Starting Deluge(Bittorrent) Client

[jinbaba]

Hello Folks,

I am trying to start Deluge(Bit torrent) through AutoIt "Run()" command, but Deluge GUI is not loaded. Although Run command returns the the pid of the process but GUI is never loaded.

Deluge is not like a regular executable, it is called with python script "deluge.cmd".

Can you guys tell me how to execute Deluge with AutoIt?

I am using Deluge version: 0.9.02

$file = "c:\Python25\deluge.cmd"
$pid = Run($file)

if $pid = 0 Then
    MsgBox(0, "Unable to start Deluge")
Else
    MsgBox(0, "Deluge Started.")
EndIf

Regards,

Jinbaba

umm here try this :

$file = "c:\Python25
$pid = ShellExecute("deluge.cmd", "", $file)

if $pid = 0 Then
    MsgBox(0, "Unable to start Deluge")
Else
    MsgBox(0, "Deluge Started.")
EndIf

muttley

$file = "c:\Python25\deluge.cmd"
$pid = ShellExecute($file, "", "c:\Python25\")

if $pid = 0 Then
    MsgBox(0, "Unable to start Deluge")
Else
    MsgBox(0, "Deluge Started.")
EndIf

That trips many people up, the working directory.
