Can't connect to WEB GUI nor transmission-remote-cli

Post by nasanicet »

Hello,

I have been struglling for so long that i had to now crying out for help. I have a hosted Sandbox on which i have installed Debian 7.5. I then installed the client transmission-daemon in the system. Then edit the settings.json configuration files so suit my needs. I have never been able to get it to work. By that i mean that i have'nt been able to access the Web GUI interface nor the transmission-remote-cli from the console. Here below my settings.json(which i checked on json online parser for error checking):

{

The package should be the latest as i got them like this apt-get install transmission-deamon so for me it should be it.
Where can I get you to check the logs? Can you help figure out where you need me to check the log form?

Thanks again

Correction, you have the latest version that the Debian maintainers considered stable at the time they put together that version, and checking their package listing gives you version 2.52, when 2.83 is actually the latest release from Transmission.

Ok thanks for your time!

I think i'm going to give Ubuntu a shoot as on Debian, even with your advice i could get my head straight on how to solve the problem. Since Ubuntu seems to be less painful to manage transmission on, i'll go for it.

Sorry for having wasting your time with my ignorance.

BTW,I don't think your white list is valid.

If you want to use a wildcard, it looks like only 1 '*' is required, not *.*.*.*.

Either that or 0.0.0.0 also might work.
