Transmission not working 1.12.0

Post by aszat84 »

Hello Guys,
Is there any plugin for transmission, or have to install it separately?

Post by aszat84 »

Hello Guys,
I've installed the transmission ,but I have rpc problem. Could somebody help me? I tried to resolve the issue, but no luck.
"421: Misdirected RequestTransmission received your request, but the hostname was unrecognized.To fix this, choose one of the following options:Enable password authentication, then any hostname is allowed.Add the hostname you want to use to the whitelist in settings.If you're editing settings.json, see the 'rpc-host-whitelist' and 'rpc-host-whitelist-enabled' entries.This requirement has been added to help prevent DNS Rebinding attacks."
Everything looks fine in the file. /etc/config/transmission.Please help.

I also had the same problem, I had to manually delete the configuration, and then a new one was created using /etc/config/transmission.

1. Stop the transmission service:

Code: Select all

/etc/init.d/transmission stop
2. Delete the configuration file:

Code: Select all

rm -f /tmp/transmission/settings.json
3. Start the transmission service:

Code: Select all

/etc/init.d/transmission start
- This will create a new configuration file from /etc/config/transmission.

- I personally recommend to change the configuration directory to USB or other storage, because after restarting the router the torent will be deleted.

Hello RomanHK
Thanks for your help, I got another error now :/
403: Forbidden
Unauthorized IP Address.

Either disable the IP address whitelist or add your address to it.

If you're editing settings.json, see the 'rpc-whitelist' and 'rpc-whitelist-enabled' entries.

If you're still using ACLs, use a whitelist instead. See the transmission-daemon manpage for details.

Everything is enabled with the default configuration. Check the /etc/config/transmission RPC configuration = you will have security enabled - modify or disable it.

Default RPC configuration:

Code: Select all

	option rpc_authentication_required false
	option rpc_bind_address '0.0.0.0'
	option rpc_enabled true
	option rpc_host_whitelist '127.0.0.1,192.168.1.*'
	option rpc_host_whitelist_enabled false
	option rpc_password ''
	option rpc_port 9091
	option rpc_url '/transmission/'
	option rpc_username ''
	option rpc_whitelist '127.0.0.1,192.168.1.*'
	option rpc_whitelist_enabled false

I've disabled and enabled it, I got the same.
As I see on the setting.json these entry's were not updated.
option rpc_enabled true
option rpc_port 9091
option rpc_url '/transmission/
option rpc_whitelist '127.0.0.1,192.168.*.*,*.*.*.*'

option rpc_host_withelist_enabled true
option scrape_paused_torrents_enabled true

"rpc-enabled": true,
"rpc-host-whitelist": "",
"rpc-host-whitelist-enabled": true,
"rpc-port": 9091,
"rpc-url": "/transmission/",
"rpc-username": "",
"rpc-whitelist": "127.0.0.1",

Yes, so you must manually delete it in my first post.

Yes, I've removed it as you mentioned, and after I started the transmission , I got the error 403 instead of the 421.

After each change in /etc/config/transmission you must delete the .json file (probably an error in the OpenWrt package).

As you can see, the following lines are a problem for you:
option rpc_whitelist_enabled true
option rpc_host_withelist_enabled true

Change it to: false

Now it's on false, but the json is not updating. I've stopped-removed-started

option rpc_whitelist '127.0.0.1,192.168.*.*,*.*.*.*'
option rpc_whitelist_enabled false
option rpc_host_withelist '127.0.0.1,192.168.*.*,*.*.*.*'
option rpc_host_withelist_enabled false


"rpc-host-whitelist": "",
"rpc-host-whitelist-enabled": true,
"rpc-username": "",
"rpc-whitelist": "127.0.0.1",
"rpc-whitelist-enabled": true,
