Comment 18 for bug 530193

I am also affected by this bug. I have made all .torrent files, download, and configuration files/folders owned by debian-transmission:debian-transmission, but the problems still persist. While others have suggested running $transmission -f or $transmission-daemon -f for debugging, I can't produce the same results since I am running transmission-daemon as a service. Is there any way I can do something roughly equivalent to $sudo service transmission -f start? If only it accepted flags.
