By default the daemon process will be using “Transmission” user which is set to /var/lib/transmission rather then using the /home folders. Transmission will automatically write it’s config to the user’s home directory. Now we can make changes to the settings.json file. This is important!! Transmission will write it’s setting files on shutdown, so if we edit the settings now and “restart” Transmission then our changes just get overwritten. If you get this error proceed to the next step… Configure Transmission For Remote Accessīefore we modify the configuration we’ll want to stop the service. The reason for this error is because Transmission is setup by default to only accept connections from localhost. You will either see Transmission load, or you will see an error like this: Transmission uses port 9091 by default, try it now using your server’s IP or FQDN.
Then start the process: service transmission-daemon start Test Transmission Yum -y install transmission transmission-daemon Now with this repository added we can install Transmission via yum yum -y update You can find the lastest EPEL repositories here:įor simplicity sake you can always just following my guide with version as of time of this writing, as it will be updated when you do an upgrade anyways. First we will need to install the EPEL repository to our server:
Transmission can be installed quite easily through the repositories, however it is not part of the default Red Hat repositories. Installing Transmission-BT to CentOS 6įor this guide I will be using CentOS 6, but any RHEL distro should work with similar commands. It is available for any OS and comes with it’s own GUI interface.Īlthough Transmission is not as popular as rTorrent/ruTorrent for seedboxes, it is still a strong solid choice as it does not require a web server to be deployed on the OS and has a light memory footprint allowing for it to run in very-low ram VPS environments. I can write to the mount with the stadard pi account and have tested this.Transmission is an open source and extremely lightweight Bittorrent client. Sudo usermod -G users debian-transmission
I have added the transmission-daemon to the correct group : I believe my permissions are correct on the ls -lĭrwxr-xr-x 1 root daemon 0 Jan 23 22:06 Completedĭrwxr-xr-x 1 root daemon 0 Jan 23 20:29 Incompleteĭrwxr-xr-x 1 root daemon 0 Jan 13 15:10 WatchFolder "incomplete-dir": "/mnt/Drobo/Torrents/Incomplete", "download-dir": "/mnt/Drobo/Torrents/Completed", Permission denied (/mnt/Drobo/Torrents/Completed/-wheezy-raspbian.zip) I upload a torrent via the WebUI and it appears to fail due to a permissions issue around 4MB (I believe this is the cache before it writes to disk). I have updated all the libs and install Transmission successfully, however I am getting a permission issue. Hi, I am a new linux user and attempting to get Transmission running on my Raspberry Pi.
