Hi guys, I've got a problem.
I've changed the settings in Transmission, like the port for incoming peers etc. Now every time I start downloading it says Invalid argument or Error, Tracker gave an invalid http response, then it usually changes MyDocs/Downloads to a read only file system (which I can get rid of thanks to this board).
So I was wondering if anybody could supply me with the original settings as there is no Restore to Defaults option.

Any help would be great.

Port for Incoming Connections: 51413

Limits:
Max peers per torrent:15
Max peers overall: 25

Web client:
Listening Port: 9091

These are the only settings that I see that you might need. Others should not effect the application I imagine. Re post if you need more.

Thanks afaq, but that had no effect.
Do I need to have Encryption mode: Prefer encryption
Use PEX to find more peers: tick/no tick
Use DHT to find more peers: tick/no tick
Use UPnP or NAT-PMP port forwarding from my router: tick/no tick
Pick a random port every time Transmision has started: tick/no tick
Enable web client: tick/no tick

Thanks.

Why don't you just reinstall transmission?

Here's the answer to your read only problem:
sudo gainroot
umount /dev/mmcblk0p1
fsck.vfat -aw /dev/mmcblk0p1

reboot.
Hope this helps.

So, my Transmission has stopped giving me errors but it wont seed to anybody and I'm getting in trouble with the private tracker. I've tried everything I can think of, to no avail and a ban is immenent.
Can anybody help?

If you have a router, the transmission port setting has to be consistant with the open forwarded port on you router.

In the Incoming Peers setting press Test Port.
It should give you some info.

Also what are your Forward ports with UPNP setting and pick random port setting?

I haven't got a router, I'm using my n900.
Everytime I press test port it says port is closed.
The UPnP and Random port options are unticked.

The closed port is the problem.

The missing information now is your network configuration, how do you connect to the internet? (wifi/gprs; if wifi then what are you connecting through, and so on, and so on ... all those details)

(Side thought: maybe checking UPNP will help - this could automatically assign and open the port for you)
