Location of stats.json

Post by ambipur »

Hi Transmission fans!

I have used formerly Transmission on an Asus WL500gP router. It is bricked now, I don't want to use it any more, but the hard drive of it is OK. So I have the stats.json file from it.

Now I have installed transmission daemon to a PC with Ubuntu Server 10.10 . Where should I copy exactly the old stats.json to see the old statistics? Let me know if you know the anser. Thanks!

Transmission must be closed before moving stats.json. The location of it should be in the root of Transmission's config directory.

Code: Select all

$ ls -1 ~/.config/transmission/
blocklists
dht.dat
resume
settings.json
stats.json  <--
torrents

As an aside -- even if you lose stats.json it's not the end of the world. Transmission reports stats to your trackers, and also stores a local copy for you to see. stats.json is the latter... even if you lose it your trackers will still remember you.
