How to install uTorrent v3.3 on 14.04

Solution 1:

Install uTorrent Server 3.3

Step 1: Download latest uTorrent Server from here

Note: (You need to download uTorrent Server for 13.04, also works for Ubuntu 14.04)

Step 2: Extract uTorrent Files

  • Launch terminal (with Ctrl+Alt+T or search Terminal in dash and click to open it)

    Change directory to Downloads folder

    cd ~/Downloads/
    
  • Extract uTorrent files to the /opt directory

    sudo tar -xvzf utserver.tar.gz -C /opt/
    

Step 3: Set Permission

  • Set permission on uTorrent-server folder

    sudo chmod -R 755 /opt/utorrent-server-alpha-v3_3/
    

Step 4: Set Symbolic link

  • Run the command to link uTorrent server to the /user/bin directory.

    sudo ln -s /opt/utorrent-server-alpha-v3_3/utserver /usr/bin/utserver
    

Step 5: Start uTorrent

  • Run the following command in the Terminal

    utserver -settingspath /opt/utorrent-server-alpha-v3_3/
    

Note: If you get an error about libssl.so package missing, then

  • Run the command below to install it:

    sudo apt-get install libssl0.9.8:i386
    

    then try starting it again.

Step 6: Log into uTorrent

  • Open Firefox/Chrome and browse to the URL

    localhost:8080/gui
    
  • The username is admin and leave the password field empty

Note2 : If libssl0.9.8:i386 isn't working, try libssl0.9.8, if that also doesn't work, you probably need libssl1.0.0 (Ubuntu 16.04) .
