“transmission service failed to start” after changing the rpc password
This issue was because the password was not the same in every .sh file that was used to start the service. When renameing service password be sure to change them in all 4 programs. These files are: blocklist.sh, transtart.sh, transtop.sh and settings.json
Thanks. That did the trick!
Edit username and password in these four files:
/addons-config/Transmission/blocklist.sh
/addons-config/Transmission/transtart.sh
/addons-config/Transmission/transtop.sh
/addons-config/Transmission/transmission-daemon/settings.json
Weird, because after the first installation I only edited settings.json,
but after factory reset and Transmission reinstall I had to edit all four files.
