execute child process "/home/afrim/utorrent/utorrent.exe" (Permission denied

the problem is that utorrent-1.8-alpha-6838.upx.exe file is an installer not a standalone thats why it didnt work

if you download this (beacuse its a standalone), it will work fine

Hi there,

The utorrent starts I just cant make it to download the torrent files. How can I do that? Thank

Great post.

I was able to set this up and it was working fine until I removed the "system tray" icon from my top panel. I am using Ubuntu 7.10. Once I removed it from the panel, I tried to reinstall the program to get it back up there and was uable to do this.

Now, it have a "system tray" icon that shows up on my desktop instead. Also, it is not working as well.

How can I start over and get it working like it was before?

I guess you need to completely remove Wine from your system. Execute the following command in a terminal:

sudo dpkg -P wine

Then remove the hidden .wine folder from your home directory.

And after this, reinstall Wine!

#!/bin/sh
cd "/home/marque/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/uTorrent/"
if [ "$1" != "" ]; then
var="`echo $1`"
wine "/home/marque/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/uTorrent/uTorrent.exe" "$var"
else
wine "/home/marque/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/uTorrent/uTorrent.exe"
fi

I got this to work with the self installer version 1.7.7
sorry for messing with your script

Wow, that's ugly shellcode! It really hurts my eyes.

#!/bin/sh
wine "$HOME/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/uTorrent/uTorrent.exe $@"

Will do it as well.

This is a very complicated and complex way of doing it.....
Heres my suggestion:D
1. go to terminal type: sudo apt-get wine Accept any questions that come.
2. go to utorrent.com and download it to your desktop
3. Right click the icon and select open with wine.
4. By this time, its already installed:P

I AM UNABLE TO USE UTORRENT TO OPEN THROUGH WINE WHAT I DO

"The utorrent starts I just cant make it to download the torrent files. How can I do that? Thank"

Can anyone explain this, i am having the same problem. I chose the option to make uTorrent my default app to download torrents, however it still uses Transmission

me too!!!

mu torrent working better with win than linux. use deluge .

Hey this worked me too
But while saving/downloading file thru torrent, I cant select fat32 drive
as my linux partion is just 4gb I cant save torrents more than 500mb
:(
what shuld I do??

This is really nice. If you like me dual-boot with Vista or probebly any other MS can syncronise the download processes. The only thing necesseray is that the .torrent file and download location is in order. So if you dual boot you might want to download to a partion that can be accessed from both your linux and windows.

Guys, everithings works perfectly, the mistake is inside the Step3:
If you llok the screen dump, they instruct you to place the shortcut on the utorrent.exe file while you have to select instead the script /usr/bin/utorrent...

Enjoy.

Perhaps because of the website formatting capability, I think the script has some characters missing, I have a modified version that works as intended:

#!/bin/sh
EXEC_DIR=~/utorrent
EXEC_NAME=utorrent.exe
if [ ! -e $EXEC_DIR/$EXEC_NAME ]
then
echo "Error: Can't find $EXEC_NAME in $EXEC_DIR."
exit 1
fi

if [ $# != 0 ]
then
arg=`echo $1 | sed 's/\//\\/g'`
arg="Z:$arg"
echo $arg
wine $EXEC_DIR/$EXEC_NAME "$arg"
else
wine $EXEC_DIR/$EXEC_NAME
fi


Also, user scripts like this one should not be in /usr/bin/ but in /usr/local/bin/

And then, of course, the Laucher should point to the script, not to the exe, not even with wine. Otherwise whatś the point in creating a script?

GR8 !!! i was using jdownloader for multiosses and now i can continue my torrents just same as windows on Ubuntu, thank you very much!!!

This was really great thank you - it was my first ever app under wine (apart from things that used it anyway like picasa). It seems to do just about everything. I had a few hiccoughs all down to my brain not working - thinking the home directory was /myname rather than /home/myname for example. Very satisfying. Thanks

Thank you very much, it took a while but it finally works !

im lost at step one. you want me to install wine?? whats wiine? is it the utorrent? and how do i open a console? and is the executable script is in the same console? is all of thiis going to be iin notepad or something? please help.

okay step one and two went well but step three it says saving failed and to check type location correctly. whats wrong with it?

Hi toeun,

please wait a few days until we will recreate this tutorial. I will notify you here when it's done!

Best regards.

As promised, the guide was re-edited from the start... I hope you will all manage to install uTorrent under Ubuntu/Linux very easily now :)

Enjoy!

Hi Guys,

Great tutorial.

Just have one question: Where do the torrents save once completed?

Thanks

Neil

Hi... Thanks!

Where you put theme, in the uTorrent's settings :)

Why not just use Transmission which is very simple/basic or Deluge which has many features and i personally think i just as good if not better thatn Utorrent, Deluge also includes blocklist plugin?
Evan

BTW: I like that theme you've got, I hope that's available in the next release.

Yes, it's the New Wave theme..... available in Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope)

Nice tutorial, but i prefer native Linux programs for torrents like Deluge, Transmission or Azureus. Deluge is the Best for Bit Torrent in Ubuntu

Works perfectly albeit it slows down my system. The directory in which the torrents can be saved can be adjusted within utorrent. I created a folder in linux and directed utorrent to download the files there with utorrent.

I followed these instructions and it is working fine, except I click to download a torrent, and Firefox downloads the file, but it does not open uTorrent. Please help me get this running.

i found a way that works:

install wine
install utorrent using wine
open utorrent and drag the torrent file into the torrent screen

I've used this and it works. One question though. When using uTorrent in Windows, if I double click on an avi file, it will open VLC media player. when using uTorrent in Ubuntu, I am not able to double click on an avi file and have VLC play the file. I need to open the file from the downloaded location. Is there a way around this? I'm hoping someone can help.

http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#head-e03d797155ac6e9d8176f045acbdeebc28ad33d4

i've done everything about the wine windows app. installer and followed the instructions for installing the utorrent on my ubuntu. but after clicking on the install button nothing happens, and a dialog box arrives saying that "it seems like utorrent is already working but not responding. close all utorrent processes and try again"...what should i do about this?

Do you have utorrent running in your system tray area? It should be an icon there... right click on it and close it.

HELP!!! It Didnt work! i did everything exactly has you said a cuple of times... restarted the machine has well but everitime i click install Utorrent i get a message that says: "Seems like utorrent is already running, but not responding. please close all utorrent processes and try again" but there are no other processes runing! I Know I Just restarted my machine! what should I do?

I have the same problem as ashesh gaur and Samuel, I get the same error message. I am positive it is not running but still get this.

utorrent used to work fine until I upgraded to 9.04, now it wont start at all, even after deleting and downloading again, I still get this message. Anybody know how to fix this?

Exactly same problem as Samuel. Any suggestion? thanks

Same problem with version 1.8.3, I tried with 1.7.7 and it worked. Any suggestion to make work the latest version.Thanks.

i did up to step 2 but when i select wine windows programme lauder it says,
"it seems utorrent is already runing but not responding please close all utorrent process and try again"
why is that?
thanx

Same thing here.

same problem as sam. i restart then install wizard comes up. then "it seems utorent is already running but not responding please close all utorrent processes and ty again."

Hey mate. I tried using the 'open file with -> choose application' in ff and upon selecting uTorrent.exe it does open in utorrent but then an error comes up saying 'path not found'.

I'm guessing it has to do with the pathname forward/backward-slash conventions for unix and windows. When you add a torrent in wine, the location of the files to be downloaded is described using the windows convention (), but the torrent file I'm trying to add has pathname '/media/disk-1/downloads' and I think that's where things get mixed up. I reckon wine is trying to add the file but it has the forward slash pathname.

This is only a hypothesis though. So if you or anyone else could explain this or help me find a solution, I'd appreciate that very much :)

Same thing here. i restart then install wizard comes up. then "it seems utorent is already running but not responding please close all utorrent processes and ty again."

Worked just fine for me on Ubuntu 9.04 a.k.a. Jaunty but since i installed 9.10 i get the same annoyance "it seems utorent is already running but not responding please close all utorrent processes and ty again." and then i close them and restart, only to get the same message. i am using wine-1.0.1 and latest stable utorrent. The thing is i also tried some older version of utorrent and came up with the same results. So must be something in the wine config that doesn't recognize the setup has already finished when trying to start the .exe

Im also getting the "it seems utorent is already running but not responding please close all utorrent processes and ty again." message. Seems to be something to do with 9.10?

i ve got the same error, anyone can help??

"it seems utorent is already running but not responding please close all utorrent processes and ty again."

Same problem for me: "Seems like utorrent is already running.....please close all utorrent processes and try again". So I closed the processes (utorrent & wine-related) via ubuntu's 9.10's System Monitor (from the System/Administration menu). But every time I tried starting the INSTALLED version of utorrent (latest stable v1.85), it always sent me to the install loop, hence a circle. Finally got it working thanks to ARFY's & JOEY's comments in http://blog.mymediasystem.net/uncategorized/utorrent-1-8-3-doesnt-install-on-linux-via-wine/ : placed a space and /NOINSTALL switch after the quotes in the INSTALLED utorrent shortcut.

/NOINSTALL works for me with 9.10. Cheers

/NOINSTALL was just what the doctor ordered. Thanks a mill bro.

after installing the wine package
i had the same install prompt:

"it seems utorent is already running but not responding please close all utorrent processes and ty again."

looked at

http://blog.mymediasystem.net/uncategorized/utorrent-1-8-3-doesnt-install-on-linux-via-wine/

install the mirror version on his page( this is utorrent 1.8.2) and it will work. you can then jus uprgade to the newest version.

the second prompt that will come up is the update to utorrent 1.8.4, just click yes and you should be updated right away.

I got the message"It seems as utorrent is already running", when i tried to install uTorrent 1.8.4 through wine. But this error does not come if you try to install utorrent 1.8.2 or a older version. (or so i've heard).But i cant seem to uninstall it ive tried typing "wine uninstaller" in the terminal which is a bit like windows' add or remove programs panel, but it doesnt remove them and ive tried just deleting the file or looking for some kind of uninstall file ...
If anyone can figure out how to uninstall something in wine i think alot of ppl would appreciate it.


Once you figure out how to uninstall utorrent you have to install utorrent 1.8.2 through wine ,then you can either use it like that or upgrade it .Apparently its a kind of bug in the intallation bit, i havent done it but im sure it will work...

Dominique

Please update your tutorial with the use of the "/NOINSTALL" flag as mentioned above. This is the key to using uTorrent on 9.10.

Thanks for help so much!!

hi ,

i tried installing, but i get the error :

if i use script to install:
fixme:heap:HeapSetInformation 0x110000 0 0x47ae3c 4
fixme:heap:HeapSetInformation 0x5d0000 0 0x47ae3c 4
fixme:heap:RtlCompactHeap (0x5d0000, 0x0) stub


GUI:
It seems like Utorrent is already running,but not responding.
please close all utorrent process and try again.

let me know how to fix it

I got all the way to open with wine windows program loader but then it says utorrent is running but not responeding close all utorrent files and try again

For all the guys with the "utorrent is running but not responeding close all utorrent files and try again" error after installing... please SKIP the Uttorrent installation part via Wine.

Just create the installer and add the /NOINSTALL option to the command. Like this:

wine "/home/YOURUSERNAME/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/uTorrent/uTorrent.exe /NOINSTALL"

And put the utorrent.exe file somewhere safe :)

I will modify the guide to reflect this important change!

I am having problems with this. I did everything and when I click on the icon it will not open. I use Ubuntu. Can anyone advise.

Thanks,

I'm running uTorrent with setup. How do I upgrade to uTorrent 2.0 without losing my settings? I can't find the settings files anywhere on my machine.

It is located under the .wine/drive_c/Programs/uTorrent folder. It is a hidden folder! (press CTRL + H to see hidden folders in Nautilus, GNOME's explorer)

Installing and running utorrent is easy but port forwarding and other tuning is hard!.

i tried this on edubuntu
ive donr everything but the application doesnt start
help?

Dont use the quotations.

wine "/home/YOURUSERNAME/uTorrent.exe /NOINSTALL"

try this: wine /home/YOURUSERNAME/uTorrent.exe /NOINSTALL

Just use "kTorrent" for Linux ppl.

But Yes, thats how you would have to use "uTorrent" made for WinBlows in Linux?
...and thanks for the Instructions.

But, why doesn't uTorrent just make a port of their own to LINUX period ?
ya I know, I will let then know again, that Linux is here to stay, simple as that.

BTW, one torrent you didn't mention is "kTorrent" (KDE's uTorrent-like app) directly available on ALL Linux distro's,...

kTorrent = uTorrent.

Just use "kTorrent" ppl, for any Linux.
kTorrent = uTorrent

thanks thanks thanks! works so good, and the webui works too!

how to add - sellect utorrent icon?

well that was a load of BS, i followed it exactly.
when i double click on the icon on my desktop, absolutely nothing happens...

E: Invalid operation wine

thats what comes up in terminal when i type in
sudo apt-get wine

Use the "install" trigger to install applications with apt-get. For example:

sudo apt-get install wine

The guide works very well! Just pay attention to the instructions!

Thank you! It is work!

good tutorial...works fine

This is pissing me off... Ive tried what you said by putting
wine "/home/mick/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/uTorrent/uTorrent.exe" And it doesnt open
I also tried
wine "/home/mick/utorrent/utorrent-1.8-alpha-6838.upx.exe" And it still doesnt open :/

Any help please people.?

Hi, when I try imstalling uTorrent it says this:

An error ocurred while loading the archive


Archive: /home/gladys/Desktop/utorrent.exe
[/home/gladys/Desktop/utorrent.exe]
End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not
a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the
latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on

zipinfo: cannot find zipfile directory in one of /home/gladys/Desktop/utorrent.exe or
/home/gladys/Desktop/utorrent.exe.zip, and cannot find /home/gladys/Desktop/utorrent.exe.ZIP, period.

Worked! And I know zilch about Linux.
But I did not have to "Create a desktop shortcut..." as in Step 2.
Next line "Create Launcher..." created shortcut automatically.
Thanks

I did everything but when I went to double click it.. nothing opened.

i use ubuntu 10.04 32bit...this is what i did to get utorrent to work and it work flawlessly....

(1) install wine by following the guide above
(2) download latest utorrent (utorrent 2.0.4) and save to home directories
(3) create launcher on desktop
(4) fill this to the launcher....
type = Application
name = utorrent
command = wine /home/YOURUSERNAME/utorrent.exe /NOINSTALL
(5) click utorrent icon on the desktop and download the iron man 2 dvdrip and enjoy!!

i love you!
it all worked as described -
i simply love you!

Concise and correct. Worked for me the first time.
Thanks Marius

thanks bro u really help me

WORKED! AMAZING! THANKS ALOT

I have a problem, I simply can't get to the package manager. I click it, it looks like its opening, and then it just..... dissappears. I have this problem with more of the programs. Do you have any idea what is wrong ?

I followed all the steps...
Yet in the final step , when I double click on utorrent icon on my desktop..nothing is happening..no response..Does this mean my installation is a failure..Should i uninstall now.?
Please help...I am new to ubuntu.

it is raising an error when i am trying to create a laucher....it says the directory doesnot exist.

not bad

it was helpful;

how to use on guest account

Its not working at all. please help me and send your views at memyid@rediff.com

i did everything step one said, but when i went to download uTorrent with wine it said:

The file '/tmp/utorrent-4.exe' is not marked as executable. If this was downloaded or copied from an untrusted source, it may be dangerous to run.

what am doing wrong?

it doesn't work for me...

Hey, every time I try to open the launcher it says that utorrent is "already running but not responding" and to "close all utorrent applications and try again", is anyone else having this problem? Also I tried restarting my computer but that didn't seem to work...

Please look above there is a solution..
I tried this:
1. i downloaded the executable file
2. placed it in my Downloads folder.
3. opened a terminal
4. typed in the terminal < wine /home/my_user_name/Downloads/utorrent.exe
5. Here is what i get :
fixme:ver:RtlGetProductInfo (6,1,0,0,0x4c5b3c): stub
fixme:heap:HeapSetInformation 0x110000 0 0x4b43c8 4
fixme:heap:HeapSetInformation 0x2b4000 0 0x4b43c8 4
fixme:commctrl:TaskDialogIndirect 0x7ef9ac, 0x7efa18, (nil), 0x7efa1c


It should work as NewUbuntuUser said in the top of this page.
I also tried the main tutorial, and tried the "making link" tutorials too...

HELP PLEASE !!!!!!!!!

What a great tutorial, simple, clean, and easy to follow. Good for beginners to learn how to start using WINE.

sorry doesn't work man, i did exactly in this tutorial but it doesnt works, please assist. tha

using ubuntu 10.10 and virtual box, host=windows 7 ultimate 32 bit os.

When I tried to open the Utorrent, a box said "It seems like Utorrent is already running, but not responding. Please close all Utorrent processes and try again"

What can I do??

I have this problem too recently.. I find this script I found on the webs for handling web browser .torrent file launching sorts it out (not sure why, probably the WINEPREFIX variable)

Set this up..


#!/bin/sh

if [ "$1" ]; then
torrent_file="Z:`echo $1 | sed 's/\//\\\/g'`"
env WINEPREFIX="/home/media/.wine" wine \
"C:\\Program Files\\uTorrent\\uTorrent.exe" "$torrent_file"
else
env WINEPREFIX="/home/media/.wine" wine \
"C:\\Program Files\\uTorrent\\uTorrent.exe"
fi

i got this to work on ubuntu 10.10 by

1. installing the wine packages
2. downloading utorrent 2.0

(note the version is important! the ones on utorrents site are too new to work.

I got utorrent v2.0 from here

http://www.oldapps.com/utorrent.php?old_utorrent=31

3. copied it to home then ran it from terminal using wine //utorrent.exe

hope this helps

thanks man ur a great help will continue looking for guidance

thank you so much !!!

Thanxxxxxxxxx its working fine

Thanks for the instructions. I am a true BRAND NEW user and have been having a hard time working my way around Ubuntu but I am trying to stick to it as I am sick of Windows. In any case, I got uTorrent to work but only after I realized that 1. I needed to download the Windows version of it in order for it to work with Wine and 2. I needed to remove that " /NOINSTALL" from the command when setting up the desktop shortcut. When I tried it the first few times it just did not do anything and then I saw your screenshot did not have that in the command line.

Thanks again!

when i click on install button eerors comes on scree...THe error is:-

after installing successfully i can not able to luach the application.

Please Help..

i followed the steps and i click on the utorrent but it wont open also im new to this

i am using the new Ubuntu linux OS and when i followed the steps i tried to open the file with wine and i got this error message


The file '/tmp/utorrent.exe' is not marked as executable. If this was downloaded or copied from an untrusted source, it may be dangerous to run. For more details, read about the executable bit.

how do i unblock this

thanks alot......

ermm the download link has no .exe file

no i got different error

Awsome

Procedure didn't work for me, with ubuntu 11.10 installed. Made it as far as created link to desktop. Create Launcher not on menu.

good article. thanks i used utorrent like this before. but I think transmission is enough.

I am not able to find my completed downloads. Not able to get the download location of utorrent.

i dont understand this . pls help me

sorry but this isn't necessary utorrent can be download on ubuntu without using wine!

Two really important things aren't discussed in the article: Actually installing uTorrent after the download, and the subsequent configuration of uTorrent after the install. That's quite a big gap in reality.

One large problem in the uTorrent config that's begging questions is setting the directories for downloads and .torrent files. Try setting your download directory for /home/Gladys/Downloads while uTorrent is only config'd to work in a DOS namespace (e.g. "c:\program files\utorrent\downloads").
