Rasberry PI and torrentflux-b4rt not working.. quite yet

[pobman]

Hi all,

I have decided to switch from raspbian to Arch and setup torrentflux as it seemed the best way to provide remote access to downoad to my server all types of files. however I am running into a few issues that I have not found out how to resolve yet.

I have installed LAMP as per the Archlinux instructions, and installed torrentflx manually, some issues with creating the database, The solution was to replace "Type=MyISAM" with "ENGINE=MYISAM" throughout the mysql_torrentflux-b4rt-1.0 file before importing.
python was a pain as it keept crashing on line 124 with an error turned out I need to install python2
I also had issues with php not being compatible with mysql due to not uncommenting extension=mysql.so in the php.ini file dohh!

However I am unable to get around apache not being able to run the binaries such as:
/usr/bin/wget
/usr/bin/grep
/usr/bin/awk
I get the message: File exists but is not executable

My web server is running as http
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'http 337 336 0 14:56 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/httpd -k start')
my binaries are owned by root but executable by all
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '[root@alarmpi bin]# ls -l /usr/bin/wget
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 361324 Oct 27 17:31 /usr/bin/wget')

I guess this is a php restriction? but am stuck as to what needs to be changed,

Can anyone help please.

I can't really help you, but I can tell you this.
The simplest way to run torrent client would be to install Transmission daemon (transmission-cli).
It's lightweight (slightly heavier than rTorrent), dead simple to setup, comes with web ui and you can connect to it with client from every platform. There is even a XBMC plugin for it.

I am running transmission currently but it does not have anything like the choice of options the flux has. Anyone know how I can allow http or php to run binaries in /usr/bin ?
