I tried to install utorrent by following the instructions available at http://www.liberiangeek.net/2012/01/install-utorrent-in-ubuntu-11-10-oneiric-ocelot/ but when I got to the step of typing:

utserver -settingspath /opt/utorrent-server-v3_0/

into terminal I received the output:

IPv6 is installed

and then after a day of it stuck at this point it still hadn't installed the utorrent server.

I am using 12.10 i386 on a Dell Vostro 3500 laptop if any further details are required.

have you tried running it with elevated permissions? ie sudo or gksudo – Ringtail Dec 3 '12 at 3:39
No, thanks, I am trying it now. Will tell ya in a few hours if it works. – Brenton Horne Dec 3 '12 at 3:53
@RickGreen continuously receive the error: Failed file save: /opt/utorrent-server-v3.0/resume.dat.new Unable to save the resume file. Another program might have the file open, or the disk is full. – Brenton Horne Dec 3 '12 at 4:46
Sounds like you need to configure utorrent to save to your ~/home/"some_folder other than /opt. This again would be a permissions issue as /opt is a ROOT folder and should not be used for read-write options. Suggest you run sudo chmod -R 777 /opt/utorrent-server-v3_0/ again then retry. – Ringtail Dec 3 '12 at 5:19
@RickGreen Retried after running that code in terminal and I received the same error. – Brenton Horne Dec 3 '12 at 5:42
