Both host and guest are Arch linux on 6.8.6-arch1-1 kernel.
On the host, we have an external drive/dev/sdb mounted to /mnt/sdb, The mount is owned by transmission:transmission.
On the guest we have a sshfs mount of host:/mnt/sdb to guest:/mnt/sdb (Shared folders not working)
Permissions are identical on both sides and uid/gid for transmission are the same value.
On the guest, /var/lib/transmission/.config/tranmission-remote/settings.json sets the download directory to /mnt/sdb/transmission/downloads
I can add a magnet link through the web-ui. The torrent is started, metadata retrieved, but then we get the error :
The systemd service file doesn't look very interesting. Am I correct to assume your external drive does not have a partition table but a single flat partition? Can you manually write anything in that folder from your VirtualBox guest environment as user transmission? If no, then at least it is not a transmission problem.
I can create and delete files and directories in the /mnt/sdb/transmission directory where 'I' is stephen, a member of transmission group.
Something I forgot to say: the .config..torrents and .config..resume directories are symlinks to /mnt/sdb/transmission/torrents and /mnt/sdb/transmission/resume. I do this because I want to version the config but not the data. Problem?

You really need to test this from your VirtualBox environment as user transmission. Create /mnt/sdb/transmission/downloads as transmission, chmod 777 it, and let transmission-daemon(?) run again.
.config..torrents and .config..resume don't mean anything to me.
Under Debian the two folders resume and torrents are located in /var/lib/transmission-daemon/.config/transmission-daemon which also seems weird but works.
What is the issue?
I have a VirtualBox setup for torrents like this:
Both host and guest are Arch linux on
6.8.6-arch1-1
kernel.On the host, we have an external drive
/dev/sdb
mounted to/mnt/sdb
, The mount is owned bytransmission:transmission
.On the guest we have a sshfs mount of
host:/mnt/sdb
toguest:/mnt/sdb
(Shared folders not working)Permissions are identical on both sides and uid/gid for transmission are the same value.
On the guest,
/var/lib/transmission/.config/tranmission-remote/settings.json
sets the download directory to/mnt/sdb/transmission/downloads
I can add a magnet link through the web-ui. The torrent is started, metadata retrieved, but then we get the error :
transmission is started by root through a systemd service in /lib/systemd/system/transmssion.service
Which application of Transmission?
transmission-remote
Which version of Transmission?
transmission-cli 4.0.5-1
