Hi fraumo,

What firmware version do you use ? (there are some changes with version 16.0).

Fail: install command failed : init-tr-daemon

This error is no longer reported with version 16.0.

Hello

I am using last version 16.0

Ok, I forgot to look at another file and now I understand at what step the script fails.

So can you see if the outputs are ok for:

Code: Select all

ls -l /direct-usb   (should return symlink toward /share/1000)

ls -dl /share/1000/tr-daemon
ls -ld /share/1000/tr-downloads    (should find these folders)

ls -l /usr/bin/transmission-daemon

grep '<transmission>' -A 4 /etc/nas_conf_db.xml  (you should see credential tags for transmission)


And last test, check if sda8 is mounted on /share/1000 with the command mount

[fraumo]

I get

ls -l /direct-usb (should return symlink toward /share/1000)
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 2015-07-02 12:22 /direct-usb -> /share/1000




ls -dl /share/1000/tr-daemon
drwxrwxrwx 5 root root 4096 2015-07-01 08:36 /share/1000/tr-daemon


ls -ld /share/1000/tr-downloads (should find these folders)
drwxrwxrwx 19 root root 12288 2015-07-01 08:16 /share/1000/tr-downloads


ls -l /usr/bin/transmission-daemon
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 402532 2014-03-15 12:34 /usr/bin/transmission-daemon

grep '<transmission>' -A 4 /etc/nas_conf_db.xml (you should see credential tags for transmission)
i have done this - nothing happen

finally i have done mount and I get

rootfs on / type rootfs (rw)
/dev/root on / type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=continue,barrier=1,data=ordered)
none on /proc type proc (rw,relatime)
none on /sys type sysfs (rw,relatime)
/dev/sda2 on / type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=continue,barrier=1,data=ordered)
none on /proc type proc (rw,relatime)
none on /sys type sysfs (rw,relatime)
none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,relatime,mode=600)
/dev/sda5 on /rw_fs type ext3 (rw,noatime,errors=continue,user_xattr,acl,barrier=1,data=ordered)
tmpfs on /rw_fs/tmp/usr/var type tmpfs (rw,relatime,size=5000k)
nfsd on /proc/fs/nfsd type nfsd (rw,relatime)
/dev/sda8 on /share/1000 type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=continue,user_xattr,acl,barrier=1,data=ordered)
/dev/root on /lacie-boot type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=continue,barrier=1,data=ordered)

still get failure message

So something to deepen on the nas database...

To be sure that we work on the same files: did you install this patch viewtopic.php?f=11&t=2077?

So can you post also

Code: Select all

ls -l /etc/nas_conf_db.xml

[fvdw]

grep '<transmission>' -A 4 /etc/nas_conf_db.xml

should this not be

Code: Select all

grep '<transmission>' -A 4 /rw_fs/etc/nas_conf_db.xml

and

ls -l /etc/nas_conf_db.xml

should be

Code: Select all

ls -l /rw_fs/etc/nas_conf_db.xml

The installation could fail because the executable is already present and in use and running

Code: Select all

ps -ef | grep transmission

to see what is happening the install script could be run manually from the command line (after ssh log on)

[Jocko]

should this not be

Code: Select all

grep '<transmission>' -A 4 /rw_fs/etc/nas_conf_db.xml

and

Code: Select all

ls -l /etc/nas_conf_db.xml

You are wrong fvdw

There is a symlink in /etc and it is why I asked the last output to see if the symlink is still here (note sda5 is also mounted) ;)

The installation could fail because the executable is already present and in use and running

Code: Select all

ps -ef | grep transmission

This should not happen because when you do a reset the script checks if transmission is running and in this case the script kills all transmission processes and waits some seconds to be sure that there is no orphan process.

to see what is happening the install script could be run manually from the command line (after ssh log on)

This is no longer true with version 16.0 (need to parse the nas database to get the credentials settings)

I have instal patch-upload patch menu

2015-07-02 22:16:52 fvdw-sl-16.0-trdownload-11may15.zip(fvdw-sl-16.0-trdownload-11may15.tar) OK

with the command ls -l /etc/nas_conf_db.xml i get
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 2015-07-02 23:18 /etc/nas_conf_db.xml -> /rw_fs/etc/nas_conf_db.xml

i try to reinstall server and I get


Transmission Server

Status server is not running
Status server is not installed
Fail: install command failed : init-tr-daemon

[Jocko]

The environment seems to be OK to install transmission...

So enable the debug mode to understand better what happens.

- Reload the transmission menu
- start the debug mode

Code: Select all

/etc/nas_status.sh --start-debug

- try to reinstall transmission
- stop the debug mode

Code: Select all

/etc/nas_status.sh --stop-debug

Then post the content of /var/log/messages
