Hello,
I did something very dumb over the weekend and now finding my transmission setup, which working fault free for years, not working correctly.
Here's the long version:
My problem is that transmission is downloading now with file permission -rw-r--r-- (644?), whereas it was -rw-rw-r-- (664). I've tried changing this through the GUI which is telling me that it is set to *edited* 775 (and isn't from what I see), so I think I have broken something with the aforementioned stupidity. Would like to return it to how it was, downloading to 664 and or get the web interface working again.
Also, and equally problematic Directories are now created as drwxr-xr-x whereas they were drwxrwxr-x
Any help getting this sorted out would be much appreciated.
Regards,
PiP
I did something very dumb over the weekend and now finding my transmission setup, which working fault free for years, not working correctly.
Here's the long version:
- I thought to upgrade transmission from 2.92 and not knowing that this could be done from the console did so directly via "pkg install transmission-daemon"
- The alarm bells were warning but stupidly I persisted despite the messages / warning provided.
- After 2.94 was installed I thought nothing more of it but the next day when I came use, it wasn't working properly.
- I then did what I should have done in the first place and took the time to look through the gui, and having realised that I could upgrade from there, did so.
- Confirmed that 2.93 now installed. Web interface works fine, torrent download works fine.
- I am using PIA, I also think that works fine as it previously was.
