/watch does not pick up new .torrent files

Hey, I cannot get transmission to start downloading new torrents when .torrent files are added to /watch.

Here is a copy of my docker-compose.yml which is in an empty folder entitled plex:

version: “2”
services:
transmission:
image: linuxserver/transmission
container_name: transmission
environment:
- PUID=501
- PGID=20
- TZ=Europe/London
- TRANSMISSION_WEB_HOME=/combustion-release/ #optional
volumes:
- ./config:/config
- ./downloads:/downloads
- ./watch:/watch
ports:
- 9091:9091
- 51413:51413
- 51413:51413/udp
restart: unless-stopped

Steps to reproduce:

  1. docker-compose up
  2. Drag .torrent file into /Users/jsager/plex/watch
  3. http://localhost:9091/transmission/web/ displays no downloading
  4. docker-compose restart
  5. Transmission starts downloading .torrent file …

Any help/advice would help. Thanks in advance
