Why am I unable start the Deluge daemon from connection manager?

I am using Deluge 1.3.5 on Ubuntu 12.04. I launch Deluge and open the Connection Manager, and after clicking the Start Daemon button I get the following message in a error message box:

Unable to Start Daemon! Deluge cannot find the 'deluged' executable, it is likely that you forgot to install the deluged package or it's not in your PATH.

How can I fix this error?

Solution 1:

Deluge has two 'modes' the first is the standalone application or Classic mode and the other is a split client/server model that we refer to as Thinclient mode.

I surmise that you have disabled Classic mode so Deluge is now running in Thinclient mode. If this was your intention you need to install the deluged package via the Terminal:

sudo apt-get install deluged

Otherwise to return to the normal standalone Deluge go to preferences and enable Classic Mode again.
