Been using Transmission for years, grabbing torrents from dimeadozen.org, but now the latest version of Transmission has been blocked by DIME. Seems like it's buggy and causing problems.
Anyone has the same problem? Anyone know another way to download to my NAS? .(it's the only torrent package for Synology NAS I know).
Hope to find a solution. Or if I can reach the Transmission people to have them update.
Tried to install an earlier version of Transmission but it dit not work.

How exactly are you running transmission on the NAS? Are you talking the Download Station (its running trasnmission under the hood), or is it a Transmission app installed via some 3rd party repository/package?
 
Thanks.
Aha. I found the package on my Diskstation, Packages. And installed it from there. Ohh, I thought that was a supported app. Hmmm. I'm not at my computer now but it was listed among all other apps available. I can check later.
 
That means that the package center has been updated with a custom respository. If that is true, then it would be best to ask the maintainer(s) of that repository if anything can be done with that version of Transmission.

As an alternative, you could try and use the Synology's Download Station app and give that a go, see if that will work.
 
Giving this a try, trying to download an earlier version of Transmission but I can't understand which one I should go for. See attached list of alternative downloads. Hanks!

If the NAS in question is DS214play, then the 7.1 evansport as @Telos mentioned should work.
 
Thank you, I found the Evansport. Been trying to install this now but it won't even accept any downgrading from the latest version..! So, I've tried to contact the people behind Transmission. Trying a couple of different ways to get in contact don't know if I'll succeed. Thanks for the help, I may be back... /Hank
 
Hi sorry if this is the wrong place & high jacking HankD's thread. He does seem to have found a solution for his problem.

I'm also having problems with transmission which i cant access through the transmission web client on my laptop any longer. This has been happening the last couple of days even though there has been no updates on my NAS.

I thought this was due to something with my router but its the same through my android phone through data.

NAS - DS115j
DSM - 7.1.1-42962 Update 7
Transmission - 4.0.6-27

Not sure if i should downgrade & if so what version would be best?

Hi! I managed to find a way to get hold of an earlier version but it was not accepted, Transmission said I could not downgrade..! Shame. I have tried to reach the Transmission people but not obvious to me how to reach them.

Hi HankD

I don't think it will help contacting Transmission direct as think its the developer & publisher of the package you're using on the you're NAS is Synoommunity. I'm also unsure were is the best place on this community to report any problems with the use of the Transmission package :(

Hopefully somebody can point us both in the right direction for help :)

EDIT - I think i found were to report the bug but think your error might be different to mine. I'm not sure if i cant post the link to report on this forum?
 
You still unable to connect HankD?

I'm getting nowhere with finding a solution :(
 
I have now also raised an issue on the GitHub (?) for Transmission, hope that will help me. Thanks
