Thank you in advance for your time and knowledge.

Thank you for the timely reply.

There is only one router in my network and my OS X firewall is entirely disabled.

Any other possibilities?

[Bad Sir Ivan]

Ahhhh..... Forgot about LS. I don't hear from it much. In fact, it isn't giving me any grief about Transmission.

I have not tried manually PF'ing. Haven't needed to for the past year and a half that I've been using Transmission... or the past several months that I've been using LS...

I may also need to mention that Transmission has started crashing randomly within the past few days. I had recently moved some downloaded files and changed default file placements, also. Now that I think about it, this is pretty much when all the trouble started. Sorry for not mentioning this sooner. It just came to mind.

Relevant?

Hi

When debug with Automatically map port
and port is close

2011-09-03 14:38:41 -0300 net.c:373 [Debug] Transmission: Bound socket 12 to port 61131 on 0.0.0.0
2011-09-03 14:38:41 -0300 net.c:373 [Debug] Transmission: Bound socket 13 to port 61131 on ::

help me!

Thanks

Okay.... Maybe I am wrongly assuming that the port being closed is the cause of the problem instead of just a symptom.

When I try to download, Transmission goes through the process of finding peers and then it actually appears to begin the download, i.e., progress bar moves, MB count and percentage increases, etc., - but a little after 1% into it, the download stops and produces an error which reads "Error: No such file or directory (/Users/etc.)". Sometimes Transmission crashes after the download stops. No downloaded data is found in my download folder.

By any chance, does this shed a different light on the subject?

[Bad Sir Ivan]

Solved everything!... although peer searches do seem to take quite a bit longer.... and it downloads unchecked files again... but....

Thanks, x190... YOU ROCK!!! *power chord on 11*

leopardoxico: Please give us more info about your network and post a log like the first one in this thread. Also, carefully read through the material in Transmission's Help files.

OK
my network is a DHCP connection of 15 Mbps and router d-lin DIR 600

Thanks!

Have you tried to manually portforward your router? Have you allowed Transmission in your OS X Firewall? Do you use third party firewalls like L'il Snitch, etc.?

Dear all,

I was hoping you could help me with a port forwarding problem that I can't seem to be able to solve. I'm running OS X 10.7 and my router is a D-Link DIR-825.

Initially Transmission was telling me the port was closed, so I went to my router and set an open port just as portforward.com had indicated for my specific router. Now when I run the log I get:

2011-09-09 13:26:28 +0000 port-forwarding.c:181 [Info] Port Forwarding: Stopped
2011-09-09 13:26:28 +0000 upnp.c:169 [Info] Port Forwarding (UPnP): Stopping port forwarding through "http://192.168.0.1:65535/ctl/IPConn", service "urn:schemas-upnp-org:service:WANIPConnection:1"

2011-09-09 13:26:29 +0000 port-forwarding.c:93 [Info] Port Forwarding: State changed from "Not forwarded" to "Forwarded"

However, a couple of seconds later I get the same red-button "port is closed" notice. The Mac Network Utility tells me that the port I designated is open, but most tellingly canyouseeme.org says the port is still blocked.

I've tried switching from DHCP to DHCP with a manual address (I can't get a simple manual address to work) in the TCP/ICP settings, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. I've read that it might involve putting my router into "bridge mode", but I'm not even sure my router does that/has that problem.

I'm not very experienced in all this but I'm trying my best. Any thoughts? Any help?

Thank you!

I'm facing the same problem... I think it's prob Transmission servers is blocked for some reasons! I couldnt even get to download all my files... All froze!
