New Transmission add-on thread
The previous thread was very long time to open a new one and prepare the 2.0 :)

Everything went fine - but it's creating files and folders as "nobody" - whereas it used to do it as "data" (the owner of files on my "data" share).
I tried editing /etc/frontview/addons/bin/TRANSMISSION/start.sh fromstart-stop-daemon --chuid nobody:nogroup
tostart-stop-daemon --chuid data:nogroup
But then it just stopped loading, and I couldn't find any error log.
Has anyone else done this - and is there a more elegant (or possible) way to achieve this ?
Thanks,
PW
Sorry for the bump, but still having trouble with this a few weeks on - anyone got any insight or suggestions for how I might fix this ?
you must chown the binaries and the directories according to your change :)
Got it :
chown -R data /c/addons-config/Transmission/*
And then a follow up similar command on my BitTorrent directory, which still had some files owned by the nobody user.
Thanks for the assist.
Ben
