Transmission

How do I update from old clutch 04 and transmission to transmission 1.33 (which, if I understand correct, HAS clutch build-in)

[cico]

Yes, transmission 1.3 has clutch included, and comes also with it's own webserver, so there's no more need for lighttpd and php-fcgi. Updating to and running v1.3 can't be easier!

BUT:
I don't know how close you are following this and the transmission forum; apparently there seems to be a problem running v1.3 on a ppc-syno, reported here, here and here!

I'm running v1.3x without any problems (except for some minor web interface issues) 24/7 on my CS407 for 2 weeks now; the daemon-crashes seem to be gone!!

So, if you want to upgrade to v1.3 (1.33-1 is the current version in the optware feeds) you just have to do

Code: Select all

ipkg update

and

Code: Select all

ipkg upgrade

start the daemon

Code: Select all

transmission-daemon -f

and then call clutch under the (new!) address
http://your.syno.ip:9091/transmission/web

now the only thing left to do is to set the download location from within the clutch preferences, that's all!

When Im trying to update, upgrade and so on, it runs through all my old downloads, and, when I access the adresse, it doesn't come up...

How can I check the transmission version, and what can I do to get closed to the real problem..

[cico]

Code: Select all

ipkg list_installed

shows you all the packages you have currently installed...

you can also see the version when starting transmission with the "f"-option

Code: Select all

syno> transmission-daemon -f
Transmission 1.33 (6608) started
...

try to stop the daemon before doing "ipkg update/upgrade" with

Code: Select all

killall transmission-daemon

[markm]

This is what I get

Code: Select all

DiskStation> transmission-daemon -f
Transmission 1.33 (6608) started

open_listening_port(9091): Address already in use

[cico]

hm, this shows at least, that you are running v1.33 now...

It seems like another process is already listening to port 9091. And although lighttpd is still running from the "old" tm1.22/clutch0.4 installation (if you haven't removed it yet) it is listening to port 8081, so that can't be the reason?!

Sorry I can't help, for me everything went smooth...

To see which process is using the port, use netstat or lsof.

Code: Select all

/opt/sbin/lsof -iTCP:9091

Simply kill that process, and restart transmission-daemon

Personally I don't like running daemon as root, but that's a different story.

I restarted my nas and the harddisk collapsed...
