Transmission

[marcel]

Can anyone tell me were the config file from transmission is and how I edit this file? I think I'am looking for the file "settings.json"(I've searched). Other thing when I open transmission in the browser I'll get: http://transmision/transmision/ is this normal? Next question Transmission doesn't auto import files. I've setup the folder /hda/torrents any idea?.

[cpg]

try /root/.config/transmission-daemon/settings.json

That folder doesn't exist... at least the way it's described in the post.

anyone else have the location?

Login as root and then navigate to the location via:

Code: Select all

cd .config/transmission-daemon/

And cat settings.json. Or use vi or Nano to edit:

Code: Select all

<vi or nano here> .config/transmission-daemon/settings.json

solution:

see the last post of this bug report.

It's good to finally have a config file

That leaves me one last thing to solve... I would like to keep my torrents in an external drive, say '/media/EHD'. When I change the config file to point to '/media/EHD/torrents', transmission can correctly find it and start downloading. However, when I restart the server, transmission daemon acts quickly to check this location, cannot find this folder (as auto mount has not kicked-in yet), and then simply creates it. Because the folder name is taken, the auto mount utility mounts the HD to '/media/EHD_' instead... I end up with '/media/EHD' and '/media/EHD_' (!!!)

Is there a way to prioritize the init scripts, to make sure that Transmission daemon is initiated only after the drives are mounted?

Thanks!

(update: I could implement this functionality by placing a conditional in transmission's init script, which checks for the existence of the folder in a loop and continue only after it finds it. But I am sure there is a more elegant solution!)

Uh... Just saw this one:
