If you are experiencing issues with access your Transmission client, there are a few quick solutions you can check before contacting support.

1) Login to your shell and run the following command:

ps x

2) This will show all the running processes under your username. Find the PID that is associated with transmission-daemon and run the following command (if the process isn't listed, skip to step #4):

kill -9 PID

3) Recheck your process list to make sure the process has disappeared.

ps x

4) When the process is no longer listed, run the following command to start your client:

transmission-daemon

If you have many torrents loaded, it make take the client a few minutes to broadcast on your port.
