This is a newly compiled version for the Duo straight from source. It has been configured with "--disable-nls --enable-lightweight --enable-utp" and the default web interface port of 9091.If it doesn't work after installation, try rebooting.Not sure if it can be install over the top of super-poussin's version, but if you are planning on uninstalling super-poussin's version then remember to save the torrent files somewhere else first.To quote myself:tarobun wrote:It looks like upgrading from Transmission 2.42 to this Transmission add-on is a no-no.

I am also suffering from this issue. I have been for about a week, but I had things so screwed up from my deb-package making attempts that I didn't worry much about it. Just finished a full and complete factory reset after backing up my data, installed the transmission 2.84 addon and am now showing the port as closed. uPnP is enabled on the router, and no peers on any torrent. The NAS has internet connectivity, tested as good.

I was running Transmission 2.42 before, but updating to RAIDiator 4.1.10 broke it. This version seems to work for me.Thanks!

Same for me, it works now. Thanks!

HiHow does one change the owner of the downloaded files?I want everyone to be able to remove/move the finsihed torrents.Thanks in advance//Lasse

Can I ask out of interest why you have disabled utp? Is there a missing lib on the NAS?Thanks

Hmm, strange.

The problem is that Transmission doesn't start. And I can't access the web gui. But after I executed your commands Transmission read the settings and encrypted my password. So something has changed. But it still don't work.

It might be better to start all over. How do I get rid of Transmission completely? Will it be enough to remove the add-on from Frontview and then the rest that is left of these:

Or do I have to tinker with some other files?

Looks like there are some old transmission files:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 7593660 Oct 31 2011 /usr/local/bin/transmission-cli
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 7808113 Oct 31 2011 /usr/local/bin/transmission-create

Best way to start again is to install the same add-on and then uninstall it. It should remove all related add-on files.

The /root/.config/transmission-daemon is the default location of the config files if you do not specify the TRANSMISSION_HOME env variable. You can safely delete this directory.

I actually did install and uninstall super-poussin' and WhoCares' Transmission versions before installing your version. But now I went through that procedure again. Uninstalled yours, installed WhoCares' version and uninstalled it, installed super-poussin' and uninstalled. But these files remains:

# find / \( -path '/c' -o -path '/USB' \) -prune -or -iname '*transmission*' -exec ls -ld {} \;

Can those files be safely deleted?

Update. I deleted the files listed above (also /c/addons-config/Transmission) and after that the installation of tarobun's Transmission went just fine!

Feedback.
The fresh install of tarobun's version of Transmission has been working quite well. But downloaded torrents often gets tracker errors. So I can't seed them. The only way I've found working to repair that is to restart Transmission from Frontview, tedious. Is this just my NAS or does others experience the same thing with their installations. This problem was rare with super-poussin's version.

Anyone else having watch-dir issues with 2.84? Seems any torrent files dropped in my watch-dir aren't being loaded. Was working on 2.83 and earlier.
