Accidentally deleted torrent and now I cannot seed it anymore
How can I restart seeding a torrent after I accidentally deleted it from Transmission? Is it possible? The file is still safe and sound in my disk, I just can't seed it anymore.
Re: Accidentally deleted torrent and now I cannot seed it anymore
Hi,
I'm moving files from transmission from a local xubuntu desktop, to a seedbox using transmission daemon.
I successfully added a downloaded torrent to the seedbox, here is what I did, that may help you:
Copy the torrent to the new download-dir:
The local download-dir is: $HOME/Téléchargements/
The download-dir on the seedbox is: /media/downloads/
The 2020-02-13-raspbian-buster-lite.zip was finished successfully on the local xubuntu desktop.
The .torrent was still on the local xubuntu in ~/.config/transmission/torrents
So adding the .torrent to the transmission daemon do the move.
It will verify data and start seeding from here.
I added the .torrent from command line, having configured my access restriction and password accordingly:
It also works from the web remote interface with uploading my local .torrent file or pasting a torrent Link.
If you miss the .torrent you may be able to re-download it from the original source.
You may use your browser history to recover it.
Hope that helps.
Regards.
