New Transmission add-on thread

Hi, I am new to these forums and this platform.
I have a ReadyNAD NVX, an intel based system, and have tried installing Transmision for some time now, but only get "invalid image". It is quite consistent, so I must be doing something wrong.

I have tried all these:
06/19/2010 12:56 PM 11,730,944 PRO-Transmission_2.01b02.bin
06/10/2010 12:11 AM 6,523,392 Transmission_1.93Light.bin
06/19/2010 12:38 PM 8,786,432 Transmission_2.00.bin
06/10/2010 12:00 AM 8,868,352 Transmission_2.00b02.bin
06/19/2010 12:58 PM 14,500,352 Transmission_2.01b02.bin

"invalid image" all the time, also after rebooting. I have a suspicion that perhaps I am using images that are meant for sparc platforms, but there seems to be little in the form of a summary of what images can be found, for which platform.

Can you please direct me to an image that should be installable on my system?

Thanks for your help!

If you have an NVX, you want a file that starts with PRO-

Can you try another web browser?

Thanks! It worked using IE8. Now why did it NOT work with Firefox 3.5.9?

3.5.9
you do realise the latest is 3.6.3?

*ONGOING BUG*

S-P, thanks to charles at tranmission bug trac, there seems to be an issue the way the transmission service stops on the DUO.
i mention this has been happening to me for a while; since around 1.92/1.93. not sure if it's related, but this is possibly around the time you SSH'd into my DUO to investigate a stop/start issue.

charles recommended that i stopped the torrents, waited a few seconds (around 40sec just to be sure!) and then stopped the transmission daemon. restarting the daemon 20seconds later. i then start the paused torrents; torrents resume as normal without any checking.
so, on the face of it, this seems to be an issue with how the start/stop script works on your addon. it appears (to my untrained/uneducated mind), that the daemon is being forcefully & prematurely stopped and therefore not allowing transmission to correctly write the resume data, and so torrents are being rechecked on every daemon start.

i hope that makes sense and you have the time to look into this issue.
i do find it hard im the only one experiencing this issue from both readynas and transmission users, but theres definately something up! :)

if you need SSH access again, then just let me know!

will produce a new version today or tomorrow

can you try :

http://www.readynas.com/contributed/sup ... .01b05.bin

go in /c/addons-config/Transmission and edit the transtop.sh to add your transmission password :)


let me know

thanks so much, S-P!
this transtop.sh script does work and stops torrents being rechecked unneedlessly.

however when you re-start the daemon, all torrents are in a paused state, and not their last status prior to when the transtop.sh runs.
this is obviously desired behaviour, but is there anything that can be done?

That' possible but will require some work ( It in my long todo list )

cant say fairer than that!

i'm going to stay on 2.01beta5, since having to access webgui and click 'resume all' is far quicker than waiting for multiple torrents to re-verify every boot :) (i use scheduled power on/off)
