Magnetized transfer - retrieving metadata (0.00%)

Post by methylik »

Hi,

I'm running Transmission 2.82 (14160) on FreeNAS 9.1.1 and magnetized torrents are not being downloaded.
The status just says: Magnetized transfer - retrieving metadata (0.00%) and stays like that forever.
I'm getting a list of peers, the trackers, I can see information about the torrent (hash, origin, size), but no file(s) that are supposed to be referenced by the torrent.
When I'm looking at the .resume file for a magnetized torrent, it's smaller than a normal torrent and it doesn't appear to be a valid torrent.

When I'm using an actual torrent file, everything works.

Any ideas on what is happening?
Do I need to set specific permissions to a particular directory?
