Re: transmission-web settings do not work

Other settings are the defaults. Then I do this:

vm01# mkdir -p /download
vm01# chown -R transmission:transmission /download
vm01# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/transmission start
Starting transmission.
vm01# ps axww | grep transm
8963 ?? SsJ 0:00.00 /usr/local/bin/transmission-daemon -g
/usr/local/etc/transmission/home -a 192.168.0.1 -w /download

My problem: cannot use web UI from outside. Here is the error I get:
Unauthorized IP Address.
From transmission manual:
-a --allowed x.x.x.x,...
Allow RPC access to a comma-delimited whitelist of IP addresses.
Wildcards can be specified in an address by using '*'. Default:
"127.0.0.1" Example: "127.0.0.*,192.168.1.*"

So by settings this flag you are allowing only IP 192.168.0.1.
However, it is useless to change "rpc-whitelist-enable" to "false" in
the ~transmission/settings.json file. I can even delete it. It doesn't
matter. Anytime I start transmission-daemon, it ignores all the
settings. Then, if I stop it, it dumps out the default settings again to
settings.json.
régi settings.json-t.

When starting up transmission-daemon, it doesn't tell anything about not
found config file, cannot read or parse it etc.

Try this way:
remove that flag, turn off transmission-daemon, change settings.json and then
start transmission-daemon.
