I am testing some builds for transmission at this very moment, whenever it is fixed I'll update the downloads again.

I have had some serious problems with transmission-140. After what looked like a perfect installation...
Dead link: MYIP:9091/transmission/web
Dead link: MYIP:8077
And after (rebooting/reinstallations) x 5 BitTorrent stopped to work too.
Disaster.

I don't know what started BitTorrent again, but now it works again.
Via telnet I executed /mnt/syb8634/server/clutch start
and just got the help text for the daemon's switches. Somethings wrong.

I took a look inside /mnt/syb8634/server/clutch and managed to start the daemon for transmission 1.40 by executing these two lines:
export CLUTCH_HOME=/mnt/syb8634/transmission/web/
/mnt/syb8634/bin/transmission-daemon-140 -a +${MY_IP}/24 -g /share/.transmission -T -w /share/Download
Success!

I tried to execute this line (from "clutch"):
ifconfig | grep "inet addr" | grep -v 127.0.0.1 | sed 's/.*inet addr:\([0-9.]*\).*/\1/'
-and got two IP-adresses back. I don't fully understand this script but I think I'm right when I say that this was causing my problem. I edited the switches for the daemom with my IP-adress:
/mnt/syb8634/bin/transmission-daemon-140 -a 192.168.0.5/24 -g /share/.transmission -T -w /share/Download
-which made this work:
/mnt/syb8634/server/clutch start

Then I added user/passwd swithes:
/mnt/syb8634/bin/transmission-daemon-140 -a 192.168.0.5/24 -g /share/.transmission -t -u myuser -v mypassword -w /share/Download
-and now it workes exactly as I wanted!

I don't know if this has anything to do with your problems, but I thought it would be better to tell you what I know instead of just beeing quiet.

1.41 is working like a charm. But isnt there supposed to be a scheduler with transmission 1.40? I cant find it! (nevermind: only available in the GTK+ version i see).

Installed torrentwatch. First 5 minutes it worked. Now torrentwatch is working and i believe transmission is working too, but i cant reach clutch now.

Sorry being late installing it, I misunderstod your release note, I thought it was without TorrentWatch patch.
About integration of patches; I have created a automated build script which:
- Gets the latests sources
- Applies some tweaks (compiler optimizations etc).
- Applies patches from Journey
- Builds the source
- Creates the release including the installer files, gaya and web interface
- Zips and uploads it to my webspace.

So all future releases will have the TorrentWatch patches ;-)

I know, I have the same problem. After investigation and even some TCP/IP tweaks on the Popcorn itself I think I have figured it out. My downloads drop when I have multiple big torrents open at the same time.

I.e. When I download three 720p movies AND openoffice.org, my combined down-speed is around 5kb. When I only download openoffice.org my speed is 500-700kb/s.

I am really suspecting that disk i/o is the cause of the low speeds.
hello all

My tracker do not accept this build , its only 1.40 Build 7096

Well to test i have one download running of 1.4 Gb. Max speed i get is 8-10 kb/s. There has to be other reasons as well.

What speed do you get by using a torrent from:
http://distribution.openoffice.org/p2p/
?

Just to let you know I upgraded to the 1.41 beta and everything is looking good. It's working fine with TorrentWatch.


where i can get nmt fo 1.41 beta?
anybody share pliz
i downloaded openoffice. I got about 90kb/s. Not bad but with utorrent i got 1Mbps. Same for the other torrent. Somehow transmission is just slower on the PCH.
I installed 1.41 and forgot to close the torrent program. And now i still dont get the transmission to start..

Have you read what I wrote earlier? Have you tried what I tried yet?
All who want to try test version from first page - want to confirm, persist problem with download speed not with starting downloads. Download speed is much slower than in 1.40+. Something not correct with seeders detection IMHO (after download restart seeders count is another than before). But it's one good news - upload is very good and stable.
Suggest to wait new release from Ger Teunis.
I did download speed investigation and submitted the following bug report:
http://trac.transmissionbt.com/ticket/1565

I hope this issue will be fixed before final release of version 1.41
