ReadyNAS NVX - transmission 2.82 not starting
Hi friends.
I have been using transmission addon since forever. I have never had problems until I upgraded from version 2.7x to 2.82. After this update the addon wont start.
I have a copy of my settings.json file here (note umask is 0)
If i revert back to the old version everything works fine, tho i am NOT satisfied with my upload speed on this version. All the nessesary ports are open
best regards

- sharmyApprenticeAny chance of sharing how to fix? I've not been able to get 2.82 running since you released it.
- sharmyApprenticeThanks!
- RaucousAspirant2.83 worked initially on load. However, once I stopped it, changed the settings.json file to a different port and different rpc password, I could not get Transmission to start back up again.
Thanks for your support. - AbstractAspirantHello everyone,
I have an Ultra 4 Plus running 4.2.25 and I cannot get Transmission to work. I had 2.80 working at one point, but after upgrading to 2.82 I always got the "Transmission service failed to start" error.
I tried to reverting back to 2.80 to see if that would fix things ... didn't help, same error. I also tried the 2.83 linked in this thread but no dice.
my settings.json file is shown below
Thanks in advance
