Tracker sending invalid data: .

... ok many other things like banned client detection ... not set-up correctly will give you this message ... but most commonly - if you have the wait slot system enabled and do the following ... to reproduce the error ...

1. generate a new torrent ans start to seed it ...
2. create a new dummy user account - make sure that its a USER level account ...
3. log-in as the new user - and download the new torrent you just created ...
4. you should get the - Tracker sending invalid data: . - error reported in your bit-torrent client (use utorrent 1.7.7 or lower - it reports this error very clearly - 1.8.x also fails - but does not display the error message)

OK ... now you can see what happens - your users at the basic USER level will NOT be able to download the new torrent - for how long ... er... we don't know yet have not sat around and checked (perhaps one of you guys could do the full testing here) ...

... however is you do the testing as sysop or anything above a VIP - you will NOT get any errors - all will work fine!

... just a little warning ... that you should be aware ...

... to simply make it work for every user level ... disable the wait slot system ... in the control panel ... in the main settings section ... you will see the 10th item ...
