Hi,
It looks like I have everything configured except the web gui. Everything is working ok, but when I go to web gui it fails saying It can't find index.html.
I looked at all other ports and here is what I Tried:
1- I removed transmission-daemon and installed again, still same.
2- I cannot find where index.html is for transmission. I did locate transmission/web, I looked for all index.html but nothing related to transmission.
3- I really believe I just don't have teh web directory anywhere.
How do I Get the web dir? Shoudln't it be with Transmission-daemon?
I am on ubuntu 10.04 (lucid).
I think, the source I am getting from is:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/andreas-noteng ... ion/ubuntu
as it gives me 2.42 for lucid, I couldn't a better source for lucid.
Any help?
Thanks,

Re: Can't find gui files
no, you also need transmission-clissss25 wrote:How do I Get the web dir? Shoudln't it be with Transmission-daemon?
$ apt-get install transmission-cli transmission-common
that will give you transmission-remote, tools, and the common files (transmission-common) for the web interface

Re: Can't find gui files
i took a look at the the contents of transmission-common_2.42-0ubuntu0.10.04.2_all.deb from your link
http://ppa.launchpad.net/andreas-noteng ... nsmission/
and you're right it's missing the web interface files
this looks like a packaging error. there's nothing in there but a few READMEs and changelog, also the size is much smaller than the other transmission-common packages.
by comparison transmission-common_2.42-0ubuntu0.11.10.1_all.deb (at same link) has it all:

Re: Can't find gui files
Hmm. Thanks for the info gunzip. I had difficulty finding a source for ubuntu 10.04 which has a relatively recent release..
Any ideas for a different source? Or is there I can get a pkg to install manually that would work on Lucid? I just don't know how to compile myself.
Thanks,

i don't run Ubuntu but i see Lucid is a 2-year old release so it's not surprising getting a recent Transmission version would be a problem. As a workaround you could try getting the web files from the other .deb and manually copying the files over. Normally this is not good practice but since transmission-common has no binaries it might work:
Code: Select all
wget "http://ppa.launchpad.net/andreas-noteng/transmission/ubuntu/pool/main/t/transmission/transmission-common_2.42-0ubuntu0.11.10.1_all.deb"
dpkg --extract transmission-common_2.42-0ubuntu0.11.10.1_all.deb ./
sudo cp -r ./usr/share/transmission/web/ /usr/share/transmission/
Re: Can't find gui files
Thanks for the info.
I did what you suggested, I still get the error:
I then did "set | grep TRANSMISSION_WEB_HOME"
I didn't see any TRANSMISSION_WEB_HOME
I tried:
but that didn't help.
How do I know where is transmission looking for the web files?
What permissions and owner? Is it the same userI have setup in the transmission-daemon script?
Thanks

Users: to tell Transmission where to look, set the TRANSMISSION_WEB_HOME environment variable to the folder where the web interface's index.html is located.
Package Builders: to set a custom default at compile time, #define PACKAGE_DATA_DIR in libtransmission/platform.c or tweak tr_getClutchDir() by hand.
