Transmission Won't Move Downloaded Files

Post by versethekeg »

Hi,

I have a NAS that is capable of serving both SAMBA and NFS. On my NUC I have installed Linux Mint Cinnamon. I have setup a share using FSTAB that points to a root directory folder and configured Transmission to use this folder

Incomplete downloads go here
\\x.x.x.x\download\@incomplete

Completed downloads go here
\\x.x.x.x\download\

Problem is, once the transmission finishes the seed it doesn't move the files from incomplete. I know that transmission is capable of moving the file because I can rightclick on it and manually move it to the download folder so I'm really confused as to what's going on here, if it were permissions based then wouldn't transmission give me an error along the lines of 'you don't have permission to move this to over there?.

I'm a Linux newb but have spent the better part of 2 days trying different things, assistance is appreciated. BTW, I removed transmission server off my NAS because it hogs to much of my NAS's CPU RAM usage, is only an ARM processor after all.
