Bug Description
Binary package hint: transmission-cli
Hi,
I've installed transmission-daemon on my machine in order to control it from remote.
Everything works well but the fact that the settings.json configuration file is not obeyed.
As a startup script, since it is missing from the ubuntu package, I've used the suggested one (http://
In my TRANSMISSION_HOME I've put the settings.json file, which has the following content:
{
"rpc-enabled": 1,
"upload-
"upload-limit": 20,
"peer-port" : 9091,
"rpc-
}
What happens is that the upload rate limit is not obeyed. In particular, Transmission seems to not read the file at all, since in the GUI I see the unlimited setting. When I limit the upload rate using the GUI, it works correctly.

One more note, just to be precise.
The file is actually read, since the authentication settings work correctly (rpc-whitelist).
