wankel Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Hello, Just setup my unraid server with Transmission running and when I add a torrent it stops after a few minutes and I get the following errors: Jan 22 11:21:30 Tower transmission-daemon[5239]: Couldn't save temporary file "/boot/custom/transmission/transmission.conf/resume/fairplay-facup2011.3rd.round.replay.leeds.vs.arsenal.720p.mkv.b7e69efad56ab528.resume.tmp.LDgLmd": Read-only file system (bencode.c:1680) Jan 22 11:21:30 Tower transmission-daemon[5239]: Couldn't save temporary file "/boot/custom/transmission/transmission.conf/stats.json.tmp.JZjvnS": Read-only file system (bencode.c:1680) Initially I setup my server with Unraid 4.6, installed Transmission, and then upgraded to 4.7 beta 1. I didn't try adding a torrent before the upgrade so not sure if the problem existed before. Should I install transmission to my cache drive instead? Thanks. Steve Quote Link to comment
prostuff1 Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 It appears that your flash drive or the disk you are trying to save files to is having a problem. My first guess is the flash drive but I would need to see an entire syslog to figure it out. Quote Link to comment
wankel Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 Just reinstalled everything on a new usb stick and it seems ok so far. Thanks for the help. Quote Link to comment
BRiT Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 It's a shame to see your original USB flash drive acting up, but it's good to see yet another problem solved. Quote Link to comment
funbubba Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 It's a shame to see your original USB flash drive acting up, but it's good to see yet another problem solved. When I first set up Transmission, one thing I noticed in the syslog was the daemon writing resume and stat files to /boot/config/transmission/transmission.conf every 2 minutes. I wasn't digging that so after about a day of tampering I managed to set transmission.conf to my SNAP drive. Unfortunately I didn't document the changes but one of the key changes was editing transctl in the install package in order to make the changes persistent. I'm sure there's a more elegant way of doing that but I didn't know enough about piping commands and injecting an edited path into an existing shell script. Quote Link to comment
