I just created a helpdesk ticket regarding the redirect link leading to a 404 error page.

Just posting here so that others might avoid a duplicative request.

@Logan26 said in Are there sites specifically blacklisted from GTRU?:

Nothing illegal - it's just that I can't find certain content posted or it gets taken down almost immediately. Maybe there are some secret codes for studios or 1337 speak that I don't of (which I think was recently banned).

I'm pretty sure it boils down to DMCA copyright takedown requests. The site is searchable by non-members (via Google, etc.) so content owners can search for their property and demand that it be removed. Then it is.

It's not discussed by site administrators, to my understanding. They simply comply with the notice and life moves on. By not talking about it they are also not tacitly acknowledging that torrents for such items are sometimes found here.

This problem is ongoing. I have had contact with staff, who say it is all sorted, everything just needs restarting I have done that multiple times. I use libtorrent, and the error message in the torrent client is [Peer certificate cannot be authenticated with given CA certificates]. No connection to any torrents here for 4 days...

Yes, it's definitely still down for me. I have restarted many times but it changes nothing.

My torrents are not downloading, either. I'm using qbitorrent and it says the status of the tracker is "not working". This started happening yesterday.

i saw an outage as well, but it appears live now.

Unfortunately not for me (and others, it seems).

@yoyo22b2 I just upped a couple of BBA collection torrents the other day once I was reasonably sure that the old .ru site wasn't reflecting new torrents upped to tor.rents
...
They lasted, like, 20 minutes.

As far as I can tell, this is the most carefully policed producer out there. They are on top of new torrents within 24 hours very, very consistently. Off a DMCA takedown notice is sent and the torrent is zapped.

@Joker Yeah I was sorry to read your comment that you had JUST renewed! Yet another thing you can have against that asshole Putin...

@Joker said in Tracker using new domains:

Sorry folks, some of you run again into the let's-encrypt certificate issue we had some month ago. I was stupid enough to try it again with let's-encrypt for the new url..

I just installed a new Certificate for the new tracker.gaytor.rent url

everybody should be able to connect now ! maybe you need a restart if not

hope that helps

It seems to have been a seamless transition for me, @Joker -- I didn't even know we had transitioned. Great work! (Probably I was offline while the mixup happened...)

@dnygnm I think the only thing you can do is delete the torrent from your queue. You will stop seeding what you have but you will no longer be considered a leecher. If you and the torrent are connected to the tracker you will be considered a leecher if <100% complete.

@lordring875

i just installed a new SSL certificate not issued by Let's Encrypt for our tracker. It should now work everything as expected..

also the forum issue with the lost connection problem is solved and should not happen anymore

enjoy

Thanks, @Joker ! It is working now -- I'm ip/downloading and not getting the forum error.

Thanks so much for your (and everyone's) efforts on our behalf!

@droidx762 He's sexy.

@bi4smooth I'm on a Mac and use Transmission. I'm not abandoning it, but it's not working currently and I don't know how to get it up and running. The app is too widely used for this problem not to get fixed at some point -- but I don't know how to do it (it's likely not too hard, you just have to know how to manipulate SSL conditions within which it operates).

So meanwhile, I'll use qBittorent for a while. I like a lot of what it offers but it looks like Windows software and not an elegant Mac app, which Transmission most certainly is. qBt is def more powerful but Transmission is simple, attractive and gets the job done. Usually...

When Transmission is operational again, I'll switch back. With fond sentiments towards qBt which is an excellent client.

If you look hard in the Transmission settings, you SHOULD find an SSL (or rather, an ignore SSL errors) setting. My Mac is broken right now, so I can't give you point and click instructions, but I'm confident it is there.

So I'm not sure this is user-configurable in Transmission. I did find this at [link text](https:(https://github.com/transmission/transmission/issues/1338) but I have no idea how to set the app's environment variable...
