[Support] binhex - qBittorrentVPN

Featured Replies

I'm trying to route my (binhex) Jacket, Sonarr, Radarr containers through the binhex-qbitorrentvpn docker after encountering problems connecting Sonarr and Radarr to Jacket after the latest update.

I'm still having problems connecting to the webUIs. They just don't load. Followed the FAQ. 25 and 26, although I'm still having questions about that. Watched Spaceinvader One's video guide, although that one doesn't seem complete atm.

I included screenshots of my settings from the Jackett and qBittorrent dockers.

 

Jackett:

qBittorrent:

It all seems to run fine?

jackettdocker.png.b2bd907562bd9cceb81ce53d9606ec31.png

 

To get back to the FAQ, Under A25 step 4 it says: "Remove any 'Host Ports' defined." But that does not seem right?
I had to create the ADDITIONAL_PORTS variable in the binhex-qBittorrentvpn docker also. As you can see above I think I got that right.

Not sure what I'm doing wrong here. Must be a silly thing I hope.

  • I rolled back to tag 5.1.1-1-01 which fixed the issue for me. I guess the new update wasn't tested for wireguard connections. Edit the docker container and change "Repository" from binhex/arch-qbitt

  • FWIW, I found this method in Reddit that seemed to work for me until they fix the log bug. But note if you have qbittorrent internet facing, it's a risk.   Add this line under [Preferences]

    Hello! I have been using wireguard successfully for a long time with this container, today though when the container restarted I got the following error: 2025-06-27 10:35:26,490 DEBG 'start-script'

In your jackett screenshot there is a port for 9117, delete it, then try accessing the web UI again, using ≤host IP≥:9117

Thanks for the fast response! Okay, removed the port in the Jacket settings and I'm trying to connect to http://192.168.0.202:9117/, but it still doesn't load. :( "This site can’t be reached"

what is the value for env var LAN_NETWORK for qbittorrentvpn?

The value is currently set at: 192.168.0.0/24. This used to be fine. I tried to change it to: 192.168.0.202/24, but this didn't work either.

that looks fine, what about the browser, have you by accident set it to use a proxy?

No, I don't use a proxy with Chrome. Tried Brave, Edge. All do not connect.

ok can you attach your jackett config file, its located at /config/Jackett/ServerConfig.json

I removed the values in ProxyUsername and ProxyPassword, but the rest of the file I left alone.

ok you shouldn't be using a socks/http proxy as it can cause issues when using a vpn tunnel, set the option in the file as follows:-

 

  "ProxyType": -1,

save the change and restart jackett container.

 

another question too, do you have vlan's in place?, also check firewall for lan blocking.

Made the change in the .json. Still not able to connect.

I don't use a vlan and checked both the firewall in windows and the router, both look fine.

sorry then im currently out of suggestions, all i can say is this does work, i currently have jackett routed through privoxyvpn and i can access the web ui of jackett and sonarr can communicate with jackett, there must be something else blocking, but i dont know what.

 

edit - one last stab in the dark, go to the 'console' of qbittorrentvpn and issue the command 'ip route' and paste it here.

Okay, thanks for your time anyway. Appreciate it. But it is a problem I want to fix. If anyone else has suggestions ... please share.

Hopefully this will help.

In the mean time I tried with binhex-PrivoxyVPN and trying to route it through there. Same result as with binhex-qBittorrentVPN

sadly it doesnt, that all looks correct so the issue is not routing, im out of ideas for now.

Got the WebUI loading working. Supposedly I needed to:

  • add the extra parameter "--net=container:binhex-qbittorrentvpn" (did that)
  • delete my ports on the routed containers (I did, on your suggestion)
  • add them to the qbittorrent container "additional ports" line (I created that and so I did)
  • AND re-create the port in the qbittorent container (and here I failed, idiot like I am)

Seems I looked over that part. I swear I did create them, but I must have deleted those ports at one point after I didn't get it to work at first.

 

I now have the issue of not being able to connect to my indexers from Jackett and connecting to qBittorrent in Radarr and Sonarr, but at least I'm one step closer of solving the problems.


Many thanks for your support and sorry for wasting your precious time. 

 

 

Hello again..

I have a mikrotik router..  and the standard ip range is something like 192.168.88.---- .. So think my port trouble has something to do with the internal network??

im using a regular windows pc. and when typing in ipconfig my default gateway is 192.168.88.1..  The thing is that when i go to my Dhcp server, my settings is 192.168.88.0/24.. I do not know if this helps???

 

regards

Q25. I have recently updated my Docker image for DelugeVPN/PrivoxyVPN/SABnzbdVPN/qBittorrentVPN and can no view the Web UI for the application i am routing through the VPN container, why is this and how can i fix it?.

A25. Due to iptables tightening it is now a requirement that you add the Web UI/API ports for the application you want to route through the VPN to the 'ADDITIONAL_PORTS' env var value for the VPN container, if you have multiple ports then please separate the values with a comma, e.g. 'ADDITIONAL_PORTS' = 1234,5678

 

The other change you will need to do is when defining connections from an application to another application in the same container network (as is the case in this scenario) then you will need to set the host to 'localhost' and NOT the LAN IP address, this is because the applications are now bound to the same network and thus should communicate over 'localhost'.

 


 

If your a noob like me after following @SpaceInvaderOne video titled ‘How to use Privoxy with VPN for Ultimate Privacy when using Media Collection Apps’ here’s a step by step guide with screenshots. I’m sure SpaceInvaderone will provide guidance at some point. But it isn’t always convenient to do so if their life is busy.


Here is a noob version with screen shots for Unraid on what to do to access the web UI’s behind the VPN/Prixoxy after they stopped working in the latest security update from @binhex.
As ADDITIONAL_PORTS' env var value for the VPN container took me 15 minutes to work out 😅


Steps

1. Edit Docker configuration file for client DelugeVPN/PrivoxyVPN/SABnzbdVPN/qBittorrentVPN

2. Find Container Variable with Additional ports, Key 12 for me. 

3. Insert port number(s) for containers you have routing through VPN/Prixoxy.

In my case Radarr 7878, Sonarr 8989, Jackett 9117 and NZBGet 6789 with a comma between each port

4. Click apply to Docker Configuration 


I was then able to access my web UI’s for all the container routed through binhex-qbittorentVPN.

 

There’s also a Q26 for issues accessing the webUI of the the 'Download Client' (e.g. Deluge, rTorrent, qBittorrent, SABnzbd)

Correction on network type

5. Next open and each container that you have routed through the VPN/Prixoxy Conatiner.

In my case that’s Radarr, Sonarr, Jackett and NZBGet.

Edit each container configuration and change the network type from none to Host.

dont do this, the network for containers you want to route through the vpn network should have a network type of 'none' see Q24. for how to route containers through:- https://github.com/binhex/documentation/blob/master/docker/faq/vpn.md

Hi @binhex I have managed to get all my containers talking to each other in your container now (Q26) and can now access all my containers WebUI's and they are all talking to each other.

 

Just wanted to say a MASSIVE thank you for your work, time and patience, it is HUGELY appreciated!

Oh thanks. I’ve corrected it by removing that step.

I confused network type with host.

 

Thanks for updating the container to maintain security 👍

I know it's OT, but have to ask anyway since Transdroid has been discussed here previously:

My Transdroid client now completely stopped working with qbt 4.3.3.

After installing the TD interim version (as a result of the breaks in in qbt 4.2.0) from time to time the error message "Access denied (Please check your settings)" appeared. Brief reload (pulling screen down) and everything worked fine again until the next time.

Now (for about two days or so) the reload does not work anymore.

Has anyone experienced anything similar?

I am on Unraid 6.90, qbt 4.3.3 and TD 2.5.19.

 

Thanks, everyone.
