Transmission add-on crashing on ReadyNas Duo

[JarnoG]

I'm out of options, maybe someone else has a few more suggestions. It seems to me that there's a problem with only a few of the torrents you created while most is working just fine. If it is not to much of a problem, you could just stop seeding those few torrents.

Thanks JarnoG for all your help. I edited my previous post. You may have missed those comments.

I'm back to 2.22. I like the features of 2.42, and I'd like to be able to use it. But it's far too buggy for me. I may try 2.5 when it's available for the Duo. Maybe they'll have resolved some of these weird problems.

I hadn't read your edits and I wouldn't know why 2.42 would have a problem with those filenames if 2.22 doesn't... Anyway, I'm glad that it's solved

Hi everybody

Just read all the thread because I have the same problem with Transmission 2.42.

Everything began fine : installation was OK, using web interface was ok, and I downloaded few files.
But regularly, i have a "Connection failed" error message and the service stops (green light turns to gray).

My question is : does 2.22 supports magnet url to set the torrent file ?

Hi see this post

I've put up my settings file. No issues with 2.42.

Sometimes I feel I is a real noob, but how should I edit the \\IpOfNAS\addons-config\Transmission\transmission-daemon\settings.json ?
Should I logon vid SSH, and then go to that directory. But then...

vi settings.json
and have a look on http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vi
Welcome on Unix system.......

you can just edit the settings.json file via whatever protocol you like using a text editor that supports unix-files. I use Notepad++ and edit the file over CIFS.

If you don't see the addons-config share, you can create a share for it and set permissions for whatever user you like. This might give Transmission permission-problems though. You can also find the directory on the c. You will have to log in (using CIFS) as admin and go to \\ipofnas\c\addons-config\Transmission\transmission-daemon\ to find the settings.json file.

The first option lets you edit the file without having to log in as admin, but might give permission problems for Transmission. You don't have that problem with the last option, but you will have to log in as admin

[frarev]

Good idea, but how do you create a share on c or addons-config ?

[mdgm]

The share is automatically created when you install the Transmission add-on for Sparc or x86.

Do you have the Duo v1 or the Duo v2?

[frarev]

Exact and ok for addons-config (i just saw it has been created), but for c ?
I have old Duo v1

[mdgm]

The "C" share is for the C volume and is accessed when you login to CIFS (i.e. \\ip.address.of.nas) as "admin" (the Frontview user).

[bruse]

That's was "plättlätt" (a piece of cake).

Next question: how can I change the default admin-password?

[JarnoG]

When you're logged into Frontview, go to the menu item "Security" then click "Admin Password"
