fix for transmission not starting on 6.1.6/7

For what it's worth, Transmission hasn't been starting properly at system boot since 6.1.4 for me (ReadyNAS Pro).
I finally tracked it down.

in /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target/wants/fvapp-transmissionr6.service there is a line:

After=apache2.service

change that to

After=readynasd.service

For some reason, transmission, which normally does not communicate at all with readynasd, in our version, does. The error message was:

SYSLOG_IDENTIFIER=transmission
MESSAGE=Error connecting to readynasd -2
and
SYSLOG_IDENTIFIER=transmission
MESSAGE=Error processing nml request

  • @poussin can you send your dropbox address ? it used to be in your signature but I don't see it there anymore. Only two links pointing out that you live in the same French department as my mother ;)

    After installing 3.00.6 I notice that the after value is "apache2.service readynasd.service" :)

    haven't tried a restart yet, but others already report success. Thanks pst and super-poussin!
  • The fix worked installing transmission 3.0.0.6 from super-poussin dropbox.

    Tried the same workaround with amule but no results; the service is running but the system doesn't list it as active.

    Thanks a lot to pst and super-poussin!!!!!

  • How does one install this dropbox version? Is there an easy way or guide?
