Can not seed a torrent from a folder with transmission-create

[Electricsheep]

Hello everyone,
I do not know if I post in the good forum, you will tell me ...
I have a problem with transmission:
I have a server on which is installed transmission (in short, a seedbox). I can easily create torrents from a file and upload them to a torrent site.
By cons, when I try to create a torrent from a folder, the torrent is well created, it is well accepted by the torrent site but no way to seed.

Example:
I create a torrent from an epub file placed in /data/transmission/downloads/ebook/mybook (/data/transmission/downloads/ebook/mybook/mybook.epub)

Code: Select all

$ transmission-create -p -t http://server.tracker/announce -o /data/transmission/downloads/ebook/mybook/mybook.epub mybook.torrent

There, no worries, I can seeder.
But if I do:

Code: Select all

$ transmission-create -p -t http://server.tracker/announce -o /data/transmission/downloads/ebook/mybooks mybooks.torrent

Where "mybooks" is a folder.
There, the torrent is well created, it contains good informations (visible with transmission-show); It is accepted by the torrent site. But impossible to seed. It remains with the status "Download" but remains at 0%.
I do not understand what can block the creation of this torrent.

Someone would have a idea?

Regards,
PS : excuse my bad english please !

I have never used transmission-create, but transmission-create --help suggests that the order of your parameters is wrong. The payload should be the last parameter.
