Can't access web interface

Post by igniussako »

Hi,

I couldn't find any valuable information necessary to solve my problem so decided to post a thread here.

I'm having problems using Transmission 2.83 which I download and install through STB.
I cannot access the web interface through http://myboxip:9091. The browser says Unable to connect

The transmission version was downloaded from http://ipkserver.hdmedia-universe.co...n_2.83_sh4.ipk
My STB is Amiko Alien 8900
My STB is using HDMU 13139 enigma2 Git 3318

The part of configuration file is below (maybe I need to change something here?)
LINE="--------------------------------------"
TRANSMISSION_ON=0
NAME="transmission-daemon"
DAEMON="/usr/bin/nice -n 9 /usr/bin/transmission-daemon"
DIRECTORY="/hdd/transmission"
RPC_PORT=9091
DOWNLOAD_DIR="/hdd/transmission/download"
CONFIG_DIR="/hdd/transmission/config"
WATCH_DIR="/hdd/transmission/watch"
USER="root"
PASSWORD="dreambox"
ARGS="-c $WATCH_DIR -g $CONFIG_DIR -a *.*.*.* -w $DOWNLOAD_DIR -p $RPC_PORT -t -u $USER -v $PASSWORD"
INET_ADDR=`awk '/address/{print$2}' /etc/network/interfaces`
PATH=/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
TRANSMISSION_WEB_HOME="/usr/share/transmission/web/"

After I start the transmission it only says:

SPARK:~# /etc/init.d/transmissiond start
starting transmission-daemon...

--------------------------------------
Transmission Started !!!
Open your browser at http://:9091
--------------------------------------

But I cannot access transmission web interface by entering 192.168.1.*:9091
Tried differente browser, tried changing ports and forwarding, without firewall, tried reinstall and restart transmission, but still the same "Unable to connect"

Is there a way to solve this problem?
Does anyone else have had this problem and solved it?

Thank you for your help!

Hi x190

the adress http://localhost:9091/transmission/web/ doesn't work either. Unable to connect

I have tried to enable logging on transmission but no luck
If I try to enter any of the commands from man page it gives me the same result:
SPARK:~# transmission-daemon --log-info
/usr/bin/transmission-daemon: line 1:EL▒▒@4▒P4: not found
/usr/bin/transmission-daemon: line 6: syntax error: unexpected "(" (expecting ")")

More ideas?

Hello igniussako,

Do you know that there is amazingly good Transmission Remote GUI? It is just like uTorrent, but without the ads, apps, and all other s***s which ruined uTorrent.

I am running Transmission daemon 2.83 on DreamBox under Enigma 1,6 and my only problem is that Transmission doesn't autostart properly. Do you experience the same problem?

EDIT:
By the way, I have the feeling that your problem is conflict between the Transmission's web interface, and your Satellite Box's web interface. (They are on the same LAN address and using different ports is somehow "clumsy"...)
I had the same problem with my DreamBox . Try the full URL in your browser: http://192.168.1.***:9091/transmission/web/
It works for me.
