Also, I am using only private trackers in cTorrent and possibly there could be only 10 peers on the 3 torrents total. This could not crash the tcp stack.

Can we downgrade Transmission to 1.50 or is there a fix coming up?

The CSI has a 1.40, 1.42 and 1.50 release. Try them all. But I am suspecting that these will crash also. I am really thinking the problem is in the firmware or even in the configuration of it. Please stop transmission. Try to download a large file, high speed, high peer torrent with cTorrent to test it cTorrent is working correctly or not. Also try transmission 1.40 after that. We will have to figure out what is going on here.

This crashing started after I updated Transmission to 1.51-1. Is there a way to revert to 1.51 via CSI or 1.51-1 has been fully branched with 1.51?

cTorrent has not crashed ever but I will check. Anyway, the point is the firmware upgrade happened a good 3 weeks ago and no crashes were experienced. Its been crashing after an update to 1.51-1.

Edit:

Btw, Ger, I have not used your updated 1.51-1 package which you remarked as a repackaged version. I am just using the first release of 1.51-1. Should I grab the new one and try? What exact changes were merged into this repackaged version?

(03-30-2009 12:59 PM)gtdaqua Wrote:  Ok, I got to try that one like in an hour when I get back home. But I am hoping it can't be the firmware because if it is, HDX users are in for trouble. The major firmware happened on Mar 6 and the box has been rock solid since. Its just this 1.51-1 is giving us this new behaviour.

I will try to report back in probably in an hour. Are you the only one working on this Transmission project for NMT? Your immediate response is really great and thank you for your awesome support.

(03-30-2009 01:17 PM)agmp Wrote:  Hi again, Ger. The answer is yes. I have been donwloading for several days without any problem. I might have downloaded 30-40GB successfuly. But yesterday I re-started a paused torrent and it crashed again. I think this must be an issue with that particular .torrent, so nevermind. I reboot PCH, quickly removed that torrent and everything works great again.

I'm getting a bit bored with the crash reports, trying to figure out what is going on. What combinations are working and what is not.

I'm a very happy user or a PCH-A100 with it faulties, even when it crashes and need to restart once in a while.
With all the applications people like you are making, increase the use of the PCH, making it much more usefull.
I understand your goal to make it 100% fiable, but "don't ask for pears to the apple tree", is what we say in Spain, at least when the PCH is a "little buggy".

In order to make things easier (and less annoying) to Ger, here is the combination I am currently using, which works fine:

Firmware version: [A110] Firmware 01-17-081023-15-POP-403
NMT apps version: 00-17-081023-15-POP-403
Transmission version: 1.51-1 build
Peers per torrent: 10/20
DL limit: 800KB/s
UL limit: none

Totally agree with dagovima. I think that is clear as water that PCH is not a perfect machine. But it works really nice for almost everything it is intented for.

Ger, do not try to get Transmission to work 100% of the time for everyone owning a PCH. You're doing a great job and nothing can be said to you but thanks.

Everybody else, please take into account that Ger is "just" a software developer, not the manufacturer of PCH.
