Transmission 1.30 crashing

Post by 4WRD »

Transmission usually works great for me and I would rather use it over other apps.
But I am now having a reoccuring issue that is starting to just piss me off - Transmission quits on its on with no alerts, sometimes the app even locks up prior to quitting.

I am running Transmission 1.0, running OS X 10.4.11, I have already repaired my permissions, and Software Update is up to date.

So what's the deal? why the quitting all of a sudden?

Ive tried upgrading also but ever version from 1.0 - 1.54 pretty much does this.

Thanks.

I also have this just in the console.log of the console app.

Code: Select all

2009-07-20 00:37:44.714 Transmission[945] Could not find image named 'NSActionTemplate'.

Is this: "/Users/mitchell/" normal.
mitchell is not my username and never has been.

I am noticing a trend in these crashes. Since transmission is crashing when I reopen it all the torrents have to have their existing data checked ~ it usually crashes after checking a certain one.

Ill keep nosing around to get you all as much info as possible.

Again, thanks for any help.

You are running 1.30, which is an old, unsupported version. Please update to the latest for your operating system: 1.54.
