Upgraded and working...

Thank you, Oleo and transmission guys.

Upgraded and working...

Working what?

Working what?

Sorry for my English. Transmission's working like a charm

[dzontra]

For 0.9x number of threads is 4. For 0.8x this depends on number of torrents.

Hmm. I'm having 3 threads using 0.9x, regardless number of torrents or their status. Do I need to tweak something or...?

13921 admin      6236 S   transmissiond -p 65534 -w 300 -u -1 -d -1 -i /opt/var
13924 admin      6236 S   transmissiond -p 65534 -w 300 -u -1 -d -1 -i /opt/var
13925 admin      6236 S   transmissiond -p 65534 -w 300 -u -1 -d -1 -i /opt/var

3 theads is correct.

I reinstalled my whole router and installed transmission but it won't start the webinterface but is running on the router:

admin 203 1 0 17:09 ? 00:00:00 transmissiond -p 65534 -w 300 -u -1 -d -1 -i /opt/var/run/transmission.pid /tmp/harddisk/torr
admin 206 203 0 17:09 ? 00:00:00 transmissiond -p 65534 -w 300 -u -1 -d -1 -i /opt/var/run/transmission.pid /tmp/harddisk/torr
admin 207 206 0 17:09 ? 00:00:00 transmissiond -p 65534 -w 300 -u -1 -d -1 -i /opt/var/run/transmission.pid /tmp/harddisk/torr

There seems to be no network issue since I can't connect to it even on the router:

[admin@(none) root]$ telnet localhost 8008
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host (127.0.0.1): Connection refused

You sure it listens to the right interface? Try "netstat -plnt".

[Zapt]

Here the NEW netstat...

[admin@(none) root]$ netstat -tln

It's not really helping if you don't pass those arguments I've told you about (-ptln). If you haven't installed Oleg's netstat then try without the "p", just -tln.

[Zapt]

Here's the new response (see above)

[wirespot]

OK, I see what's going on. You seem to have confused transmission and its web interface. Transmission is running, as you see transmissiond running and it listens on port 65534, as you can see in netstat. But you still need to run a webserver and use the CGI interface to transmission. Transmissiond is the client, but without the web interface to control it, it doesn't do anything, just sits there.

[Zapt]

So what do I need to do? I thought that the webinterface was already running...

[wirespot]

Well apparently not. Look around here in the tutorial section, there should be at least a couple of good ones for the complete setup.

[Zapt]

Well thanks for this nonsense answer...
I did everything like the tutorial of wengi said...

Is the 2GB file size limit problem solved?
