stops seeding after a few minutes. [Solved]

Post by fatmann66 »

as far as I know I shut off all idle timers and queues. still after a few minutes the torrent switches from seeding to finished.

also I confirmed port Fwd is configured and tested that port is open

here is my settings file. did i miss something??

Code: Select all

Ok,

it looks like this is caused by bad version of Transmission that ships as the default package of Ubuntu 16.04. by adding the PPA for transmission and updating you get 2.92 which seems stable and resolves a few problems that I was having.
