permission denied

hi
i have some issues using transmission-daemon.
here some facts about my system:
ubuntu server 8.10
transmission 1.42 from this repo deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/transmissionbt/ubuntu intrepid main
then i followed this howto http://trac.transmissionbt.com/wiki/Scripts/initd
but when i try to download a torrent, transmission always complains about a permission denied error.
it seems that transmission is using the root folder / as download folder.
editing the download folder var in /home/transmission/.config/transmission-daemon/settings.json does not help.
here my settings.json
any hints ?
thank you,
herrt
