There was an upgrade available to the Freenas system about two weeks ago, so I elected for the upgrade. When the system restarted, both my Transmission and Plex plugins were turned off. The Plex plugin restarted as soon as I clicked on the switch (Refer image), but the Transmission refuses to start. I even tried a reboot but no luck.

Am I missing something simple?:confused:

what output do you get when you run 'service transmission onestart' in the transmission jail

Thanks for your response. Here's the output.
looks like you screwed up the permissions of your jail. did you ever change the permission levels or ownership of your jail dataset?
Never do this, only ever change permission levels or ownership of datasets you mount into your jail.

Thanks. Does that mean I'll need to delete this plugin and reinstall?
yes, if you want you could create the new instance of transmission first and copy over your /var/db/transmission directory which would save some of your settings and your current torrents.

Thanks, Joshua. Unfortunately I already deleted the plugin, but I didn't have any torrents to worry about. Thanks again. Hopefully, zI won't have any problem re-installing.:D
