Ubuntu :: Transmission Web Interface Only Available When Transmission Client Is Running
Dec 5, 2010
I can only access the Transmission web interface while the Transmission-gtk client is running. When I close it, the web interface is no longer available. I try to manually start the transmission-daemon, but the process never shows up as running.
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 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.
I've installed transmission-daemon on my headless Ubuntu 11.04 server and use the web interface to manage it. This is all working fine. However, after a reboot it seems that transmission daemon starts but the webinterface is unavailable. I get this in the syslog after a reboot:
Code: Jun 22 10:54:27 localhost transmission-daemon[703]: Transmission 2.31 (12441) started (session.c:706) Jun 22 10:54:27 localhost transmission-daemon[703]: RPC Server Adding address to whitelist: 192.168.*.* (rpc-server.c:805) Jun 22 10:54:27 localhost transmission-daemon[703]: RPC Server Serving RPC and Web requests on port 127.0.0.1:9091/transmission/ (rpc-server.c:982) Jun 22 10:54:27 localhost transmission-daemon[703]: RPC Server Whitelist enabled (rpc-server.c:986) Jun 22 10:54:27 localhost transmission-daemon[703]: RPC Server Password required (rpc-server.c:989) Jun 22 10:54:27 localhost transmission-daemon[703]: Port Forwarding Stopped (port-forwarding.c:181) Jun 22 10:54:27 localhost transmission-daemon[703]: UDP Failed to set receive buffer: requested 4194304, got 262142 (tr-udp.c:75) .....
I am using ubuntu 11.04. I want to know that how can I set proxy settings for Transmission bittorrent client?I fill the settings in network proxy but it won't work for bittorrent.
have a computer working 24/7, although a reboot procedure was performed and now I've no way to get transmission running, since I have no physical access to the machine.The only way I can access is throw ssh.Does any one knows any way of get it started?
I have Ubuntu installed, using transmission client to download a torrent.The torrent is coming down at ~300kbps, but my internet connection speedtests @ 50mbps...how do I configure connection to utilize connection?
Transmission bittorrent client on my computer doesn't seem to download any files...It just struks on 'downloading file'...When i checked out the preferences it says 'port closed', i'm using port no 18768....Torrents download fine with opera with the same port no...
I have quite fast Internet connection, 100mbit, and I'm able to take advantage of the entire bandwidth that I'm paying for. When I, however, use Transmission as torrent client and download a torrent faster than, 7-8 Mbyte/second, my hard drive is spinning all the time and my desktop becomes sporadically unresponsive, load average gets high and I'm pretty much sure the Transmission-application is the cause to this, somehow. It must be some strange way it cashes stuff...I don't know.
I'm, either way, not experiencing anything like that with any other torrent client in Linux (or Windows for that matter). It's not that I'm tied to Transmission, in fact, I prefer rtorrent and use it anytime I can, it's just that some stupid torrent sites are giving me Transmission as the only client option when I'm using Linux, so I have to stick to it those times. I have quite fast system, Core Duo 3ghz, 4gb ram, 500 gb 7200rpm 16MB cache WD hard drive, etc...so the hardware certainly shouldn't be a problem.
I want to start off by saying I'm very new to Ubuntu. I have been using Ubuntu for about a week now and have not looked back!! Now on to my issue. 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.
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
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?
When 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.
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.
I'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..
... 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.
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.
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
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?
How 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.
I'm trying to install the new version of transmission on a 9.04 machine. I have never messed with my sources.lst file, but it looks like I will need to in order to get things working properly. How can I do this?
Is 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!
