Hi,

Optware (MIPS router) and Entware (ARM router) are outdated and replaced recently by Entware-NG! :eek:
Any reason you are not using the newest and supported Entware version? :rolleyes:

By the way: Entware-NG runs like a charm on both on my routers (incl. Transmission on the main one - see my footer)! :D

With kind regards
Joe :cool:

PS.: Are you aware of the limitations for Transmission to run on the router? I mean the tiny memory and low CPU power - plus connection issues as some ISPs are blocking file sharing (dependent on the no. of connections)?
 
The very first line of the /opt/etc/init.d/S95transmission file should be a shebang, like:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
Can you check if that's the case?
