Transmission

i have a similar situation. i am running a Tonidoplug booting armel jaunty 9.04.

transmission installs and works fine through apt-get. version installed is 1.51. apt-get upgrade does nothing... i tried compiling for the first time using https://trac.transmissionbt.com/wiki/Building guide. things ...

still crashing... how do i enable log and check what is happening? please help this is getting me crazy... transmission is just crashing every now and then

how many torrents are you running simultaneously?

if you used frater's script to install optware, then in the s90transmission script, which you would find in /opt/etc/init.d folder, change the user to root. see if that makes any difference.

cheers !

running v1.92 daemon with optware on playonHd media player.

settings have incomplete-dir enabled. this is causing dameon crash when the torrent completes. if i disable incomplete-dir, incomplete torrents show up in the torrent root dir and no crashes so far...

anything i am doing wrong?

hi,

recently upgraded to the ipkg release of 1.91-1 on the PlayOnHd network media player with optware installed !

previous upgrade to 1.83 broke the ability to remotely add torrents directly to the daemon by using:

now i am getting a permission denied for everything in putty even though i am logging in with the root account.

hey,

now the script is fully executable and even the crond is running but even though the script resides in the /opt/etc/cron.hourly/ folder but it doesnt execute on its own every hour. cant we get to the crontab. i mean find it and edit it to include this script.

btw the script is saved as q.sh ...

hey good news... it worked. i just disapbled the rpc whitelist since am only acessing it from the lan right now. out of the three scripts, the one that actually queued the torrent is

#!/opt/bin/bash
#
# *************
# Configuration
REMOTE="/opt/bin/transmission-remote"
PATH=/opt/bin:$PATH ...

will jsut try it by disabling the rpc whitelist. and post back

SCRIPT
#!/opt/bin/bash
# *************
# transmission-remote-queue version 0.1
# Contact sam.day (at) gmail.com with suggestions, corrections, etc.
# Based on wereHampster's script from http://pastie.org/357236

finally got that CR out of the way...
and used bash to execute script and this is what it gives
[root@Asus520gu root]$ bash /opt/etc/cron.hourly/queue.sh

i first installed bash and then ipkg update just wont work. so removed it and then ipkg update worked. installed grep, gawk and coreutils and finally reinstalled bash. did <echo "/opt/bin/bash" >> /etc/shells>.

from shell which still says busybox (ash) i get the following on ...

hey...

thanks again. i did download np++ and copied the script and saved it in a .sh format, one with .bsh. i changed the path to /opt/bin/bash and add the PATH=/opt/bin=$PATH line too... #!/opt/bin/bash
# *************
# transmission-remote-queue version 0.1
# Contact sam.day (at) gmail.com ...

^^me thinks there is some progress here.

i did as u suggested. got the script #!/bin/bash

^ thanks man.

AFAIK you have to build it.

Yep, that means installing the compiler, binutils, make, other tools, all the pre-requisites for Transmission daemon (libcurl, openssl). It works, I do it all the time on my NAS (HP MediaVault), but you have to know what you are doing, or have lots of ...
