Hi guys,
I need help. I cannot seem to get transmission to work. I have the following in my settings.json file
{
    "download-dir": "/home/nobody/Downloads",
    "incomplete-dir": "/home/nobody/Downloads",
etc...

I edit this file so the following attributes say
    "download-dir": "/mnt/HD_a2/downloads",
    "incomplete-dir": "/mnt/HD_a2/incomplete",
    then I save it. I reenter the file to verify that the data i saved was indeed saved. and it is there so my data is saved properly thats not the problem.

I go ahead and stop and then restart transmission. I try to resume a download and it errors out.
I got an error permission denied error message and the folder it points to is the folder in the ORIGINAL file, not the one i modified and saved.

It seems running start resets the file to some default value and try as i might i cannot seem to fix it.
This is what i have in the log file.
I am trying to run transmission 2.0.1.
I'm stuck, any help is welcome.
