Installed transmission-2.94+-ra440981571-x64.msi on Win10 1809, Selecting all options to installl, main+daemon+cli+web....
And edited the settings.json file in %LOCALAPPDATA%/transmission-daemon and NOTHING worked....
Tried running "transmission-daemon.exe -f" in a cli(still on windows)...
Code: Select all
[2019-03-20 10:50:42.896] Using settings from "C:\Users\******\AppData\Local/transmission-daemon" (C:\Transmission\Jenkins\workspace\trunk-win32\arch\x64\label\pepito-win10\daemon\daemon.c:646)
[2019-03-20 10:50:42.896] Saved "C:\Users\\******\AppData\Local/transmission-daemon/settings.json" (C:\Transmission\Jenkins\workspace\trunk-win32\arch\x64\label\pepito-win10\libtransmission\variant.c:1199)
It used "%LOCALAPPDATA%/transmission-daemon".... but the transmission-daemon do just ignore that path/settings.json... when started as service.
After some digging.... and hairpulling/googeling... i found what was wrong.
It seems like transmission-daemon do NOT use "%LOCALAPPDATA%/transmission-daemon" folder for data/config... it uses "C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Local\transmission-daemon"
Note it uses the ServiceProfils in windows directory....
Is this just as it should be or somting of a bug?
Sorry for my butchering of the english language
...and a spesial thanks goes to: Mike Gelfand for pointing me here with a smile ..... NOT!
