New Transmission add-on thread

OS 6 continues to be a mess....Updated to 6.0.8 and Transmission indicated there was an update available, 3.0. Updated and of course the update failed while OS 6.0.8 indicates I have 3.0 installed but when I launch, 2.7 is installed.

Just an absolute mess!!!!! Don't understand why NTGR can't get this app issues straight with OS 6.

No that's correct

3.0 is the GUI release, I update the GUI for frontview to a better version and decide to use a different release number

Updated to 6.0.8 as well as transmission ver 3.00.1.

I have looked through for the files that need editing as the credentials do not work when i try to login.

Here's my config for settings.jbod which was found in /data/Transmission/config

Just to mention, transmission has never worked for me yet as this was all newly setup.

Could not find the stop.sh file anywhere.

Can anyone explain what i'm supposed to do or missing.

I've already tried to edit the port, password, disable authentication........

Still no joy. Would appreciate the help.

modif the setttings.json in config dir
"rpc-authentication-required": false,

"rpc-port": 8181, (put the prot uou want

do this when transmission is not running (not enabled in frontview)

Hi,

Tried that but it comes up with page cannot displayed.

Please note that i'm accessing it over the internet (port forward) and not within my local network.

Hi folks
I´m also having some issues since 6.0.8 and Transmission 3.00.1 updates.
Before update everything worked fine, but after update and reinstall of Transmission I first got "connection error" when launching Transmission.
After a reinstall I could login with a new password( admin), but now if I stop the Transmisson service I can´t get it to work again without a new reinstall, same if I reboot the NAS.
After reboot I get "connection failed" and have to reinstall Transmission.
I tried to do a clean install and discovered that no maps in "data" were made like when I installed the previous version. (data/transmission)

Anyone got an idea what´s up?

Thanks in advance :)

I just installed transmission for the first time and was prompted to update to version 2.40.03 which took several attempts to update. After that my saved files were no longer visible on the ReadyNAS or through Windows. The funny thing is that the ReadyNAS Frontview disk usage indicated that the files were taking up space and my TV was still able to stream these files via DLNA service. I had to reset the unit to factory default and start from scratch. Seams like a bug somewhere.

Don't be silly............. :neener:

Transmission is extremely stable and has a lot of options allowing users to configure it in almost anyway they want. It's really easy to use and anyone can get the hang of it in no time.

--download-dir /data/Transmission/Donwloads"

There's a mismatch / spelling error in the Downloads dir entry in this line from start.sh . I really have no clue whether some of the issues stem from this but the dev might be able to help.
...

Also, is it possible to choose a separate download dir for each torrent? Shifting stuff to a different share is damnably annoying as it takes ages - even through the web interface. ( RN 6.0.8 )

Let me check but this typo was corrected for me in last version and start.sh is no more used

It use /etc/init.d/transmission

Also - how do I get Transmission to start automatically when the NAS starts up - as of now, I have to enable Transmission each time from the Apps page

Edit: Using an RN102 with 6.0.8

(I have changed the default login and password)

cheers...
