Describe your issue

Hey all,

Since yesterday (May, 19), around 5pm my completed download are automatically removed. The complete folder /transmission/completed is wiped. I checked the journalctl, but I did not find anything in particular.
I removed Transmission and installed it again, and it happened once more.

I am lost. Did not find any open tickets in Transmission’s github.

I realize that, phpsessionclean happen “close” to this event:

Seems weird, but I have no clue what is happening.

Finally the log from Transmission: hastebin
