I`m sorry for opening so many threads, but I always get into troubles with transmission :(
now the problem is "Unable to find recent transfer stats in syslog" when I press update button..
Torrents seems to work since I can see that on private tracker control panel...
what to do now? :confused:

Did you run syslog daemon?
/opt/etc/init.d/S05syslogd start
I got this message
[admin@WL-001E8C3E0A8F root]$ /opt/etc/init.d/S05syslogd start
Stopping syslogd: syslogd.
Starting syslogd: /tmp/messages.log: input file is output file
syslogd.

I get that as well, not sure if it's a problem...
try this
nano /opt/etc/transmission.conf
and change SYSLOG=/opt/var/messages to this: SYSLOG=/tmp/syslog.log
thx for help, but it is still the same...:(
torrents work ok.. but it is nice when you have some stats to see...
hope it`ll be better in the next version...

I've had this problem too after installing 1.9.2.7-10 and following wengi's new tutorial.
I've solved it by setting loglevel=7 in S05syslogd:
OPTIONS="-m 0 -O $LOG_NEW/$LOGFILE -S -l 7 -s 0"
and now I have statistics data for transmission.
great man
it works now :) :)

Is it true that transmission is slower than other torrent clients??
I get this message just above the Update and other buttons:
"opt/share/www/cgi-bin/transmission.cgi: /opt/share/www/cgi-bin/transmission.cgi: 3: /opt/share/www: Permission denied Content-type: text/html "
Also is it possible to change the default transmission port from 8008 tosomething else
But yet everything works fine. Just wondering what that means or doing. Thanks in advance
Maybe it was in the past, but nowadays it runs with good speed on the wl500gp. average somewhere between (100 - 400 KB/Sec)
Personally i am running it with clutch, which in my opinion works more reliable than transmission cgi and is easy to administer.
The drawback of clutch is that you need to have webserver and php running which puts more load on the wl500gp.
I was able o fix it thank I just reinstalled transmission
Hi everybody,
I have been using transmission successfully according to the setup of wengi, everything works great with the newest firmware. However, when downloading a torrentof course this takes some (or sometimes considerably) bandwith, so then it is convenient to pause transmission. A shame when I find out the next day that I have forgotten to unpause it, so it has been standing still for the night. I think it should be possible for example, to let cron switch it on again, say at midnight. Has anyone any idea how to program this, what is the command that should be used? Or is there any other way to accomplish this?
Best regards,
Ecori:)
Just add a cron job to remove the .paused file.
Hi Oleo,
Thanks for your reply, I hoped you may answer:p
Could you explain me how to do that in cron, I am not familiar with linux, but can copy the commands and learn alot from you:D
Thanks again,
Ecori
Something like:
# m h dom mon dow command
12 23 * * * /bin/rm /tmp/harddisk/torrent/work/.paused

Hey. I can not delete the torrents dl with transmission
I need admin rights
I have wl-500w with oleg fw ver. -10.

Do i have to setup user or what to get admin rights?
when i open dl folder in my computer i cant delete the files i have dl
please help
Thanks Oleo!
I 'll give it a try! ;)

Hi,
i guess you are trying to use samba (windows network) to delete the files.
Is it the original samba from firmware or ipkg?
Background: transmission is running as admin (root). So you need admin rights to delete the files. If your samba is NOT using admin as guest account you found the reason...

For some reason my uploads are uploading for an hr and then they die. I check my status on torrent site and it shows that i am not even seeding to them. And on transmission its says seeding but at 0kb/s. However they will be like 4 leechers so i should be seeding any reason y. thanks
I've noticed this behaviour and found out that the problem lies in latest libcurl. See ticket 1010 (http://trac.transmissionbt.com/ticket/1010) for more details. Nobody complained till now, so I've tought that the problem was "worksforme kind". It helps downgrading to previous libcurl.
What firmware are you using?
same problem here. I used "ipkg update&upgrade". Firmware is 1.9.2.7-8.
After that upload is 0kb, then starts later with very poor rate.
In my case, ratio matters, so :( back to windows until resolved.
regards
Hi,
I have some errors after installing transmission, see: http://wl500g.info/showpost.php?p=101509&postcount=303.
It is a new transmission ver that may cause those errors or It could be something else?
i have a different kind of problem. when i have few torrents in line in transmission sometimes i get this message on status column although the torrent is well seeded.
" Progress: 0.00 %, 0 peers, dl from 0 (0.00 KB/s), ul to 0 (0.00 KB/s) Start: 22 Jun 16:04 uploaded: 0.0 MB "
sometimes it works after transmission_watchdog is run again, and sometimes it remains stuck. if i bypass the torrent and go to the next it seems to work for both torrents.
i seem to be getting this behaviour with some previous versions also.

Could you post your transmission.conf, and tell me what version do you have?
This and that error is solved with patch to libcurl (http://trac.nslu2-linux.org/optware/changeset/8555) and upgrade of transmission to latest revision (http://trac.nslu2-linux.org/optware/changeset/8556)
It was a problem in connect timeout and
that latest curl configured
#define HAVE_CLOCK_GETTIME_MONOTONIC 1
in config.h although this code seems that does not work on uClibc and possibly on other systems.
For now this patch is applied for uClibc only!
Transmission was for no reason downgraded to 1.22 and that left out transmissiond.
Let's hope that this version will work for all and I will not upgrade transmission for some time unless necessary.
So for all users the recommeded procedure is
ipkg update && ipkg upgrade
i have now upgraded to transmission_1.22+r6245-1. let`s hope that my issue is resolved with this version
Let's hope that this version will work for all and I will not upgrade transmission for some time unless necessary.

ipkg update && ipkg upgrade
I must break my promise to accomodate clutch users that only works with transmission 1.22 and not any version later. I've downgraded transmission package with http://trac.nslu2-linux.org/optware/changeset/8566.
So if are you using CGI interface with transmission I do not recommend to downgrade transmission to 1.22.
If you are using clutch then downgrade is necessary to get it working.
Let's hope that Clutch people will upgrade their RPC protocol so we can get upcoming 0.30 without hassle.
Sorry for the delayed reply i have version 1.9.2.7-9 oleg. And a little confused I did downgrade and still same issue.

How do i make admin a guest acount??
Seems like when I have a torrent of a large size 4GB and over my speed just craps out for ALL torrents... When I push the large torrent to suspended my speed is back to normal for the other torrents... I usually have a load of 1.7...
is there any way that I can enable my uploads working?
I have latest transmission and still the same 0% upload.
Kind regards

You have set it to "-5" which is probably same as "-1" = unlimited...
Loose the negative sign and set it to "5":
UPLOAD_SPEED=5
Out of topic... upload limit of 5 kb/s? You are kidding right :)

I use transmission 1.22 on my wl-500gP(with latest Oleg fw), it work's perfectly except on larger torrents (15+Gb). Download speed drops to few kb/s, number of seeders is irrelevant (i tried torrents from 1 seeder to hundreds of seeders).
Is it simply hardware limitation(system load goes up to 2-3) or I can do something about it?
Hi,
i _guess_ this is because of the hardware limitations.
hopefully you have swap activated.
One more thing you can test is http://wl500g.info/showpost.php?p=102442&postcount=317
maybe this is just me, but after installing bash my torrents became faster.... subjective impression....
wengi
The problem with larger torrents above 40GB is oftenly a cause of excesive disk head movements and a lack of memory for its caching.

Alternatively use another conf as described in my howto.

Hi,

I want to change the transmission access port from 8008 to something else how do i do this. I tried to google but no definite results can anyone help me pls.
Another problem is I have the inbuilt ftp running and disabled anonymous logs on but however my brother is able to log on to FW in built ftp. Just to give you guys a better idea he is calgary im in thunderbay. I used someone else connection in thunderbay and was not able to log on as anonymous but he is some how able to connect to the ftp even after i disabled the anonymous log on in FW webpage any reasons.
ipkg update && ipkg upgrade
Hi,
regarding the transmission port: which webserver are you using?
If it is the default (busybox) you should have a look at /opt/etc/init.d/S80busybox_httpd.
Look for a line like "LISTENING_PORT=8008".
wengi
Yea I figured it out last night poking around in the folders for opt/etc/ init.d found it in there. I was wondering If I decide to use lighttfpd to is better because it has ssl. It was one of the tutorials in the post for more tricks and stuff. I just want to make the transmission website secure so other people can't access it from LAN.

Every time I hit "Log" button in the transmission web interface, I get different graph, but every time it's not the right one... e.g. graph shows that transmission was not running for a day, even if it was, or the graph shows values for 2 days ahead, or 2 days in the past... what's up with that?
Maybe troubles with date/time and ntpclient.

Try to add this to /usr/local/sbin/post-firewall where XXX is the portnumer.

I've had this problem too after installing 1.9.2.7-10 and following wengi's new tutorial.
I've solved it by setting loglevel=7 in S05syslogd:
OPTIONS="-m 0 -O $LOG_NEW/$LOGFILE -S -l 7 -s 0"
and now I have statistics data for transmission.
i'm having the same problem, as first poster in thread, bu i've checked that file and everything is like above
any thoughts ?

When i disable firewall, all is open. But it is unusable
Do a forum search for iptables.
You will find many threads dealing with opening ports and the right order of rules.

Hi oleo :rolleyes:
Building Transmission trunk now gives error. There was a change in platform.c so platform.c.patch doesn't work now. Could you please change the patch for us who like to build trunk.
As I understood the EZ SETUP button can be configured through /usr/local/sbin/ez-setup.
How can I pause / unpause transmission through a script?
is there a way to use the transmission webUI through https?
Yes, it is
You should install first lighttpd
After, fallow this :
http://wl500g.info/showpost.php?p=47181&postcount=8
thanks, but this guide is for the old transmission. I'm currently using 1.34, any help?
How can I pause the torrents?
Basically, should be the same
You only need to access transmission-daemon webpage from WAN, trough lighttpd. The same story with ADOS, you can access trough https (lighttpd_ssl)
Try to find on your HDD where is situated the webpage for transmission-daemon. If it is on /opt/share/www/ it's OK, you can easylly fallow the tutorial for lighttpd
If it is not there, you should set lighttpd root directory according to your web page location
Hints(how i'm working):
Add /opt/ to your samba share folder. After it's more easy to access disc_02 and to see where the files are placed inside -more easy- to work ;)
With your vsftpd you can easy add *.torrent to "source" (log on with admin on entire "disc_03" )
For your friends you can place "target" into "ftp_pvt (to be visible from ftp -log on with guest on ftp_pvt)
But you need time for all this thinks
Enjoy !
Ok, my ez-setup looks like this now:
#!/bin/sh
if [ -f /mnt/protected/Downloaders/Transmission/work/.paused ]; then
/bin/rm -f /mnt/protected/Downloaders/Transmission/work/.paused
/opt/sbin/transmission_watchdog
sleep 10
else
touch /mnt/protected/Downloaders/Transmission/work/.paused && kill -TERM `cat /opt/var/run/transmission.pid`
fi
exit 0
followed the tutorial and changed the /opt/share/www with /opt/share/transmission/web. The page shows up, but there are no torrents
Hmmm.... I have no ideea.
Unfortunatelly i can't reproduce your situation.I've keeped only 3 days the new "transmission".
My knolege in linux is also very limitated.
Sory my friend!
New Transmission use it's own web server.
I think https is hopeless.
andersos
12-10-2008, 00:44
I think https may be added to Transmission. I recently noticed the devs were discussing it on irc.
