Hello transmission users!

I am running lighttpd webserver on a headless Ubuntu server. The document root is set to /home/www . I have copied the webinterface files to /home/www/asm/transmission/web . I have tried setting TRANSMISSION_WEB_HOME="/home/www/asm/transmission/web" in /etc/init.d/transmission-daemon script.

Entering my.domain/asm/transmission/web in the browser the webinterface appears but cannot connect to the daemon. What is missing? Thanks in advance!

First, you don't actually NEED lighttpd. Second, if you do use lighttpd, you need to configure it.
With default settings, can you get to transmission on port 9091? If not, there might be a problem with your transmission configuration. If you can reach it then you need to activate the proxy module in lighttpd and add something like this to the proper configuration file:

Code: Select all

$HTTP["url"] =~ "^/transmission/" {
        proxy.server = ( "" => ( (
                "host" => "127.0.0.1",
                "port" => 9091
        ) ) )
}
