(resolved) Kodi + Transmission Installation Problems Topic is solved

[ynsymnr]

Hey there;
I tryed to install Kodi together with Transmission. Followed this http://dietpi.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=7 guide
Kodi is selected for autoboot.
But Kodi cant start, getting below message

boot/dietpi/login: line74: kodi-standalone: command not found

Seems there's problem on Kodi installation.

Besides, also have below message for FTP server
FAIL startpart: service(S) returned failure: proftpd ... failed

Couldnt even try tranmisson hopefully it works.

Your helps will be appreciated

Pay attention: I'm linux noob

Hi ynsymnr,

Thanks for the report. I need to get some extra details on your system.

Please could you complete a DietPi-BugReport:
- run dietpi-bugreport
- Follow the onscreen instructions
- Paste your Reference CODE in your next post.

Kind Regards,
Dan

Hi Ynsymnr,

I've found your bug report. It appears Kodi and Transmission are not installed on your system.

I think you may have pressed ESC during your software selection, please try the following:
- type dietpi-software and press enter
- select "DietPi Optimized Software" and press enter
- Use the up and down arrow keys to find Kodi and Transmission from the list.
- Press the space bar to select the software for install. It should be a [*][/color] when its selected.
- When you have selected both Kodi and Transmission, press the Enter key (not esc)
- Navigate to "Go Start Install" and select "Ok" to begin.

After the reboot, Kodi and Transmission will now be installed.

Hi Dan;

Your suggestion did work.
I had also problem for ProFTP but solved it.
NOw I should configure both Transmission and FTP parameters.

Thanks a lot

Hİ,

Now I have another issue.
I would like to configure transmission for downloads and web access.
But I cant give default sudo comments which transmission using.
It sais "-bash: sudo: command not found"

Also, I need to generate a folder for downloads which looking to external hdd.
So that means I need to mount my external hdd as well.

Transmission is automatically configured, setup and optimized for you. Simply go here for the details.

During 1st run of DietPi:
There is a prompt to ask you if you would like to use a dedicated USB HDD. If you said yes, the download folder is /mnt/usb_1/downloads.
If on the other hand you didnt, you will need to rewrite a DietPi image and select "Yes" during 1st run setup. DietPi will then install transmission to use your USB HDD for downloads.

Thanks for answer Dan.
Yes, I said no that option without knowledge of it's purpose.
