As I don't program, solution 1 seems the best for me. How can this be done? Do I have to downgrade transmission with IPKG?Quote:

Transmission library is getting much attention from principal developer recently. There are big changes. And some bugs can be introduced with such changes. I follow this changes with my daemon, but I do not study all the changes.
See http://transmission.m0k.org/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/timeline
I think that this "Unable to open ..." problems started with Merge io branch into trunk . So package before r1356 should not have this problem.
How to downgrade package? Go to http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/op.../cross/stable/ and select package and then with mouse right click select "Copy link location". Open telnet in your router in tmp directory and then paste this after wget. For example:
Then just issueCode:wget http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/oleg/cross/stable/transmission_0.6+r1320-1_mipsel.ipk
Anyway, I have upgraded to r1214 in http://trac.nslu2-linux.org/optware/changeset/5249 and It looks like it works. But did not done much testing. Just following the logs for errors.Code:ipkg install -force-downgrade transmission_0.6+r1320-1_mipsel.ipk
Is it possible to change the download/upload bandwidth limits dynamically, ie. without killing all instances of transmissiond, editing transmission.conf and starting them up again?
At the moment no. There are provisions that this will be included if some problems with ratecontrol are solvet. Until then it is recommended to use router bandwith limiter and not application level limiter with transmission. So -1 is recommended value.
Iam debugging rate limiting right now.
Hi guys,
sorry for basic questions, but i didn't found any how to, to setup torrents in my WL-500g.
Current firmware: 1.9.2.7-7f
Can someone point me to the right direction?
Thanks
:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:
With latest patch Transmission r1450 now works stable also with setting upload/download speed in /opt/etc/transmisison.conf.
I reccommend to set UPLOAD_SPEED 5 to 10 kBps lower than your line capability.Quote:
Ratecontrol counts only good transferred packets. Handshaking, messages and other non-data transfer does not count. This means that there are some packets
in transfer that are not affected by ratecontrol ant that UPLOAD_SPEED should
be set to lower value than max upload line capability.
Hi. I have some trouble with transfer graph log:
The file /opt/torrent/work/transfer.data is empty.Quote:
Creating graph...
gnuplot> plot '/opt/torrent/work/transfer.data' using ($1++3600):2 title 'download' axis x1y1 with impulses, '/opt/torrent/work/transfer.data' using ($1++3600):3 title 'upload' with impulses, '/opt/torrent/work/transfer.data' using ($1++3600):4 axis x1y2 title 'load' with lines ^ "/opt/torrent/work/transfer.gnuplot", line 13: no data point found in specified file
PS:
Torrents downloads fine.
I have this version of gnuplot: http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/op...0-1_mipsel.ipk

Sorry for my English :)
You have problem with syslog. Normaly hartbeat is written every 5 minutes.
Eg. you should have lines in /opt/var/log/messages like
If they are nonexistent, then check if syslog is running or not. Maybe you did not kill original syslog and you have duplicate syslogd running. Mine runsCode:Feb 19 08:30:06 transmissiond[2078]: 1171870206 4 dl 145.39 ul 24.87 ld 1.23
Feb 19 08:35:06 transmissiond[2078]: 1171870506 4 dl 188.69 ul 25.14 ld 1.27
Feb 19 08:40:06 transmissiond[2078]: 1171870806 4 dl 172.64 ul 25.66 ld 1.48
Tracker announce interval clamped to 3hours instead of 5 minutes in Transmission 1463-4.Code:/sbin/syslogd -m 0 -O /opt/var/log/messages -S -l 7
See http://trac.nslu2-linux.org/optware/changeset/5538 for details
Yes, you are right.
This script did not work:
When I have corrected it as it is:Quote:
#!/bin/sh
#
# Startup script for syslogd
#
# Stop myself if running
if [ -n "`pidof syslogd`" ]; then
/bin/killall syslogd 2>/dev/null
fi
/sbin/syslogd -m 0 -O /opt/var/log/messages -S -l 7
it has worked.Quote:
#!/bin/sh
#
# Startup script for syslogd
#
# Stop myself if running
if [ -n "`pidof syslogd`" ]; then
killall syslogd 2>/dev/null
fi
/sbin/syslogd -m 0 -O /opt/var/log/messages -S -l 7
Thank you.
Corrected readme for this issue.
The above piece of script is overkill. It's much simpler to do this:
Code:killall syslogd 2>/dev/null && \
/sbin/syslogd -m 0 -O /opt/var/log/messages -S -l 7
this script fails if syslogd is not running!Quote:

But now I have a problem: I don't know at which step I made a mistake, but if I login now with Telnet/SSL and for example enter 'nano' it does not start. It shows only 'Error opening terminal: xterm'. MC works, but it only shows the directories *.cedit,*.mc,*.httpd.conf. But with 'ls/' or 'vi' I can access all of my files.
I think the error exist after installing uclibc-opt or after enter '/sbin/syslogd -m 0 -O /opt/var/log/messages -S -l 7'.
What can I do? I don't want to refirm my router (WL-500gp with 1.9.2.7-7f) again..:-(
Perhaps it is important, this is my ipkg.conf:
===========Code:src unslung http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/oleg/cross/stable
dest root /
okay:
helps...Code:awk '/^Package:/{system("ipkg install -force-reinstall -force-defaults " $2)}' /opt/lib/ipkg/status
Gettin trouble resuming torrents after crash.
Strange the older version I had didnt cause any troubles with stability.
It marks torrents as paused for no reason and gives IO errors.http://img141.imageshack.us/img141/2348/transyo0.jpg
If I try to push them I get /opt/share/www/cgi-bin/transmission.cgi: kill: 9: (5828) - No such process
No problem with stability for me. This paused is really strange. It looks like tracker related thing.
Well you had to change something related to tracker stuff cause before this after hard reboot the daemon simply checked the files and started again.
Now I need to delete the files to make it start again.
What I see from your image is that maybe you do not have proper time configured at router. As started shows 1.jan 1970! So check jour NTP config if this is the case.
Have been using enhanced-ctorrent for a while with no complaints but would be interested in making the change over to a Web GUI.
Have done a search and read the posts ...but is the a definitive up-to-date tutorial for install ...or should stop whining and put one together :)
Thanks in advance for any info
Hi there,
i have a WL-HDD with transmission installed.
Its working fine until now.
syslog is running and transmissiond is reporting to /opt/var/log/messages.
so far, so good.
The strange thing: There are no entries like
I only see start and stop messages of transmissiond.Quote:
Feb 19 08:30:06 transmissiond[2078]: 1171870206 4 dl 145.39 ul 24.87 ld 1.23

Webinterface shows 'Unable to find recent transfer stats in syslog'
Any idea?
wengi
PS: my setup is done as explained here. (but not translated to english until now)
PPS: By the way. Is it possible to set a seed ratio or seed time for transmission?
Thanks oleo - & Moody Blue for the Tutorial
Hello
I've just bought a WL-500gP and installed latest -7f oleg's firmware... Amazing I must say... Then to get similar functionalities as DM I manage to install transmition pack (thanks all for tut's - oleo, macsat, other's... - and especially moody blue - Portugal Rules! hehehe)
I haven't installed/configured wondershaper yet but I noticed that with abou 7-8 torrents downloading/seeding my bandwidth gets all eaten by transmission (I cannot browse the web fluently - I'm using wireless: don't really use ethernet cable, yet)
The theorical spec's of my connection are: 12Mbs dl / 400kbs ul...
This is normal, with these number of torrents DL - arround 64kbs dl/ 75kbs ul- or wondershaper will make some wonders with my connection?
I guess that with such wide bandwidth that shouldn't be a problem or the hardware can't handle that much traffic?
What can/must I do to, somehow, get better overall performance?
I want to install rddtool but I'm afraid it'll make it even worse...
Cheers
Lourenco
Limit upload speed in transmisison.conf to 75% of your upload speed.
I'm newbie.
I have one question.
Does transmission support file size more than 2GB ?
Thank you.
No limits on file size
Not from transmission, but if you used FAT32 for your external drive you'll have a 4 GB limitation.
Thank you.Quote:

I was use torrent.cgi (btget) it's can't hold file size not over 2GB. I like Que feature. But it's not convinient for me. I like to download full DVD movie.
Then I moved to use Seaky's CTCS. It's good for me. I can download everything. Fast and releability but use much resource. Thank you Seaky.

Yesterday I read some topic on this webboard and I found the transmission has pretty traffic log. I want to try.
PS. My HDD is format to ext3.
Can you tell us what kind of load do you get using SCTS? Use "uptime" in the console. I understand it uses more RAM already, if it uses CPU too I'm afraid I'll have to pass no matter how nice the interface is. torrentflux-b4rt for instance is the ultimate in terms of interface, yet it's simply too heavy for the 500gP.
This is your request.Quote:

But I like the pretty interface of torrentflux.
Assuming you took those readings while running at least a couple of torrent through SCTS, it's not bad at all.
torrentflux is a whole adventure to install.
Yes, I have running some torrent and reading web page too.

What do you mean with 'gl' in "Or gl with wondershaper"?
I've tried wshaper but whit not that good noticeable performance...
Is there a better (advanced) tutorial about wshaper?
Thanks
Lourenco
See this thread and text-search for "wondershaper" in the first post for some tips. I'm also about to add a new post which may help you even more.
How?????????Quote:
