Can't find settings.json in Transmission

So I'm at the step where I have to change the umask setting to "0" in settings.json.

But this happens.

Code:

root@transmission_1:/ # ls -l usr/pbi/transmission-amd64/etc/transmission/home 
total 0
root@transmission_1:/ #

There's nothing in that folder.

When I use the "edit" command with settings.json, it creates a new file.

I had already made all the necessary changes to the GUI config, both in Freenas and Transmission.

I'm not sure where else this file could be...

You no longer need to change that setting from the commandline. You can change it in the transmission configuration menu, which is in the left panel of the FreeNAS WebUI. Set permissions to 777.

Also, this file is now located in /var/db/transmission. But, like I said, no need to edit directly now.

Thanks, I've been trying for hours to edit this file, only to finally realize it's not even in the home directory.
