Controlling (torrent) downloads thru webpage

[oleo]

e2fsck -f -y /dev/disk/...
mount -o rw,noatime /dev/disk/... /opt

[kolp]

Thats what it says


[admin@Asus root]$ transmission_watchdog
rm: remove `/opt/var/run/transmission.pid'?
/opt/sbin/transmission_watchdog: kill: 304: (281) - No such process

[kolp]

[admin@Asus root]$ e2fsck -f -y /dev/disk/...
e2fsck 1.40.2 (12-Jul-2007)
ext2fs_check_if_mount: No such file or directory while determining whether /dev/disk/... is mounted.
e2fsck: No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/disk/...

The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2
filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
e2fsck -b 8193 <device>

thats what it says now

well i did this
/dev/discs/disc0/part2: ***** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED *****

but this doesnt work

[admin@Asus root]$ mount -o rw,noatime /dev/discs/disc0/part2 mount: Cannot read /etc/fstab: No such file or directory

do i have to do tthis to part 3 also or no the tmpharddisk because i did

[kolp]

harddisk is rw when i looked into mount but opt is ro so ur right
but i cant do the second command u told me

[oleo]

try flashfs disable, reboot, then umount all, swapon /dev/disk/.../swappart, e2fsck -f -y /dev/disk/.../optpart

[kolp]

well this is wat i get now

[admin@Asus root]$ mount
/dev/root on / type squashfs (ro)
none on /dev type devfs (rw)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
ramfs on /tmp type ramfs (rw)
usbfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw)
/dev/discs/disc0/part2 on /opt type ext3 (rw)
/dev/discs/disc0/part3 on /tmp/harddisk type ext3 (rw,noatime)

is the last line right

[kolp]

so i still get ext3 noatime but everything else is ok except for this one problem
and this one i go to transmission and push the torrent
.status not found for /tmp/harddisk/torrent/work/Dragon_Ball_Z_Complete/Dragon_Ball_Z_Complete.torrent Start: 07 Sep 15:51
any ideas pls

[kolp]

i have got everything to work but i just want the firewall settings to be fixed because i am not connected to all the peers how do i do that oleo thanks

I already feel so much smarter --^

Hey, by the way i did figure it out on my own and got some help from oleo. not like you helped me out as for being smart what does this have to being smart. My buddy brought the router and he read something about downloading with the computer and i found this site with tutorials knowing nothing about what i was doing. And i did follow instructions and i now i have fixed my problems maybe everyone is smart at something but not everything.
And i wont say anything about age but lets just say way younger than you. I should be playing with some lego

Gahh, i can't get this to work.

First problem with the graph
If i install uclibc-opt then nano stops working and just gives me this "Error opening terminal: xterm". This is exactly the same problem as "hanseugen" had on page 7 (post #96) in this thread. It seems it worked for him to just re-install everything but that does not work for me ..

Main problem ..
Well, it does not work at all When i choose push on a torrent i just get the infamous "/opt/share/www/cgi-bin/transmission.cgi: kill: 9: (335) - No such process" error ..

I have read other people that has the same problem and have tried a lot of stuff but still can't get it to work.

Is it any problem with read/write access to the disk? I think it looks like my disk's is read/write .. when i type mount i get ..

/dev/discs/disc0/part2 on /tmp/harddisk type ext3 (rw,noatime)
/dev/discs/disc0/part3 on /tmp/harddisk/part1 type ext3 (rw,noatime)
/dev/discs/disc1/part1 on /tmp/harddisk/part2 type ext3 (rw,noatime)
/dev/discs/disc0/part2 on /opt type ext3 (rw,noatime)
/dev/discs/disc0/part3 on /opt/share/stordisk type ext3 (rw,noatime)
/dev/discs/disc1/part1 on /opt/share/mybook type ext3 (rw,noatime)

Well .. any help would be nice

It is assumed that transmssiond is started through transmission_watchdog when you are using transmission.cgi. If transmissiond is stopped/paused/not running then you get informational message like (kill, not running, ...) This is not a problem if you know what you are doing. You can administer torrents even faster if transmissiond is not running. When finished with huge rearangements the you can unpause and restart with watchdog.

transmission_watchdog is run every 30 minutes or so through cron process. That's why there is no startup script for transmissiond. Although I've seen that some people run transmission_watchdog at system startup, I do not recommend such practice.


Problems to nano are not related to uclibc-opt but rather to some missing libraries. Try

LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS=1 /opt/bin/nano

to see list of required libs (ncurses, ...)

If using oleg firmware, then create /etc/fstab for disk entries. Thi is recommended way for mounting partitions. Also there should be swap partition.

[Stuckish]

Ohh, thanx for the quick reply (and i guess i do not really know what im doing, trying at least hehe)

anyways .. what about the nano problem. You have any idea why that is. As soon as i install uclibc-opt_0.9.28-12_mipsel.ipk nano stops working .. and when i remove it nano works again ..

Is uclibc-opt_0.9.28-12_mipsel.ipk only to get the graph working?

Update:
Sorry, tha nano part was not in you message before hehe.

[Stuckish]

[admin@Asus harddisk]$ LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS=1 /opt/bin/nano
libncurses.so.5 => /opt/lib/libncurses.so.5 (0x2ab02000)
libgcc_s.so.1 => /opt/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x2aad7000)
libc.so.0 => /opt/lib/libc.so.0 (0x2ab9f000)
ld-uClibc.so.0 => /opt/lib/ld-uClibc.so.0 (0x2aac0000)
[admin@Asus harddisk]$

This is what i get .. sorry if im stupid but is this a list of packages that i have installed or is it what i do not have installed .. or maybe just a list of what i need?

Well, i tried to figure out what these packages are and manged to find ncurses (wich was installed) and then uClibc which is also installed .. the other ones i cannot really figure out what ipk packages to install ..

Puh .. think i should sleep now. It's hard to be a simple windows developer and learn this linux stuff .. stuff in the ms world is so simple (at least when you used to them hehe)
