Serious flaws in this current image, files deleted upon completion

[txhermit]

Just out of curiosity, is there a chance your container has a few typos which may cause files to be deleted upon completion of transfer and seeding? It seemed odd that the items would vanish from the list when stopped, but, ignorantly, I never considered they were being deleted.

I log into my server to grab all the waiting files and the only thing left in the download folder is the one torrent that was still active. Only about 40GB of files missing.

Do you all have a beta testing program of some kind to help make sure this stuff doesn't happen? If so, sign me up because whoever is currently involved is not doing a very good job.

Thanks.

@txhermit I think the package moves the files from the Downloading directory to the Downloaded directory when complete. Are you saying the Downloaded directory is empty as well?

I can test it out again.

I can confirm, the intended behaviour is for the files to be hard-linked from /Downloading to /Downloaded. You can do whatever you want with the files in /Downloaded (rename, move it, delete it, whatever), and seeding can continue with the files in /Downloading . Once seeding is complete, it auto-deletes the files in /Downloading. The files in /Downloaded should stay where they are until you do something with them.

@txhermit If the behaviour is something else, it's indeed not normal, but also quite surprising since I've been using the app quite a lot without noticing any problems. Do you have any kind of custom configuration or something ?
