Error while access Transmission torrent Client web interface

You may receive the below error while trying to access Transmission torrent Client web interface.

Error:

http://ip:9091

403: Forbidden

Unauthorized IP Address.
Either disable the IP address whitelist or add your address to it.
If you're editing settings.json, see the 'rpc-whitelist' and 'rpc-whitelist-enabled' entries.
If you're still using ACLs, use a whitelist instead. See the transmission-daemon manpage for details.

Solution:

First stop the transmission-daemon.

# /etc/init.d/transmission-daemon stop

The configuration file may found "/var/lib/transmission/.config/transmission-daemon/settings.json"
Edit the settings.json file and change as rpc-whitelist-enabled": false.

Save and exit from  settings.json.

Now start the  transmission-daemon
# /etc/init.d/transmission-daemon start

Now Access the Transmission from Browser http://ip:9091.
