Issues Seeding - Getting "HTTP Error 502"
-
I am having problems seeding. The tracker is intermittently giving an "HTTP Error 502".
I have manually updated the tracker and then for only a brief period of time does the status show as "working" then it errors out again with error 502. I have also restarted uTorrent and still have the same problem.
I am not having this issue with other trackers.
The error seems to only occur while seeding. I am seeding multiple torrents.

A few things…..
First, the HTTP error 502 is an intermittent issue that has been known to happen from time to time. Rest assured that the problem does resolve itself in time.
Second, I had to reset your passkey in order to maintain your account security. See, in the screenshot that you attached to your post, you included your announce URL, which includes your passkey. This passkey is yours and yours alone, and is used to identify your user account to the tracker. Since there is no way for me to remove the image you posted, I had no other option but to reset your passkey so that it is not posted in public.
This will mean that for all torrents that you are downloading or have downloaded, the .torrent files will no longer work and will need to be redownloaded in order to continue to seed and download content.

Hello! So if I get the HTTP 502 error after uploading a torrent I just wait for it to solve itself?

Yes… From what I have seen, the problem does resolve itself.

Crap. I'd seen that (and other errors like "the torrent is not registered…" from the tracker), and deleted the torrents 'cos I figured they'd fallen afoul of DMCA requests. Looking back now, I see that at least 4 of the torrents I'd pulled down previously are still active here.

First as Mr Mazda says it mostly sorts it self out. Just let things happen.
Second, if you've downloaded anything and haven't deleted the file, your torrent client should pick it up if you try again after downloading the torrent file anew.
