Entware Transmission stopped working

[zyxmon]

Do we install on top of previous 19a release or shall we uninstall 19a first ?

It does not matter. No need to install 19a first.

Still can't update...is there a manual way to do it?

 

[ColDen]

amtm still have an issue with reporting the Entware status (probably related to the fact that it keeps the previously reported version stored somewhere in memory):

Update - amtm is now correctly showing the entware version status:

The previous package version transmission-daemon_3.00-19a works! But there are reports it has memory leaks. Here is another one (based on gentoo patch) -

and

cool. seems like your build solved my issue. somehow transmission is a bit slower and sometimes struggle to get peers. also i noticed that adding torrents which have UTF-8 characters it does not display them. looks like somekind of charset issue? is it also related with openssl?

FIXED - at least a workaround. Per the other threads, I reinstalled libcurl and that worked.

opkg install --force-reinstall libcurl

Thank you. You saved me. I am not that fluent in linux, never would've fixed that by myself.

For next time, remember to shut down Transmission prior to updating packages.

And now i remember that i did exactly that)

Today I updated Entware packages through amtm, and now I'm not able to run transmission anymore.
No idea what's happening, if I try to start it manually:

max@MyAsus:/tmp/mnt/MyAsus/entware/bin# sh /opt/etc/init.d/S88transmission start
 Starting transmission-daemon...              done.
max@MyAsus:/tmp/mnt/MyAsus/entware/bin#

but there's no active process running for transmission.

and in System log the only "error" I can see is this:

Jun  4 08:08:39 max: Started transmission-daemon from .

From opkg list-installed it seems amtm updated transmission to 4.0.3-2:

max@MyAsus:/tmp/home/root# opkg list-installed | grep transmission
transmission-daemon - 4.0.3-2
transmission-web - 4.0.3-2

Am I the only one with this problem?

Thanks in advance.

Seems related to similar issue as in the past.

This workaround still works.

opkg remove --autoremove transmission-web
opkg remove --autoremove transmission-daemon
opkg --force-depends remove libcurl
opkg install libcurl
opkg install transmission-web

opkg remove --autoremove transmission-web
opkg remove --autoremove transmission-daemon
opkg --force-depends remove libcurl
opkg install libcurl
opkg install transmission-web

Thank you but no fixed the issue to me. It seems similar as in the past but not the same.

Trying to starting service I obtain the error:


symbol lookup error: /opt/lib/libdht.so: undefined symbol: dht_random_bytes

No positive results here too.
Process doesn't start at all.

Same here just updated to 4.0.3-2 not working. Any ideas?

Don't know what else to try.
Removed 4.0.3-2 installed by amtm, but trying to reinstall transmission-daemon from post #31:

max@MyAsus:/tmp/mnt/MyAsus/Downloads# opkg install transmission-daemon_3.00-19a_aarch64-3.10.ipk
Unknown package 'transmission-daemon'.
Collected errors:

I downgraded back to 388.1 and it works with transmission 4.0.3-2

Is there anyway to downgrade to the previous version of transmission 3.00-19a or b? I searched the entware repository and couldn't find anything but it might just be me not knowing where to look. I really don't want to futz around with downgrading the OS of the router to make transmission work again. Thanks for any help.

I don't know the answer for that. maybe @ryzhov_al can help?

Problem seems solved here downloading directly from entware.net archive (link is for arm7sf-kernel 2.6), both transmission-daemon_3.00-19b_armv7-2.6.ipk and transmission-web_3.00-19b_all.ipk. Uninstall daemon and web 4.0.3-2 then install these old versions, and Transmission restarts working on 386.11 firmware.

Uhmmm.... maybe I speak too early. Transmission starts, and stay alive until I load a couple of small .torrent files:
This is the log when I try to connect to webui:

I think I'm just going to wipe entware and start fresh again as none of the suggestions work unfortunately. I'll post my results later on in the weekend. Thanks.
