are you back around, SP or still on vaction? i have problems with transmission still! :( partially completed downloads (0%, 100%, paused and seeding are not affected) still reverify when transmission daemon restarts. also, if i change the perferences via webgui, the changes dont get written to the .json file. ie: any changes of preferences via webgui works untill transmission stop/starts.

I'm back

will take a look

try to install it again

Doh thanks it works now :).

thanks SP! :)
as always - SSH is available if you so require.

would it help any to consider moving to the 4.1.7 beta firmware, or would that have no fix for my transmission issues? (im thinking updated files)

on another note SP, are you willing to share the source code? im interesting in learning how addons are made and taking a working example should prove useful!

Hi.

I having a problem with email alerts from Transmission.
I was using the standard "email_alert" file that come preinstalled with the addon I think and I switched it to the one you give in the main post.
The problem is I'm using GMail as smtp server, and it requires whether SSL or TLS, plus smtp authentication and moreover on a non standard port. So the Nail command line in the script is not working

I'm not very confident putting my auth in plain text in the "email_alert" file, so I'd like to go back the previous file that was working fine.
Can you please copy/paste the code here for me.

Thanks in advance.

alouch - i have it working with my gmail account.
infact, i think it was a simple case of whack your gmail address into the frontview email notification section, and transmission uses that - it just works.

I have my gmail address in frontview, and I'm receiving frontview's mail (addon install, reboot, temps... etc...) but no Transmission emails at all :(

Might be worth checking the permissions on the email_alert script. My emails were initially not working either until I found out that the script didn't have execute permissions.

chmod 755 /addons-config/Transmission/email_alert

Did the trick for me.

... So basic I missed it completely...
The script wasn't executable.

Thanks yjb

permissions - gotta love 'em!

will check the binaries :)
