Does your VPN not require any username or password?
It looks like you have pretty much the same issue as me. Look up several posts, and see what binhex suggested for me to fix, maybe it will apply to you as well?

I add the qbittorrent container running for month, then the overall speed of my torrents decreased (4Mbps).

 

Now when I start a new it is stalling for a few minutes (was almost instant before) and they are downloading really slowly. 

Surfshark VPN does not support port forwarding, so your speeds will generally be slower, my advice would be switch to another provider, PIA (easy life) or Mullvad, both of which support port forwarding.

Hello,

Ever since version 4.3.6 I've been getting random "errored" torrents while downloading. Some finish without a problem, others just get errored and I'm forced to recheck them so they can finish. Sometimes they error more than once. Everything is fine on version 4.3.6, but it happens on all versions since. I understand this problem probably has nothing to do with the container, but perhaps someone knows what could be causing this. Maybe I need to change some setting? Thanks.

you got a LOT of remote entries in there!, you sure you need all of them?, keep in mind each hostname will have to be resolved, and each one could contain multiple ip addresses, so expect a long startup time:-

remote se-sto-017.mullvad.net 1194
remote se-sto-009.mullvad.net 1194
remote se-sto-010.mullvad.net 1194

my advice is to leave this as a 2 or 3 entries only, then repost your log.

I just pulled over the set of Linux OpenVPN files that Mullvad generated. Should I be editing those files somehow? Sorry for the noobiness on this but how do I get rid of the extra entries?

i would do based on how many entries there are in there.

simply open the file you placed in /config/openvpn/<file with ovpn extension> with something like notepad++/atom/vscode and remove all but 3 of the 'remote' lines in the file, then save and restart the container.

I see in the qbittorrent settings that I must enable https to be able to use magnet links. Looking at the https setting it appears that all I would need to do is add a self signed certificate to the app. Before I do this I wanted to post and see if this would effect the docker/app in any way?

im using http and magnet links with qbittorrent with no issue, what makes you think you need https for magnets?

Magnet links haven't worked for me at all.

 

 

I noticed in the tools menu there is a setting to enable magnet links but if I select it I get a popʉp showing that https must be used.

just to be clear are you talking about registering magnet links for your web browser or simply copy and pasting magnet links via 'file/add torrent link/<paste magnet into 'Download Torrents from their URLs or Magnet links' field>' (this works every time for me).

 

edit - magnet links sent from prowlarr to qbittorrent also work.

This^^^
 

Hasnt ever worked for me, the app just ignored it, until I tested it just now of course.🤨🤨

 

Now it works fine.🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️😁

 

I almost never need to use it so it’s possible that it’s been working for some time and I never noticed.

lol, glad its working now :-).

Hoping to get some help, sorry in advance for any missing details

 

As of about a month ago, my qbit vpn container loses network connectivity.

If I curl ifconfig.io from the container's console, I get a unresolved address error.

 

If I restart the container, it works again for a few days til it stops again. 

 

Im guessing theres some drop out on the VPN side, but theres nothing in the logs that look like an error to me. 
Not sure where to look for the cause.

 

Thanks in advance!

you really need to have DEBUG turned on (set to true) when the issue happens and then post the supervisord.log file for me to analyse exactly what the cause is.

Is there a way to add more then one OpenVPN file to the docker and have the VPN connection cycle through them? Like my VPN has a heap of servers all over the place I can connect to. I have it connected to one place (as the instructions)... but I was wondering if there is a way to download more than one openvpn file and place it in that directory and have the docker cycle through them somehow?

Scroll down to Q20.

bummer so "Note Multiple OpenVPN configuration files is NOT supported, only multi remote lines as shown above." : (

What are you trying to achieve? Having multiple entries will allow qbittorrent to switch servers if the current one goes down.

Hey guys weird question. I am running 3 docker containers of binhex-Qbittorrentvpn and they all work fine. The only thing is I can't log into all 3 at the same time in the same browser window. I'll log into one and open into another tab and log into the second. Then when I go to look at the previous tab the client has frozen and at the bottom it says "qbittorrent client is unreachable." I have the webports mapped as 8091, 8092, 8093.

 

Works fine if I open a separate incognito window or different browser.

My qbittorrent client is unable to generate a PIA token. I am getting the following error.

I have updated to the most recent version and it still persists. I have tried going to the URL in firefox and received an error saying that the page in longer there. 

Hey guys,

I'm having trouble setting up the qbittorrentvpn contrainer. Whenever I set strict portforwarding to enabled i can't access the webUI, but when it is disabled i can. When i checked the logs it gave the this error:
Unable to successfully download PIA json to generate token from URL 'https://privateinternetaccess.com/gtoken/generateToken'

Didn't get this error when it was disabled.

The anwser is probably simple but I can't figure out what im doing wrong. Anyone have any idea on how to fix this?
