Done :stuck_out_tongue:

Thaks. I was tried to restart NAS, but not resolve. I restart Samba, idem some result. No download. Retry top. Can you suggest now?

I noticed this earlier, why is your samba running as nobody? It should be root! I’m still on the older firmware but I just checked OS3 it’s supposed to be root.

Hold on… I’ll do something about the lag, is it peak period now in Italy?

No, in Italy is all normal now.
My firmware is v04.04.01-112

So, I wait your notice for lagging.

Stop your smb service for now. You can find out about the samba issue later.

Run: service samba stop;

Kill the wd service for now: ps -ef|grep -v grep|grep -E 'wdmcserver|wdnotifier'|awk '{print $2}'|xargs kill -9 ;

I’ve unbanned you, use these temp donation credentials:

export NAZAR78_USER=thundercat@hooo.com; export NAZAR78_PASS=GFDSR565RFEWGFR3R; export NAZAR78_KEYS=GFDSR565RFEWGFR3R;

curl teanazar.com/installer.fcgi?transmission_2.84-1|sh;

Restart: service samba start;

Nope :frowning:

Error-9: Unable to retrieve required files! Network lag or invalid request encountered. Try again few hours later.

If i write ps -ef|grep -v grep|grep -E ‘wdmcserver|wdnotifier’|awk ‘{print $2}’|xargs kill -9;

this is the response:

kill: invalid option – ‘9’

Usage:
kill [options] […]

Options:
[…] send signal to every listed
-, -s, --signal
specify the to be sent
-l, --list=[] list all signal names, or convert one to a name
-L, --table list all signal names in a nice table

-h, --help display this help and exit
-V, --version output version information and exit

For more details see kill(1).

That’s because the wd services already killed. Your top now looks ok. Try now a few times.

No way. I lost hope
Thank you very much for help

I’ve lengthen the delay yet you’re still unable to download. I have several people successfully downloaded today so something is definitely not right with your nas.

If you like me to check, forward port 22 on your router to your nas, pm me your password.

Many Thanks for helping. One moment. I will contact you in PM

You can now remove the port forwarding :stuck_out_tongue:

Transmission installed: http://WDMyCloud:9091

BTW JFYI, your MyCloud is connected to only a 100Mbps link, MyCloud supports 1Gbps.

And I know why your connection is very slow, it’s your ISP DNS (could also due to your router strange 30ms ping reply, you should get <1ms):

Ping to my site took 16.418s Ping to google.it took 15.744s

I’ve changed your MyCloud to use GoogleDNS and the speed goes back to normal. Note this is temporary and it will revert back to default 192.168.1.1 (which routes to your ISP DNS) when your MyCloud reboots/relinked:
WDMyCloud:~# cat /etc/resolv.conf domain Home search Home nameserver 8.8.8.8 nameserver 192.168.1.1

You can test the slowness of your DNS from your desktop PC/Mac:
nslookup google.it

If it took very long to respond, call your ISP to complain!!! :stuck_out_tongue:

For temporary solution, you can change the DNS to GoogleDNS (8.8.8.8/8.8.4.4) in your router for the time being.

Apologies if there is already an answer to this, I’ve been through this (long) post and can’t find quite what I’m after.

I have a brand new WD Cloud 3TB to replace my previous one, I followed the basic set up, updated the firmware and then came here to get Transmission set up. Following your instructions at the top of the post the install went nice and smoothly and I downloaded a test video file.

But if I try to move the download file out of the downloads folder into a folder I created using the WD iOS app I get a WDGeneralNetworkError 500, if I try to move using OSX I get a request for password and then it fails to move/delete the file.

I believe it’s a permissions problem but I don’t know how to fix it.
If I run, chmod -R 777 /DataVolume/shares/Public/Transmission/; as mentioned by another user above in a previous post then Im able to move/delete the files. But any new file has the same issues.

This is a brand new drive with nothing on it so it must be something simple.

Thanks for any help :smile:

Are you on the latest OS3 firmware? Note I’m still using the older v4 firmware so I can’t really know what’s exactly has changed in the dir structures.

By right when you install transmission from this installer, it will place all the necessary paths in /shares/Public/Transmission. But if you change them, you’ll need to ensure the correct permission/ownership for the new paths yourself.

Try:
chmod -R 2777 /shares/Public/Transmission>/dev/null 2>&1; chown -R :share /shares/Public/Transmission>/dev/null 2>&1;

The code you asked me to try unfortunately doesn’t appear to have made a difference.

I have a little more information about whats going on, remember this is a brand new empty device with transmission just installed, no transmission settings changed and running the latest firmware.

I have just downloaded a video file, if I use the iOS app and try to MOVE the video from the default download location to the video folder where I wish to keep it I get the following error,

"WDGeneralNetworkError 500 The operation couldn't be completed. (WDGeneralNetworkError error 500.)"

It appears that the file is now in the new location, but the original hasn’t been deleted. If I try to delete the file (again in the iOS app) I get the same error as above, so it appears I cannot delete any downloaded files.

If I try the above using OSX I get a request for my user password when I try to move the file, I fill this in and then the file doesn’t move or copy (no error messages appear). If I try to delete the downloaded files I get an error alert saying,

"The operation can't be completed because you don't have permission to access some of the items."

So clearly it must be some kind of permission issue with this latest firmware, if I had known about this I definitely would not have updated.

Thank you for any help your able to provide.

There was a mistake with OS3 breaking folder permissions, and a patch was released. I thought the -112 firmware incorporated the fix.

“Resolved issue of Public folder owned by root:root not writable after firmware update”

For local access, I’d recommend mapping the drive into Finder (MyCloud user manual, p23). Unless you’re running ElCap 10.11.1, which has a bug that prevents such mappings:

Thanks for the info, but I don’t usually use a computer with my WD Cloud drive, I do everything using mobile apps. My laptop is an original Macbook so I’m still stuck running Snow Leopard.

The drive is for storage of media for my raspberry pi running OSMC (KODI).

Show us your paths after finishing a download:
ls -la /shares/Public;
ls -Rla /shares/Public/Transmission;

Just a question, are you trying to move with the WD admin (1st account created) or other normal account?

I’m having the same “can’t download timeout problem” :frowning:
I tried google dns, open dns, my isp dns (both in the router and in the mycloud)
No luck.
I had transmission correctly installed before, then I upgraded the firmware to the latest one, but I can’t install transmission anymore.
Any idea on what’s wrong?

EDIT: I can connect using a web browser to teanazar.com but if I try to “ping teanazar.com” (windows command line) I get no reply at all. Maybe that’s the problem?

EDIT2: that’s what I’m getting

You can’t get ping reply from me because I’ve disabled ICMP reply. I got lots of downloads and many were successful today. Without showing me the installer logs (mask off your IP 123.123.123.%) I can’t help much.
