The headline says the most. I was reorganizing my download folders by
changing their names. I expected that changing the download path in
deluge-web would help, and it seemed to do that, but when I checked the
"checking" queue, nothing was moving around at all. Then I stopped the
deluge service, changed the folder names back to their original names, and
now almost all torrents are failing without any help from changing
download directory or re-checking the torrents. It's simply stuck at 0%
all the time now.

I have made sure the permissions are correct, both owner and group
(deluge) can write and read to the relevant folders.

Please, how can I fix this?

Or maybe this is the last nudge over to rtorrent...

Comment (by eamdog):

The only streams I have in my "downloading" queue are torrents which yet
have had no seeders. So there is no data for them what so ever, and
nothing preallocated. And also, even files in folders of which I did NOT
change the name, torrents are suddenly failing. Is this logical?

I know this bug was posted here 5 months ago, so this might not help you
anymore. But maybe somebody else will find this useful:

If you moved/renamed the download folder outside of Deluge, then changed
the settings in Deluge to match the new location and are wondering why
Deluge will not correctly re-check the partial downloads, do the
following:

1. Quit Deluge
2. Either delete ~/.config/deluge/state/torrents.fastresume or rename it
to (e.g. torrents.fastresume.old)
3. Start Deluge
4. Force Re-Check the torrents
