Where does daemon load torrents from?

Post by chorlya »

Hi all,

I am wondering where should daemon look for torrent files, by design? Any clues as to weather what I'm describing below is a bug or expected behavior would be appreciated.

I have Mac client (1.4x) and daemon (compiled from 1.50b1 sources) installed on my Mac. When starting daemon it sometimes picks up all torrents from Mac app as well as keeping its torrents. This is not what I expected nor desired, so I stop the daemon and manually delete .torrent files from ~/Library/Application\ Support/transmission-daemon/(Torrents|Resume)/ and when I start the daemon again it usually doesn't pickup the torrents from Mac app, but sometimes it does. Unfortunately I can't figure out what triggers the daemon to pickup Mac app torrents.

I was expecting that daemon will start with no torrents and wait for me to add them via RPC (web interface in my case).

I'll try updating to 1.50b5 as soon as I can, but I'm just wondering if Mac app and daemon are designed to co exists on same system or not?

Thanks

Hello, this is my first post, so i hope, you help me :wink: .
I have issue like this. But I have OpenWRT 8.09.1, transmission-daemon 1.34, and if I start it manualy, everything works fine. But if I write the same command into /etc/init.d script, it starts but dont load torrents. Files in resume and torrents folders are ok.
thx

Hi there and welcome. I would like to help you, but I don't know what is the solution to your problem.
Since your problem is not directly related to the one I described above, it would probably be better if you start a new topic in this forum with a name that better describes your problem. And make sure you include your platform in topic name, as that will make it more obvious to other users, that might be able to help you.

Good luck and best regards.
