Can't launch Transmission (installed it from Program add-ons)

Help and Support Raspberry Pi

Just got Transmission installed. However I can’t get it to Launch.

I used to have the command-line version installed, but I uninstalled it with sudo apt-get purge transmission

Is there a trick to get it to run?

2

sudo systemctl start transmission ?

oh and settings,json is located here: /home/osmc/.config/transmission-daemon

3

please run

sudo systemctl status transmission

4

sudo systemctl status transmission

Gives me:

* transmission.service
   Loaded: not-found (Reason: No such file or directory)
   Active: inactive (dead)

This is weird. It seemed to have installed ok from the frontend programs list (downloaded, then installed). I can see the Transmission UI on OSMC for a split second before it errors.

Transmission is not installed if this file is missing.

Try “uninstalling” it from the app store and reinstalling. If that fails, please provide a full debug log after the installation.

Tried uninstalling/reinstalling. No dice.

Here’s the log. I uninstall, reinstall, then try to launch.

Just wanted to bump this, was going to give the non-App style Transmission a go again. Haven’t had much luck since.

What you have provided is a Kodi debug log, which has no real bearing on a 3rd party app such as Transmission.

We would need to see full debug logs for that, especially the APT logs and system journal.
