I can't seem to get transmission to boot up at start up. I read that I just needed to put "transmission -m" as the command in the start up window, but that doesn't seem to be working and I have no idea where the actual file resides to point to it
View 6 RepliesI've a big problem with Transmission on Ubuntu. The transmission application can't start.
I have do this
System -> Amministration -> System Monitor
I can see that "Transmission" is in sleeping. I've tryed to killed the application and restart it, but transmission back to sleeping time!
how I can do to restart transmission?
Ideally I would love to have a script that watches my Home/Dropbox/Attachments folder for any torrent files. When there is a torrent file in the Attachments folder it will launch Transmission if it is not up already.But if not I can do it this way tooBasically what I somewhat have now is I'm trying to use Dropbox to start Transmission when I want it to.I have this script running every 3 minutes in Ubuntu Tweak to watch for any scripts I want to run from my Dropbox/remote/commands folder. Whenever a script gets placed in the commands folder it runs it. Which is this
Code:
#!/bin/bash
REMOTEFOLD="${HOME}/Dropbox/remote"
[code]....
I usually add torrents to transmission through my iPhone. I have Transmission watch the 'Attachments' folder in my Dropbox. I also have Transmission auto add the torrent and delete the torrent file when done. Thing is if I don't have Transmission running when I add the torrent to my dropbox folder. Transmission doesn't start up to download the torrent. Is there a script that can watch for torrent files in my Dropbox folder that I can run in Scheduled Tasks to run every 5 min or so. Also when I have it up and running and I do have auto add on. It auto adds it to transmission but then the popup dialog appears to ask if I just want to download one of the files from the torrent or all 10. Is there a way to bypass this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like to be able to simply run a shortcut file or batch file in a windows os to start or stop my transmission-daemon.I was thinking about using putty to auto login and execute a file using the -m switch. A problem I am running into is that /etc/init.d/transmission-daemon stoprequires the use of sudo.That would require entering a password which would be automated and insecure or would require manually typing int he password.

I have been tying to update Transmission 1.75(9117) to the lasted version (transmission-1.92) but i can't seem to get the Synaptic Package Manager to find it. I have downloaded transmission-1.92 and extracted it on to the desktop but Synaptic Package Manager still can't find it.

Update
transmission-common
lightweight BitTorrent client (common files)
Description
Transmission is a simple BitTorrent client. It features a very simple, intuitive interface (gui and command-line) on top on an efficient, cross-platform back-end. This package contains the common files for the different transmission versions.
Changes
Changes for the versions:
1.75-0ubuntu2
1.75-0ubuntu2.2
Version 1.75-0ubuntu2.2:
* SECURITY UPDATE: fix arbitrary file overwrite via crafted torrent file
- debian/patches/CVE-2010-0012.patch: adjust metainfo.c to check for '../'
- CVE-2010-0012
So, I employed the update. Problem is, I do not see this as an installed application. TRANSMISSION is not listed in any submenu under the Applications menu OR Add/Remove.
Iam always downloading files using transmission bittorrent, the problem is my sister always keep pausing my all my downloads because it somehow slows her internet speed in her rooms computer, any way I can have a password prompted every time she pauses all my downloads in transmission?

View 9 Replies View RelatedWhen I try to open Transmission I get a message: "Couldn't open "/home/shai/.config/transmission/lock": Permission denied", and the only way to open it is by using gksudo.
I read on another thread that I need to delete that file, but the file doesn't exist.
What should I do?
I recently started using Transmission torrent client. I love it! The light weight and web interface feature is compelling. I am not able to figure out how to queue torrents.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've installed many different versions on Ubuntu, many different times and I've never had a problem with transmission... untill now. I just did a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.04 ( I was already previously using 10.04) and I updated and set up transmission but when I tested the port it said it was closed. This has never happened before.
I tried changing the port about 15 times but it says they are all closed. So I tried opening one..
Code:
sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 50970 -j ACCEPT
... but still nothing. I have no firewall running and everything else works fine. Transmission was working before, on the same ports, same version of transmission, and same version of Ubuntu. Nothing has changed.
UPDATE: Actually it's version 2.04 not 2.0, guess the site i followed was a little dated.
so i was a little hasty in upgrading Tranmission to version 2.0 and after a while i noticed that the new version is really slow especially for public torrents my question is; is it possible to downgrade to version 1.93?
i followed these command to install the new version.
Code:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:transmissionbt/ppa
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get upgrade
I am using ubuntu netbook edition 10.04 on acer aspire one. My wireless is working perfectly when I am surfing the net or downloading ..... videos however when I use transmission (bit torrent) it will download for awhile then my wireless will not work and yet it shows that it is connected...then I have to reconnect again then the torrent starts downloading for awhile usually 1-2 mins then the wireless will fail again.
An interesting point to note: When I connect the ethernet cable to my netbook, bit torrent download perfectly it only happens when i'm using wireless. It is annoying how I have to physically connect my netbook to the modem to download bit torrent files.
I ve got ubuntu 10.04 x64 server with transmision-daemon transmission-common installed(ive tried both from rep and from source code). torrent service is up:
PHP Code:[code].........
it was working good for about half a day, a can connect to it from WAN and now, when im home - i cant connet from LAN. It just didnt respond
I was able to do this once but ive forgotten how to.
Basically i want to copy and paste the metadata from tranmission onto a usb key-im about to reformat my installation and want to back up my metadata so i dont have to manually add all my unfinished torrents.
p { margin-bottom: 0.08in; }a:link { } Is it possible to use Transmission BitTorrent like limewire?
If so how? I am not familiar with terms like associated 'torrent file and 'tracker' websites'' The help files at the Transmission website assume a high level of preexisting knowledge. Is there a way to learn this program starting from scratch?
Giving me the message: Requested download is not authorized for use with this tracker. - idle'Vuze, when I start it, just closes before it even makes itself known!Can someone let me know of reliable torrent client with multi-tracker support, either deb install or easy to follow terminal instructions?

View 1 Replies View RelatedHow to make a private torrent on Transmission? Back when I was on windows I used to do it on utorrent. I remember that you had to put [URL] for the announce url. I figured it would be the same thing on Transmission, but it's not working. Did I skip something, or do something wrong? Or is there a whole different way to do it on Transmission? It's been a while since I've done this.

View 3 Replies View RelatedIs anyone else having trouble with frequent kernel panics whenever the Transmission bittorrent client is running? I get them after about 1-2 minutes of having transmission running, and need to do a hard reset. I didn't restart transmission this last time and it has been almost 10 minutes with no problems. I've been having problems left and right with KPs since around 8.04 but previously they were infrequent enough that it was still more convenient than using windows...Every 2 minutes is ridiculous though, if I can't fix it I'm going to need to get another torrent client!

View 1 Replies View RelatedIf I log out or shut down Ubuntu with Transmission still open, the next time I start Transmission it will verify the local data, which take a very long time because I have lots of torrents. Does anyone knows how I can prevent this without having to explicitly close Transmission every time?
If I explicitly close Transmission before shutting down Ubuntu, it works fine.
I'm using Ubuntu and 9.10 (Karmic Koala) and Transmission 1.75
second torrent of this list of torrents i have downloaded.It has more Seeds [URL]... but look my Transmission is not downloading [URL]...
View 2 Replies View RelatedToday I noticed, that despite a 1kb/s limit upload being set i was seeding at an unlimited bandwidth, it had been running for 3 hours wasting about 300mb.
I had never seen this before, however 10gb mysteriously disappeared from my 25 quota last month as i dont mind seeding things at 1kb to help people get the missing bits. My 25gb costs me $100 with the larger package being $160 so i dont have much choice but to be stingy.
Any option?Only thing i saw for shutdown for Transmission, was for Mac, none for Linux.
