Simply open welcome page and look on bottom right for "restart rTorrent" button, it will take a couple minutes to restart rTorrent after which you need to refresh ruTorrent via reloading the GUI.
If this does not work and rTorrent does not start, every server has automatic 2nd level redundancy for rTorrent instances checking every 10 to 15minutes. If even after 15minutes rTorrent does not start, please contact support.
Restarting rTorrent manually

- Then check if rTorrent is running with command screen -list.
- If it isn't running you can start it up with command screen -S rtorrent rtorrent and after that check again if rTorrent is running.
- If it still isnt visible in the screen -list then your probably over your quota and you should remove files from your box via FTP or from the File Manager page of the seedbox qui.
