Hash Pieces Error Message
-
I've tried multiple times to create, upload, and seed a new torrent. I'm using the QTM program supplied by GayTorrent.ru, as well as uTorrent for a client. The program creates the torrent correctly, and uploads it, but when uTorrent tries to open the torrent, I get an error message stating that the torrent "contains no hash pieces." I have successfully created and uploaded other torrents using QTM and uTorrent, so I don't know what the problem is. It was suggested to me that my filenames in the torrent might contain a foreign character, but I've double-checked and the filenames are OK.

This error most commonly comes up when one of two things happens….
-
The torrent exceeds 50 GB in size
-
One or more of the file or folder names contains an invalid character that QTM doesn't support. Check the file names and ensure that there are no strange characters. It should only have numbers, letters, spaces, dots, dashes, or square brackets. I'm not 100% sure if it supports round brackets. I believe it does, but I'm not positive on that. Apostrophes and characters with diacritical markings such as accents are the most common things to trip up QTM.
