Deluge Hosting Live In 5 Minutes

Deploy Deluge hosting and run a self-hosted torrent client that you manage from any browser on a dedicated Cloud VPS. xCloud starts the pinned Deluge 2.2.0 LinuxServer.io image with a generated web password in place of the well-known default, keeps settings and downloads on persistent volumes, publishes the BitTorrent ports and serves the web interface over HTTPS on your own domain.

What is Deluge?

Deluge is a lightweight, free software, cross-platform BitTorrent client with full encryption, a web interface and a plugin system. It runs as a daemon, so downloads continue while you are away, and you manage it from a browser or other clients. Run on your own server it is a self-hosted Deluge, a do-it-yourself alternative to renting seedbox hosting, released under the GPL-3.0. Use it only for content you may legally download and share.

On xCloud it is the community LinuxServer.io image linuxserver/deluge 2.2.0-ls384, not an image published by the Deluge project, pinned by digest. The deluge_config and deluge_downloads volumes hold settings and files. The web interface sits behind HTTPS with one password, while the BitTorrent ports are published directly and the daemon's remote-control port is not.

From Sign-Up to a Live Deluge In Just 3 Easy Steps

A Deluge install normally means the daemon, its web interface, a password to replace, a listen port that matches what you publish, two volumes, a domain and a certificate before the first torrent. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

Step 01
Sign Up
Create your xCloud account and pick Deluge from the OneClick catalog. Choose a domain and a server, and enter a web password of at least 12 characters, or leave it empty to have 24 generated.
Step 02
We Deploy It For You
One click. We start linuxserver/deluge 2.2.0-ls384, pinned by digest, as one container, replace the default password before Deluge starts, mount deluge_config and deluge_downloads, publish the BitTorrent TCP and UDP ports and serve HTTPS.
Step 03
Sign In, Open The Ports, Add A Torrent
Wait about a minute and sign in with the password only; there is no username. Open both BitTorrent ports in your own firewall if the server has one, then add a torrent or magnet link for content you may legally download.

Everything Deluge Does, On Your Own Server

Deluge 2.2.0 runs here as a daemon with a web interface, with its settings and downloads kept on volumes you own.

Lightweight BitTorrent Client
Deluge is a lightweight, free software, cross-platform BitTorrent client with full encryption, per the LinuxServer.io image description.
Web Interface
Add, pause and remove torrents from the browser. The web interface connects to the daemon inside the same container by itself.
Plugin System
Deluge has a plugin system that extends the client. Anyone with the password can enable plugins, so give the password only to people you trust.
Default Password Replaced
The well-known default password is replaced with yours before Deluge starts. Deluge has one password and no username.
Public Peer Ports
The BitTorrent TCP and UDP ports are published on the host. Peers can reach you, and they can also see the server's public IP address.
Config And Downloads Apart
Settings and torrent state live on deluge_config, and finished files on deluge_downloads, so you can size and back them up separately.

What You Can Do With Deluge

Run a torrent client that stays online
Keep downloads and seeding going on a server that stays on, instead of leaving a laptop or home machine on.
Manage downloads from any browser
Add magnet links and torrent files from the web interface on a phone or desktop, and watch progress without a desktop client.
Extend the client with plugins
Use Deluge's plugin system for extra features, enabling only the plugins you trust, since the password allows anyone to switch them on.
Fetch large legal files, such as Linux images
Download open-source distributions and other freely distributable files to the server's downloads volume, then move them where you need them.

Deluge vs Alternatives

Seedbox hosting: Deluge on xCloud is a client you run yourself on your own Cloud VPS, with the files on your own volume and the firewall your responsibility.
qBittorrent: Available as its own OneClick app; Deluge uses a daemon/client model, with a web interface, a plugin system and other clients that can connect to the daemon.
Transmission: Deluge runs here as a daemon with its web interface in one container, uses libtorrent for the BitTorrent protocol and adds features through plugins.
AriaNg: Also available as a OneClick app; Deluge is a dedicated BitTorrent client, with public peer ports and settings and downloads on separate volumes.

Hear what people are saying about us

See why agencies, developers, startups, and growing businesses choose xCloud to power their projects.

xCloud works really well, I am surprised by its performance being this the release version, I have tried many paid platforms such as runcloud, cloudpages or serveravatar, as well as free platforms such as CyberPanel, CloudPanel or Hestia Control Panel and direct competitors such as SpinupWP and FlyWP. Of all those that I have tried, the platform that works best for WordPress is SpinupWP and I believe that xCloud can reach and surpass that development, its roadmap is promising. Congratulations to the xCloud team, I hope they become the leading platform in the segment, it has all the potential to achieve it!

Brian Geovanny

I've been with runcloud for the last 3 years. However, after trying xcloud for the last month, I'm switching over. They are on a roll with their setup.

Kevin Pineda

I'm moving my servers to xCloud, a cloud control panel by M Asif Rahman and the WPDeveloper team. Their roadmap looks interesting and no, there are no team mates nor API limits with xCloud! #xCloud #wordpress #hosting

How Cloud Nine Web Elevated Client Experience While Streamlining Hosting Operations using xCloud

Ed Ellingham

xCloud is like having an expert server team on call — without the big agency costs. It's given me back my time and given my clients peace of mind. Highly recommended for freelancers and small teams who want reliable performance and security.

Dumitru Butucel

xCloud isn't just a solution. It's like one of that friend who got your back when you screw things up pretty bad.

Waqar Ahmed

Trust me when I say, once people explore the potential of xCloud they gonna switch from other panels, just keep delivering the best tech, lots of love for the team 😍😍

Rahul Singh

So far my experience has been smooth like silk. I didn't imagine that configuring and managing a VPS would be so easy. As of today, I have deployed 8 sites. The support is good, and they treat users with respect, even if they ask stupid questions (myself included). For the future, I hope for greater flexibility in scheduled backups and more comprehensive and consistent documentation. I'm sure that within a few months, xCloud will become the leader in its segment. This community is amazing, and the Staff here is super helpful.

Massimo Villa

Came from cloudways then to runcloud then to xcloud. Looks like I'm staying here.

Gerson El

I've recently taken all of my Vultr-hosted sites and gotten rid of cPanel for them to substitute it with xCloud. I have to say, I'm really impressed with xCloud so far! The interface is definitely the standout feature for me.

Tony Lewis

I came from Cloudways and won't go back. Highly impressed with xCloud. Glad I gave them a chance.

Jared McDowell

I like xCloud better than RunCloud, but one thing I'll point out is that some years ago RunCloud was hungry for business, the support was outstanding, and the community was active and helped each other. Maybe it was sold, there was a change in management, or they stopped being hungry, but the quality of the RunCloud offering declined and it hasn't been moving forward quickly. My point is that currently the xCloud team has the edge and it is theirs to keep or lose

How Kevin Heinrichs Cut Hosting Costs by 84% While Running WooCommerce & Node.js Sites Efficiently

Kevin Heinrichs

I had 150 sites on cloudways and am in the process of moving them to xcloud. Much faster and better priced.

Dan Spinoza

Dear xCloud Team, I have been using xCloud for some time now and am genuinely impressed with its capabilities and the flexibility it offers by allowing users to bring their own VPS for management. It's a fantastic service, and my experience so far has been very positive. Successful migrated 5 sites on a single server. Xcloud migration tool worked great. There were few hiccups with security plugin like MalCare but disabling the plugin prior to migration worked just fine.

Rahil Maknojia

Came from runcloud. Tried xcloud and never came back.

xCloud gave me what no other hosting platform could: the flexibility of a VPS with the convenience of managed WordPress. As a solo founder running an entire business on one server, that combination is an important unfair advantage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have.

Can I run Deluge in Docker?

Yes, and this template is Deluge Docker hosting without the setup: the linuxserver/deluge 2.2.0-ls384 image pinned by digest, one container, two named volumes, the BitTorrent TCP and UDP ports and an HTTPS route to port 8112. The Deluge project itself does not publish a container.

How much RAM does Deluge need?

The template minimum is 256 MB of RAM, 1 CPU core and 20 GB of disk, and downloads need much more disk than that. That fits the first plan with plenty to spare. Disk, not memory, is usually the real limit once torrents accumulate.

What is the default Deluge password?

Deluge ships with a well-known default password that its web interface would accept from anyone. This template writes your chosen or generated password before Deluge starts, so the default never works. There is no username, only one password.

Which ports does Deluge need open?

The BitTorrent TCP port and a separate UDP port for DHT and uTP are published on the host and reachable from the internet. xCloud does not open your firewall, so open both there yourself if the server has one, or Deluge still downloads but cannot accept incoming peers.

Does Deluge have plugins?

Yes, Deluge has a plugin system. Anyone with the web password can enable plugins, and the password also lets them read and delete the downloads and make the server fetch web addresses. Keep it private and enable only plugins you trust.

Is Deluge better than qBittorrent?

That depends on what you want, and this page makes no claim either way. Deluge offers a daemon-based design with plugins; qBittorrent is available as its own OneClick app. Try both on a small test download.

Is Deluge free?

Yes. Deluge is free software under the GPL-3.0, so the client has no licence fee. The one bill is the Cloud VPS itself, whose bandwidth and disk your torrents use. Only download and share content you may legally use.

How do I back up Deluge?

Back up deluge_config for settings and torrent state, and deluge_downloads for the downloaded files if you need them. Do this on your own schedule and confirm the copy comes back cleanly. The web password lives in the environment, not in the volumes.

Backup and restore Docker apps

How do I upgrade Deluge?

Nothing upgrades itself: 2.2.0-ls384 is pinned by digest, the version is frozen at that digest until you act. The image checks for a new Deluge release and refreshes its GeoIP data weekly, but it does not install an upgrade for you. To move to a newer Deluge, back up both volumes and adopt a newer template version.

Is this a Deluge cloud service?

It is Deluge on a dedicated Cloud VPS under your xCloud login, a Deluge cloud of your own at your domain. Other peers in a swarm can see the server's public IP address, and Deluge's usage reporting is switched off.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There is no lock-in — cancel any time. Hosting is billed monthly and charged for what you actually use, so when you delete the server the unused balance is refunded to your account, less up to 10% in payment-processing fees.
