WebUI does not connect to transmission
Posted: Thu Mar 15, 2018 10:51 am
Hi there everyone,
I have a very weird problem, i have transmission installed on my raspberry pi. I have enabled the web interface and can access it over the internet. However when i add torrents via the web interface the torrents are all stuck on the 'downloading metadata' step, nothing happens. When i then try to check if the torrents are added to transmission on the GUI in a virtual desktop, i see that the torrents are not added there. When I add a torrent to transmission on the GUI on my desktop the torrent is added and it starts to download. If i then check back in the webUI I cant see the torrents there.
So apparently there is no connection between the webUI and my transmission GUI on the raspberry pi. The weird thing is that I do see a transmission interface and can even add torrents, to there is traffic going but no user-specific data such as torrent files.
I have forwarded both ports in my router for transmission, port 9091 for the web interface and a different port for the traffic.
One thing that does strike me that the settings i make in the json file using SSH don't seem to reflect the setting i make in the GUI of transmission. Shouldn't these two be connected? Even after a full reboot the files do not seem to match.
Additionally, transmission GUI always sais that my traffic port is blocked, which could also be a sign in the direction of the answer possibly.
Can anyone please help me figure out what the problem is ?
Thank you in advance.
