Are you behind a firewall?

as root in F7 do this

 

Code:

setup

 

and you can temporarily disable the firewall to see does it make any difference

Hi Deltanoob,

 

I have had the same problem, flushing the firewall did nothing for me... it is the strangest thing I have seen

the Bittorrent client F7 provide works fine but azereus is a no no for some reason.

Thanks everybody. I will try everything you guys suggested.

Can i force azereus to work?

[xDamox]

Hi,

 

I have managed to fix the problem,

 

What you need to do is download Azureus from their website, you also need to download Java from www.java.com and installed that

version and tell Azureus to use the java version you just downloaded.

 

There seems to be a bug with the Java provided in Fedora 7.

[Deltanoob]

Thanks xDamox! And thanks everyone else.

So how do I install Java? i downloaded it and now what?

[xDamox]

Hi Deltanoob,

 

Goto www.java.com in the top right hand corner you should see downloads select Linux (self-extracting file) once you have downloaded that

you will get a file called: jre-6u1-linux-i586.bin or similar as root type:

 

sh jre-6u1-linux-i586.bin

 

Accept the license and it will extract the contents and create a directory similar to jre1.6.0_01/ move this directory to /usr/lib using the following

 

Code:

mv jre1.6.0_01 /usr/lib

 

Once you have do that you can exit as root and type as normal user:

 

Code:

PATH=/usr/lib/jre1.6.0_01/bin:$PATH
export PATH

 

Now all you need to do is execute the azureus bittorrent client.
