Okay, no problem then. I'll also add empatico's "nobody" changes.

Great! That should resolve quite a few of the requests here... Smile

One thing I noticed (and this may not be a big thing, but just so you know) is that the patch as written has a lower bound on the ratio of .5. There's two spots (with two values each) in the patch that need to be edited to lower this (if you want to that is). Just do a search in the patch for .5 and change the 4 values to whatever you feel they should be (I left them alone).

If you're rebuilding anyway, could you please include the latest (updated) IE-compatability stylesheets from trac ticket 1602?

http://trac.transmissionbt.com/ticket/1602

The latest versions of ie6.css and ie7.css (about 4 weeks old) fix a few glitches in rendering in IE

http://trac.transmissionbt.com/raw-attachment/ticket/1602/ie6.2.css
http://trac.transmissionbt.com/raw-attachment/ticket/1602/ie7.2.css

placed in /stylesheets/ as ie6.css and ie7.css should do the trick - running them here against your latest build and they're working well.

Thanks!

Ahh, I was confused. The "start process after download complete" patch didn't apply cleanly.

Transmission 1.51-2 has been released.

Changes
- Includes patches for better Internet Explorer support
- Includes the "nobody" user context adjustment suggested by empatico
(more secure)
- Includes setting a Ratio limit
NO support in Gaya or webbrowser interface just yet!

Have not tested any of the above Smile
Happy downloading!

Note for BTPD 0.15 users: Please restart NMT for btpd to appear again!
or use telnet: /share/Apps/btpd/btpd.sh start


How to enable global ratio limit
Edit settings.json in the ".transmission" folder. Please make sure you have stopped transmission before editing the file and wait a couple of MINUTES before editing the file.

Add the following lines to enable ratio limit to 2.0
Code:
"ratio-limit": "2.000000",
"ratio-limit-enabled": 1,

Thanks Ger for your work.
I'm getting a bit of a problem though - after installing via CSI, starting *any* torrent causes clutch to collapse. Old completed torrents cause it to stop, and removing all torrents from the torrent dir and adding new ones cause it to collapse too Sad
Ah, removed the SU from the clutch script and it works now Smile

What's the "SU"? Huh


RE: [transmission] **** UPDATED **** Transmission 1.51-2 (NOW WITH RATIO!) - treqie - 04-08-2009 10:01 PM

I still can't figure out why the torrents that are added to transmission won't begin downloading.

Think it is a file permission on your HDD.
because transmission is run as user "nmt" instead of "root" it isn't able to read some "root" files on your HDD. I'll add another chown in the installer script.

Could you try again with the new one? (just reistall?).
I didn't see this issue though, was able to download something new at least.


RE: [transmission] **** UPDATED **** Transmission 1.51-2 (NOW WITH RATIO!) - SEELE01 - 04-09-2009 10:04 AM

Hi,

I was running transmission 1.51-1 when I saw the new release so I upgraded using CSI.
After upgrading the transmission-daemon process start quitting just after starting the clutch script.
I compared the clutch script from 1.51-1 and the current and it seems there's a su command added.
I tried manually starting transmission-daemon from command line w/o the su and it didn't quit.
I seems the switch to nmt user is causing problems.

I downgraded to 1.50 since there no more 1.51-1 in CSI. Problem went away.
I'll try to upgrade when this issue is solved.

Thanks Ger for the work.

When did you install the 1.51-2? I've added an additional file permissions fix during install 3hrs ago.


RE: [transmission] **** UPDATED **** Transmission 1.51-2 (NOW WITH RATIO!) - SEELE01 - 04-09-2009 10:14 AM

No more than 15mins ago.
Is the su really necessary? it was running fine w/o it

Yeah, I am going to remove it again. No real gains except some marginal improvement in security.


RE: [transmission] **** UPDATED **** Transmission 1.51-2 (NOW WITH RATIO!) - SEELE01 - 04-09-2009 10:37 AM

Thanks!
Please do let us know when it's ready.

this last version is really unstable for me. previous versions were fine but this version quits after reaching it with clutch.
