how can i seed a torrent with transmission 2.33 ?

thanks

Hey,

I got transmission and the web gui working fine. The only thing I saw left to do was customize some settings under transmission-remote. When I try and change settings there, I get:
Unexpected response: <h1>401: Unauthorized</h1>Unauthorized User

I thought I read that I needed to setup a user for the -remote and I could do so in the settings.json file. After tracking it down in Windows Explorer I get the error that "Access is Denied". I also tried to change the ownership of transmission-remote to 'nobody' like the instructions tell you to do for transmission-daemon but that just didn't work (if it's even possible?).

So how do I got about getting the permission to change settings on transmission-remote?

Thanks!

If you configured transmission-daemon to require password authentication for the WebUI (using the options '-t -u <username> -v <password> in your initial setup of Transmission), the same credentials are necessary when using transmission-remote:

$ transmission-remote -n <username:password> -l

Another problem could be that the IP address you're using transmission-remote from (usually localhost/127.0.0.1) is not on Transmissions whitelist.


This is unrelated to any Windows Explorer issues or the fact that Transmission runs as user "nobody" or any other user.

Have you tried to force-verify those partial torrents?

Verifying those partial torrents via the GUI verifies exactly the same partial amount and leaves them as-is.

Verifying via CLI has no effect either, though it returns "success" no matter what I throw at it (even invalid torrent ids.)

# transmission-remote -n $AUTHSTR -t garbage -v
http://localhost:9091/transmission/rpc/ responded: "success"

Alternatively, you could try to tell Transmission the location of the torrent data again:

It took a bit of fiddling for me to figure out that "--find" wants as arg the base data directory for all torrents -- not the specific data dir of this particular torrent. So I managed to get the torrent into an  "Error: No data found!" state, and then back to OK again... but still only partially complete. At any rate, this also did not solve the issue.

A few other notes:
* Doing a diff of the original dir on my local drive vs the copied dir on the NAS showed nothing different.
* Additionally, MD5 hashes of the files inside both these dirs were exactly the same.
* If I move one of these torrent data dirs (being listed incorrectly as partial) from the NAS back to local drive to replace the existing dir (seeding via desktop version of Transmission) it's still listed correctly as 100% in the local desktop version.

The blocklist is not being updated from that source any more. They stopped back in the spring IIRC.

Hi,
I have DNS 323 1.07 firmware, fun_plug, transmission 2.33, Network: 100/100mbit (Gbit connect, premium internet acces..)
Port's open,  uTP open and work, i see on router admin.
It work, but not fine.. NAS:9091 Preferences > Network: port is closed?!

The speed? RAID1 (2x2TB WD ecogreen)
Download MAX 16-20mbit, but it is not very problem, the Upload: MAX 1,5mbit..
Where's the problem? I think 500mhz and 32mb ram is not powermachine, but 1,5mbit up? no...

Thank you!

You can check manually if the port is actually open:

Code:

$ curl http://portcheck.transmissionbt.com/<your Transmission port>

It should return '1' for an open port and '0' if not.

0
but really open, and transmission work.. where the error?

Transmission 2.41 has been released.
Since I recently switched from a CH3SNAS to a new DNS-325, I'm not sure if this release will run on older devices as well.

Can someone with a CH3SNAS or DNS-323 please test this release and let me know if it works?

If not I'll have to dig out the CH3SNAS and do a separate package.

I've uploaded a new version, can you test that one please?

Yup, works fine on the DNS-323. Let folks know that there was some protocol change and front-ends will work a bit wonky until updated.
