Error: More than one torrent client matched data directory #15

Trying to migrate from uTorrent to Transmission. iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2009) Mac OS 10.13.6 (17G13033)

I made aliases for the source and destination as suggested in an older thread: ./BtMigrate --source uTorrent --source-dir=/tmp/bt-src --target-dir=/tmp/bt-dst

Result:

[2020-Jun-06 18:35:35.895159] [I] Source: uTorrent ("/Users/xxx/Library/Application Support/uTorrent") [2020-Jun-06 18:35:35.895473] [E] Error: More than one torrent client matched data directory

Same thing if I use the full paths instead of aliases. What causes this? (I've double-checked and the links work fine)

Try specifying target explicitly, i.e. passing --target Transmission or --target TransmissionMac.

It worked! Thank you. Should've done this years ago lol
