Why has transmission stopped working?

[bird333]

As far as I know I haven't done anything. It doesn't start when the router boots and I can't get it to start manually. This is the entware version of transmission not the built in transmission. I am running Shibby 114 on a Asus RT-N66R. This is the S88transmission script that should start transmission.

#!/bin/sh
ENABLED=yes
PROCS=transmission-daemon
ARGS="-g /opt/etc/transmission"
PREARGS=""
DESC=$PROCS
PATH=/opt/sbin:/opt/bin:/opt/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
. /opt/etc/init.d/rc.func

This is the log from router startup/reboot

Dec 14 20:49:36 RT-N66R user.notice 0: Started transmission-daemon from .

This is the log when I manually try to start it

Dec 15 07:14:18 RT-N66R user.notice 0: Failed to start transmission-daemon from .

Does anyone know how I can get more detailed log info to figure this out?

I suspect your settings.json file is corrupt or missing some critical item that the daemon is requiring. I'd double-check that file first.

There is an option -e that you can pass a filename to dump the log messages to.
