Thanks for all the suggestions! I switched to qbittorrent and it works nicely for now. The web ui is fine for the little I use it so all good! I'll report if something starts failing again which would indicate another issue with me setup.
I've been very pleased with this qbittorrent docker image which includes two modern web UIs bundled in with it: https://hotio.dev/containers/qbittorrent/
Hello, I use this on since 2-3 year without issues. It restart itself in case of VPN failure, and I didn't notice any issue with transmission. I have 4 runnings in parallels. https://github.com/haugene/docker-transmission-openvpn
I used deluge but it has like a 1000 torrent limit before it starts lagging. Plus there's no search bar.
I really like rutorrent
Maybe you could just try a different Transmission docker image or build your own? Sounds like some weird instability in that particular version.
I wonder what could be the issue here, I use the same image without any issue.
Had trouble with io access thru a nas when the arr move/hardmink the files. Faster disk with a raid5 did the trick. Now it freeze but far less longer. Depend on you configuration I guess
I've been using https://github.com/haugene/docker-transmission-openvpn for years without issue because I could get my weird VPN to work with it (though the latest release seems to be from 12/2023 ...)
If you'd like to stick with transmission, this docker works very well: haugene/transmission-openvpn
I'm not set on transmission, I tried qbittorrent just now and it seems to work for me. But thanks! I anyway use a separate container and network for vpn.
Deluge or qbittorrent. If you use a vpn, binhex images are good.
Im running qbit in docker and haven't had a single issue with it.
Same. Qbittorrent and deluge have given me no issues.
I'll give it a go! Is there a GUI for it? I like to sometimes check the progress live and transmission provides that out of the box.
There's a web interface included that works OTB.
Seems to work very nicely and it's much more responsive than transmission. Great, thanks!
You can also use a custom UI. I recommend VueTorrent.
In fact, using this mod, you can even have Docker download it and keep it up to date. In qBittorrent you just need to change the WebUI location to /vuetorrent.
