Transmission

Hi,

I'm setting up transmission for the first time on a CentOS 5 linux server, and i'm having problems to get the config working.
The whole idea is to have a headless server that i can control through the webinterface on my laptop.
For a strange reason the server seems not to accept my config file.

/etc/password
transmission101:157:transmission daemon account:/var/lib/transmission:/sbin/nologin

So i have a this config file:
/var/lib/transmission/.config/transmission-daemon/settings.json

{
"download-dir": "/Downloads",
"encryption": 1,
"incomplete-dir": "/Downloads",
"incomplete-dir-enabled": false,
"rpc-authentication-required": false,
"rpc-bind-address": "0.0.0.0",
"rpc-enabled": true,
"rpc-password": "{4894dfb3c179eaaf9dc6bea6378847deae8d0617QslvcmeF",
"rpc-port": 9091,
"rpc-url": "/transmission/",
"rpc-username": "",
"rpc-whitelist": "172.16.1.*",
"rpc-whitelist-enabled": true,
}

When the download start i always get an error because the download directory does not exists.
Download Dir: /var/lib/transmission/Download

All the files and directories are owend by transmission.

Thx

Check the start-up script, does it set the download directory? (i.e. parameter -w, or long parameter --download-dir).

Any good start-up script will do that, using the parameters in /etc/conf.d/transmission, but I don't use CentOS so I don't really know.
