transmission-remote

Post by okccowboy »

I have been trying to run a script from the transmission wiki. I notice that it calls transmission-remote, but I don't seem to have it on my system. I am running the latest Max OSX.

I am trying to auto delete completed downloads.

Any help would be appreciated.

OK, well I figured this one out. Now does anyone know how to keep the daemon from uploading at all? I really don't want to get nasty grams from my ISP again.

Thanks

OK, one more problem...lets see if anyone answers this one.

I have been trying to run the following script:

#!/bin/sh
{

/Applications/transmission-remote -n user:password -t $TR_TORRENT_ID –-remove

} &

I can run the "/Applications/transmission-remote -n user:password -t $TR_TORRENT_ID –-remove" from the command line (replacing the TR_TORRENT_ID with a number) and it works. Trying to run it as a script doesn't seem to work. I can also run the script replacing TR_TORRENT_ID with a number and it also works.

Any ideas as to what is going on? I have already run chmod with 777 and the settings are rwxrwxrwx

Looks like it ought to work. Maybe try adding code to the script to write the environment variables (TR_TORRENT_ID, TR_TORRENT_HASH, etc) to a file somwhere so that you can look them over to see if there's a problem there.
