    I don't know if this is the best place for this, I guess the forum should have more sections. I am using Transmission in OpenWrt on X10 for downloading torrents, everything is fine, but after each restart I am loosing all the torrents in the list. The files are still there, but there is nothing appearing in the Transmission interface. Any ideea?

    You need to add a delay on startup script. See may tips and tricks post.

    I'm not sure why at the moment, but disabling watch directory apparently brings back the torrents. I also moved the config file from/tmp/transmission to the disk drive (note: this did not worked by itself).

    If transmission restarts it will work. If you add a delay to startup .it will work. Delay is auto. Restart is manual. Your choice. This is a known problem.

    I'll add this delay to official firmware.

    After latest update, this is happening again. It loses the torrents after restart. I already added the delay to the startup. Any ideea?

    I have 30 seconds now. Isn't that enough? Can you tell me what is the explanation for this? Why is it necessary?
    Thank you.

    try 60, can't tell the reason , suspect transmission starts before hdd is properly mounted

    Transmission config file is on the same disk and is properly loaded. I'm not sure that is the reason.

    I had the same problem after last update , the only solution that worked is to Open the System - Startup item and go down to the local startup script at the bottom of the page and just add this:

    sleep 60
    exit 0

    after that you save and reboot and it should work.

    I'm still having the same problem even after setting sleep to 120. This is how my local startup looks like:
    Code:
    sleep 120
    /etc/init.d/transmission start
    exit 0
    I have Zidoo X9S running the latest firmware (OTA), and I connected my HDD via SATA cable. Any suggestions?

    Retry with just :

    Sleep 60
    exit 0
