Transmit-deleted commands are errors with an unexpected response: <h1> 401: Unauthorized </h1> Unauthorized user: deflate, gzip

Question

I am running the latest Raspbian distribution and have just installed the transmission packages.

However, whenever I run the transmission-remote command - say, to change some basic configurations - I still get the same error:

 $ transmission-remote -DU -c required -p 9091 -w ~/torrents Unexpected response: <h1>401: Unauthorized</h1>Unauthorized User: deflate, gzip 

I can’t find any good troubleshooting documents or tutorials, and I suspect that I skipped the step in the initial installation process that led to this error. I already tried setting the username / password, i.e.

 $ transmission-remote --auth myusername:mypassword 

who succeeded, but he still throws the same “Unexpected Response” error for all other teams.

Running transmission-daemon does not work either:

 $ service transmission-daemon start [....] Starting bittorrent daemon: transmission-daemonstart-stop-daemon: unable to set gid to 110 (Operation not permitted) failed! 

Does anyone have an idea why this could happen?

Answer 1

pass-remote --auth myusername: mypassword -l

it worked for me ... just everything in one line ... log in plus your team ...

Answer 2

The same thing happened to me, which I did:

First of all, delete the entire transmission in your distribution;

 apt-get remove transmission-daemon 

Secondly, obviously, set the transfer again, but you need to install the daemon transfer and packages, such as the transfer-return, that you will use.

 apt-get install transmission-daemon 

Desactived AUTH:

 nano /etc/transmission-daemon/settings.json 

edit this line:

 rpc-authentication-required: false 

Reboot the process:

 /etc/init.d/transmission-daemon restart/start 

Do the following:

 transmission-remote -l 

If it works, no message will be displayed. Now you use the magnetic link for the test:

 transmission-remote -a 'Magnet link' 

Success Message:

 localhost:9091/transmission/rpc/ responded: "success"

Answer 3

I know this is old, but I did the same stupid thing.

Pay attention to "sudo"

 sudo service transmission-daemon stop 

edit file file.json file

 sudo service transmission-daemon start 

You should also use -auth for each command, so in your case you would put

 transmission-remote --auth myusername:mypassword -DU -c required -p 9091 -w ~/torrents 

Answer 4

Note that --auth must be in front of other options - it was not obvious in the documentation or on the command line!
