Proxy part exists in Transmission 2.20. It's the latest version... You need to setup settings.json and restart the daemon. I'm testing transmission on Ubuntu 10.04

It is a bug with the Launchpad PPA package build for ubuntu.

They have always the latest version of transmission.
Removed the PPA repository and kept only the original one from Ubuntu.

Now it seens to be working just fine.

But its on versio 1.93 of transmission that have some bugs on the web interface.

Well, better that than loosing my account because of the horrible upload speed I have in my internet service.

Transmission has HTTP proxy support. We've tried transmission on Ubuntu and FreeBSD and it works great with TRK. Please check transmission config file or update app if needs.

Using transmission 2.41 on FreeBSD

this is my settings.json file for proxy config.



"proxy": "127.0.0.1",
"proxy-auth-enabled": false,
"proxy-auth-password": "",
"proxy-auth-username": "",
"proxy-enabled": true,
"proxy-port": 3012,
"proxy-type": 0,


Even a while ago that feature stoped and I read something in the developer community they where going to remove it since it's only tracker proxy and not peer.

It doesnt work at all with TorrentRatioKeeper.
I used it for years udner windows now my server has to be a FreeBSD. Even a while ago under linux it didn't worked in earlier versions. That proxy string isn't available in settings.json after I install transmission. Had to put it there myself.

Try to run TRK and then telnet to it (like telnet localhost 3012). Does it work? I wounder if your firewall allows it. IF it works, try to change "proxy": "127.0.0.1", to "proxy": "localhost", please.

Can't access it via telnet.
I can access both 127.0.0.1 and localhost
Firewall is open

Tried even to run it as root


Guess something in the diablo JDK under FreeBSD isn't doing it's thing ok.

Do you see messages from TRK? (Like its running fine)
If you see messages, check firewall settings please.

I don't even have firewall enabled on FreeBSD. Everything is open in this machine. The firewall I have here is only in my router.
I guess it's something with the java package from FreeBSD. Or transmission really removed proxy support.
https://trac.transmissionbt.com/ticket/3688

This is what I get when I run it.

#java -jar /storage2/TORRENTS/torrentratiokeeper/TorrentRatioKeeperMonster.jar -ui:0 -upinc:200
Please read Torrent Ratio Keeper tutorial to setup the torrent client if you launched the app first time: http://www.torrentratiokeeper.com/javatutorial
You are using full version


here the telnet. It says conected but no mention about anything.


# telnet localhost 3012
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.

That looks good. TRK works good, port is opened ("Connected to localhost.").
Did you try to change 127.0.0.1 to localhost on transmission proxy settings?
