- anarchoidAspirantI found the solution ;)
that /data/ dir is your nas's volume ;) my volume named `Ganesha` so if give the transmission for this location (and all other dirs also exists) :
/Ganesha/Transmission/Downloads the downloads ill`be works ;)
same settings working also with the other torrent client (qbittorrent) - super_poussinVirtuosoWill take a look but the addons should handle this
- nasripperAspiranthello guys , i got the same problem ,with an rn102 , so i modified the file settings.json and changed it to
/Nasripper/Transmission/Downloads
/Nasripper/Transmission/incomplete
But now there is an error :
Error: Permission denied (/Nasripper/Transmission/Downloads/xxxxxxxxxxx.mp4)
thanks in advance for the reply

hi from france :)
telnet / ssh in your device and made a
chmod -R 777 /Nasripper/Transmission
this command grant every kind of permission for everyone on that dir recursive
this is not too elegant but maybe working ;) - anarchoidAspirantThe solution of our problem is :
Edit your settings.json and change both download and incomplete dir to a existing directory (my nas is named Ganesha :
default:
"download-dir": "/data/Transmission/Downloads",
"incomplete-dir": "/data/Transmission/Incomplete",
edited:
"download-dir": "/Ganesha/Transmission/Downloads",
"incomplete-dir": "/Ganesha/Transmission/Incomplete",
and the transmission will work ;) - nasripperAspirantthanks for your reply
@super poussin : j'ai effacé le repertoire transmission (tapez DESTROY etc ...) et desinstallé l'application , puis reinstallé car lors de l'installation le partage "transmission" est recréé , mais j'ai verifié il y a "everyone " et lecture ecriture coché . le probléme reste .
@anarchoid i did change the setting file .json , my nas is called Nasripper so i replaced "data" like this :
/Nasripper/Transmission/Downloads
/Nasripper/Transmission/incomplete
this is the path i am able to use on total commander to access my shares , i tried to write and read file without problems .
sorry but i am new to ssh and i don't know the login / password for telnet
i updated the system to the last version way before that of course
it seems i 've got the same problem with qbitorrent , maybe i bought the wrong nas for a start ... - anarchoidAspirant

maybe try to remove and reinstall transmission
the ssh user is root the password is same that u enter on web acess
I tried to reinstall the client and edited via windows and that worked for me , but maybe just lucky with ssh u can check the permissions /owner of the dirs / files but i think a simple end user is not needed to know this things ;)
I saw the official reaynas videos and noticed , on all video the volume name is simple data ..so if u / me / we creating the volume with name data all of this problem is not happening ;) so this is only for the netgear guy's fault ;(
remember : u need to replace the 'data' with your volume name and not with your NAS's name !!!!!! - anarchoidAspirantthis is all doesnt working with qbitorrent (im investigating why) qbitorrent try to save everything under /data/ volume wich isnt working with 'our' volumenames
- nasripperAspiranthello :) thanks for your help again
i tried to change the readynas name , so now it's " data " so the path are :
\\Data\Transmission\
but the volume keep its name " RIPPER " , not able to change it apparently
------------
so i uninstalled transmission , DESTROY transmission share , reinstall and still some error ... " not a directory "
will try the ssh way to give more access tonight
