qBit does delete the file from my physical drive (direct attached storage, raid5). But won’t update the free space in the WebUI. The discrepency is over 1TB, so I’d like to address this if someone can help me.
Some info:
- qBit v.5.0.1, docker, from linuxserver.io
- Ubuntu 24.04
- Automatic Management Mode is checked
- Torrent content removing mode: Delete files permanently
i’ve seen something like this before, where the kernel holds the file handle open for the process so that it thinks the file is still there. i think it’s related to how the program closes the file but i don’t remember the details. restarting qbittorent will most likely fix it.
