Hi All
I have just installed Transmission on my QNAP TS-110 Nas.
Downloading is excellent and is the web interface tools are excellent
But none of the tools used have the "Create Torrent" menu.
This is a function to be activated? How?
Thanks in advance
Create torrent on NAS
Re: Create torrent on NAS
You can do it using a command-line tool (i.e. from telnet/ssh) that comes with transmission daemon.
Then, you load it to transmission (you might need to tweak the torrent file's permission (chmod) or ownership (chown) depending on the login credentials you use in the telnet/ssh session and the account you use to run transmission.
Code: Select all
sh-3.2# transmission-create --help
Usage: transmission-create [options] <file|directory>
Options:
-h --help Display this help page and exit
-p --private Allow this torrent to only be used with the specified
tracker(s)
-o --outfile <file> Save the generated .torrent to this filename
-c --comment <comment> Add a comment
-t --tracker <url> Add a tracker's announce URL
-V --version Show version number and exit
sh-3.2#
Re: Create torrent on NAS
Thanks Maki for the answer.
But... using putty to access the nas, and running the command suggested, I receive this error :
[~] # transmission-create --help
transmission-create: error while loading shared libraries: libevent-2.0.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
What I missing ?

Re: Create torrent on NAS
What's the output from running the command:
On my NAS it looks like its either statically linked with libevent or more likely that transmission was built without the libevent support:

ldd transmission-create

Re: Create torrent on NAS
Here the output :
[~] # ldd transmission-create
ldd: ./transmission-create: No such file or directory
[~] #
Sorry if it's a stupid question, but I'm no so strong in Linux use.
[~] # ldd transmission-create
ldd: ./transmission-create: No such file or directory

sigh, oh boy.
You should use the full path to transmission-create. If you don't know where it is, try running the command:
Edit: So from your answer I understand that you didn't compile it yourself. Contact the person(s) who compiled it and report this issue.
