Hello,

I've installed transmission on Debian Lenny headless. I'm trying to setup the WebUI, but cannot find the configuration files. I've tried to look https://trac.transmissionbt.com/wiki/UnixServer/Debian, but thos paths do not match. I see transmission-daemon in processes. I think it is binded to local address only right now. Sorry for bringing up if again, just there are so many threads.

Have you searched for it?

Code: Select all

locate settings.json || find / -name "settings.json"

Code: Select all

user@mydomain:~$ sudo find / -name "settings.json"
user@mydomain:~$
This is all I get. I installed it using apt-get

doing "apt-get install" in a pure Lenny system will bring in TR 1.22 .. a really ancient and dated version. i don't think it even uses a settings.json file.

you could consider installing from lenny-backports and getting TR 1.77, which does use settings.json and includes debian start-up scripts.

just for info the latest release is TR 2.12

You're right. settings.json was introduced in either 1.3x or 1.4x, I can't remember which.

1.22 is insanely old.
