Hrm, in that case maybe I should look at upgrade the RAM to at least 512MB?
The only thing that concerned me was getting the right RAM, the last thing I want is it to screw up the Data stored on the device. I know there are those inbuilt RAM tests but even those aren't 100% right?
I also have DUO with 1 GB RAM and I'm afraid to upgrade to the latest radiator 'cause of possible problems with Transmission (now use 2.04 w/o any problem). Can you please tell me the version number of Transmission that works fine with the latest Radiator?
I have a very strange problem in so far as I get a status of 'Downloading' or 'Unknown'. The torrent can be started/resumed, they download fine and gets to 100% but never gets marked as completed ( or do I get an email telling me it is complete ). Has anyone else experienced this problem ? Whats the solution ? Permissions seem absolutely fine, but obviously something is not right.
It showed up as an update on frontview for me. Didn't work on the first try, but the second try did. I don't have the problems with 2.42 noted above either.
I kept getting Transmission Scrape Eroor: Could not connect to tracker. My brother in law's NAS(different house same ReadyNAS Duo) can connect to the tracker but not my NAS. I looked at the settings and it seems that my port is closed. I have opened it in the router and still states closed. I've tried every version of transmission and none of them work at all! I have not changed any of the file settings. I now i have the error Scrape Error: Tracker could not respond
The tracker is up and running.
Please help. On the latestRAIDiator 4.1.8 [1.00a043].
I'm guessing i'll look ashamed when i read the answer, but, explain it to me as if i was stupid, how, n' where do i edit "/addons-config/Transmission/transmission-daemon/settings.json file" ? I'm just assuming here, but since the file isn't visual "all the time" (at least, i don't find it, did i look in the wrong area?) i'm guessing i have to SSH in to the box, and find it there. Guess that means installing the SSH add-on, figuring out where the SSH port is, and what user it has set. Password is supposedly the same as the Frontview one, so i think i know that one. Should figure out how to change it, while changing the Transmission password. So far it's just the password that is eluding me, perhaps as i havent even started using transmission yet...
Does anyone have an opinion as to how well the NAS, running Transmission, plays with private trackers? And do's n' don't i should be aware of? Thank you for your time. B!
The addons-config folder is a share, so the easiest way to get there is by browsing to your NAS using CIFS and the admin account (the one you use to log into Frontview). After that you can look up the settings.json file at the location mentioned. The addons-config folder isn't visible is you log in with CIFS using a guest account (if you give no credentials).
I'm using Transmission to download from private trackers and it's working fine with me. The only "problem" i see is that it doesn't show the total amount of seeds/peers when i'm using private trackers, it has no problem connecting to them though. It does show the total amount of seeds/peers when i'm using a public tracker.
Guess i'm doing something wrong, when ever i try to connect to that share i get a popup asking for user / pass, but the user is preselected, and cant be changed, set to Readynas\Guest, with no working password. Well, none that i know at least. I got to get going, i've spent half an hour trying to figure this out with the help of Google, but so far no luck. I'll poke it with a bigger stick when i get home tonight. B!
I don't know if it matters, but I noticed that in my settings.json, there was no "/" at the end of the directory paths. So "download-dir": "/c/Torrent/", would be "download-dir": "/c/Torrent",
Also, not that you have a space at the end of the path of your watch-dir, is that space also in the name of the directory?
Lastly, I don't know what permissions are set on a new folder if you log in with CIFS using a guest account...
@ JarnoG tnx for your comment, i haven't even tried the watch dir because nothing worked at first, but will soon try it out. It is now possible for me to download torrents, my problem was the incomplete dir, i thought it would be made automatic by transmission but it didn't. I made it manually and now i'm able to download, maybe this will help the others who are getting the same probs that i have. Thank you for you patients (or something like that lol).
Guys, after upgrading to 2.42, the setting to control browser refresh frequency has disappeared.
This was always session-specific anyway and would often revert back to 5 seconds, but at least I could keep changing it. Now, the setting has been removed from Preferences.
Has anyone found a way to get this back? The JS file that one would normally edit to fix this globally is a binary in the ReadyNAS add-on, so I can't make the change there.
I'm having the same problem as the guy a bit further up.
Transmission says that "Port is closed" when I check the port in the UI menu. I've tried a variety of versions, neither of them are working.
I've checked my router, and the port is open. (Even tried to change the port, and I can see that my router automatically changes so that the chosen port is open)
I also tried to use the "in-built" torrent client, but this is not working either.
I recently moved, and as far as I can remember, I was able to use the Transmission Add-On before this. I've brought the router from my old house, but I've changed the ISP.
I first thought that the ISP in some way was blocking Torrent traffic, until i booted up my Ubuntu machine and tested Transmission from this. Works like a charm.
I'm lost here. Are there any others who have encountered this (and found a solution)?
EDIT: Oh, and...
Current version: RAIDiator 4.1.7 Transmission 2.31
I don't know if it's possible with the standard web interface, but Transmission Remote dotnet can. Right-click on the torrent -> Bandwidth allocation -> download/upload speed
I am thinking for restoring my NAS Duo back to factory reset. Don't know if anyone tried it and re-installed transmission and worked? I rely on transmission to up my ratio.

I've got a duo (original) and Transmission stopped working a long time ago... not sure why. I'm trying to update to the current version, but the "upload and verify" spinner on frontview just stays there forever. Is the Transmission addon still supported on the old Sparc units?
I've been trying to get it back up and running on my SPARC unit for ages now. 2.31 seems to install OK, but then crash every few hours. 2.33 onwards don't seem to install correctly (they show popup errors on frontview) and also fall over pretty quickly. And the older 2.1x version had constant trouble with changing the owner on key files, meaning torrents die with bad permission errors.
So overall I've not yet found a version that just works, and suspect future versions will continue to exhibit these issues. I've tried diagnosing what the errors are on install, but cannot see where this is logged, and have not been able to find anyone who knows either.
Now these could be issues with my box only, so please do still give it a shot, but as a warning I've been trying every month or so to sort my box out for about a year now, and think I'm going to have to find another solution 😞
