Hello everyone! I'm new to this forum but I've been trying to get transmission work for a couple of days and finally I made it!! :D
So I'm going to specify a pseudo guide for what I've done since I see this is sort of tricky and many people are asking for this.
Enviorenmt:
NAS: Ultra 2
RAIDiator 4.2.22
Transmission v2.77.01
OS: Windows 8
As a default install I would get the failed to start message. I did NOT update any lib or mess up with Debian files.
Steps:
1) I enable the SSH root
2) installed NotePad++ and Bitvise Client (has terminal, SSH, and SFTP so to access config files) on my PC
3) Took the json file and set it up with the help of this: http://www.readynas.com/contributed/super-poussin/Transmission-Parameters.htm
Everything that I didn't find on the site I deleted it from the json (don't know if matters but It's what I did)
4) WATCH OUT: DEFAULT gui port in JSON is 9091 whereas the other files is in 8181 CHOOSE YOURS. I stick with 8181 so to change only the JSON
5) update username:password in all the .SH
6) start the service in frontview, IT WOULD SAY AGAIN IT FAILED but I CAN SEE the GUI so i guess it's OK (haven't added a torrent yet :P)
Notes: every File edition was made with Notepad++ and file Up/down load was made with bitvise client. If do a normal Windows copy paste Windows WILL SCREW YOUR FILES! Also check after uploading files that they end up with the same execution rigths.
Good Luck!
