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

Thank you very much for the 2.81 it run so well in my NV+ :)

However, did the watch directory function still working on 2.81?
Dose the following text still working?

"watch-dir": "/c/media/BitTorrent/sources/",
"watch-dir-enabled": 1

Thank you very much.

Just tested watch-dir and it works fine.

Make sure the directory exists and use
"watch-dir-enabled": true

Hmmm... not sure. That's the default permissions which is recommended by the transmission team to be "world-writable" (umask=0).

Maybe try playing around with the "umask" setting in the settings.json? Might need to do a bit of reading. :)

Hi there,
I just upgraded to Transmission 2.81 and found out that I could enter the transmission web interface, but:
- all the downloads are gone from the overview (I probably have to add this manually?);
- New downloads won't start downloaden.

I have an open port, but the downloads just won't start, what can I do to fix this?

edit; strange.. it seems that the RPC port was still on 8181 in stead of 9091.. i changed this in the .json and one of the downloads works now... the other ones don't yet....

Hmmm... upgrading from 2.42(?) is a bit tricky as the settings.json file is retained and don't default to the 2.8x settings.

Maybe try renaming the settings.json file and restarting the addon so a fresh settings.json is created which you can then edit manually.

Thanks for your reply.
I can only change the settings.json file in the 'transmission-deamon' folder... but when I change the name and start + close down transmission nothing changes.

The issue is that the folder with the new version differs from my old version.
With the new transmission the folders 'torrents' and 'resume' can be found in the root folder (\\192.168.1.105\addons-config\Transmission)
where my old torrent files can be found in the 'torrents' and 'resume' folders which are placed in the transmission-daemon folder (\\192.168.1.105\addons-config\Transmission\transmission-daemon)

I cannot copy my old files to the new folder and I don't know what I have to change to reconfigure tranmission so my old torrents can be shared again.

Is this clear and could you help me out?

Is there a settings.json in the /addons-config/Transmission/ folder? That's the one you should be changing. The other one is now unused.

Why can't you copy the files to the new folder? Do you get an error?

There are 2 way to get your old torrents back:
1) You'll need to move all the *.torrent files in /addons-config/Transmission/transmission-daemon/torrents to /addons-config/Transmission/torrents and change your download dir to point to the old folder.
2) Edit the /etc/frontview/addons/bin/TRANSMISSION/start.sh and change TRANSMISSION_HOME=/c/addons-config/Transmission to TRANSMISSION_HOME=/c/addons-config/Transmission/transmission-daemon (and also remember to do so each time you upgrade the addon).

Option 1) is the preferable one.
