Current Behavior
- Docker compose succeeds
- Docker logs show the use of the override environment variables as specified in my compose file
- exec into container and verified settings.json contains the paths specified in my compose file
- Examine settings via the Transmission web GUI and see the download directory is set to /data/completed
- Examine settings via the Transmission web GUI and see the incomplete directory enabled and set to /data/torrents/incomplete
- Attempts to change this setting in the GUI fail to persist
Expected Behavior
- Ability to override the download-dir setting using the Docker compose environment
- Settings in Transmission GUI download directory to be /data/torrents/completed
- Ability to edit the download directory to a valid path via the Transmission GUI
How have you tried to solve the problem?
- Tried the dev branch with the same results
- Tried mounting my local folder to /data instead of /data/torrents but the download directory persists to /data/completed regardless of what I set in the override
