Transmission

vm4.transmissionbt.com is an internal name for a server that does also serve dht.transmissionbt.com. I presume Transmission connects to the latter since you have DHT enabled in settings.

If possible, please try the nightly build (x86, x64) and see if it helps. Regardless, take a look in Event Viewer (Start -> Run -> eventvwr.msc) and provide additional information from there regarding the crashes.

The idea was to reproduce the issue, sending SIGKILL means you weren't able to do that. If you were to succeed, AddressSanitized would print some helpful information. Please try a few more times if possible.

Since you seem to be building Transmission from sources, and if you're using recent enough compiler, try adding `-fsanitize=address` to your CFLAGS and reproducing this again.

When using transmission-deamon on Windows, it gets registered as a service and runs under LocalService account. This means that LOCALAPPDATA environment variable is specific to that LocalService user, not the user you're using yourself. On Windows 10, it would expand to something like "C:\Windo...

And if you wonder what the working directory is for your script at any point, do `echo "$PWD" > /tmp/pwd.txt`, or `env > /tmp/pwd.txt` to see the whole environment.

Both of your test scripts are using relative paths to write to a file. One does not really know what Transmission's working directory (which is what those paths are relative to by default) would be upon script execution, and need to be explicit by providing full paths to files the script is working ...

Once upon a time Apple decided it would be a good idea add this menu item to each and every program. No, Transmission doesn't support tabs (there's no good use-case for them at the moment) and the item will be removed in the upcoming 3.00 release.

You're specifying a command instead of a single file for script path, this won't work. Since we don't currently support running .py scripts directly, you'll need to create a wrapper .bat/.cmd script (specifying path to it in settings.json instead) and do whatever you want in it, including running Py...

There's work being done on that at https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/722

Removing everything in / sounds even less like Transmission (or any other non-system process really) unless you're running it with root privileges which is never a good idea.

Which client are you using (web UI, GTK+, Qt)? If you SSH into the box and execute `transmission-remote -l`, are the torrents being listed? If you SSH into the box, execute `transmission-remote -si`, take "Configuration directory" path from the output and do `ls <that directory>/torrents`,...

What I'm saying is that even if you don't mount the drive, you could still see stuff in the directory. That's how things work. Are you absolutely sure that it's mounted (i.e. did you check `mount` or `df` commands output) or are you saying it is based on the directory being non-empty? I can't see an...

This looks more like the case of unmounted drive than of Transmission deleting arbitrary files when it wasn't asked to at this point. Did you check that your `HDD_2TB` is still mounted?

Did you guys check that nothing weird is selected in torrent state and tracker combos and/or entered into filter text input? If that's not the case, please open up Developer Tools (with F12 or something) and check out error/warning messages in Console tab (excluding "Synchronous XMLHttpRequest&...
