Installed current release on Ubuntu 14.04.4
I can't start the daemon as a service as I get:

This is probably a stupid on my part but for the life of me I can't see what it is. I tried to attach the settings file but the BBS won't let me.
Strangely if I run /usr/bin/transmission-daemon from the command line it doesn't terminate.

Thanks for the pointer to the other thread.
