Home Assistant addon : qbittorrent (supports openvpn & smb mounts)

wilsonlspacheco · May 24, 2021, 9:10pm

Hey @alexbelgium, sorry for my late reply…! I tried this your last suggestion/idea, add “route-nopull” to my .ovpn file and change connection in Advanced Options to “tun0”, and now i can access to my qbittorrent remotly ! This is the best solutions ! Many Thks! you are the best !

alexbelgium · May 25, 2021, 4:53am

Perfect! Thanks for the feedback. I’ll add this as an option so everyone can use that if necessary

@wilsonlspacheco

New version : 14.3.5.99202105022253-7365-063844ed4ubuntu20.04.1-ls133-dev2

New feature : option openvpn_alternative_mode added. This boolean activates an alternative openvpn connection mode that binds only qbittorrent but not the webui to the vpn. This is allows to reach webui from an external network (thanks @wilsonlspacheco for testing!) but there is a slight risk of decreased performance. Please let me know if this should be the default, instead of the alternative.

No problem @alexbelgium, my pleasure !

Hello! Ive got problems finding my mounted directory. In my logs it says
[21:49:12] INFO: … //192.168.1.xxx/Seagate successfully mounted to /mnt/Seagate with options

But when i use terminal and cd into/mnt and do ”ls -a” There is nothing?

What am i missing?

alexbelgium · May 26, 2021, 8:22pm

Hi, this is a normal behavior due to how docker works. Mounted folders are only mounted in the container - the terminal is in a separate container (of the host). However, if you install portainer, you can have a console inside the container and see the mounted folder.

That’s why each of my addon has a separate mount option for smb drives.

@adamoutler has another solution : an addon that can execute the mount code at addon startup : see here ✔️🏃Run On Startup.d

So if you don’t log in the container with ssh or portainer, you need to trust it to work and go see in your smb disk files appearing after download.

Need help. I cant enable incomplete folder. Whenever I check “Keep incomplete torrenet in” and save. It become uncheck the next time. It also greyed out on the path field.
What is the work around ?
Nothing on the logs, I dont use network mount.

alexbelgium · June 28, 2021, 5:10am

@tyjtyj Hi! That’s strange, I have this option enabled and it works fine, including changing it from the UI… Do you use the latest version of the addon? (at one point I had added temp folder mgt in addon options, but removed it afterwards)

Some options :

you can try setting PUID / GUID to 0 and 0 in addon options (perhaps I made a permission issue)
you can try to set it manually by editing the qbittorrent.conf file in /config/qBittorrent /qBittorrent.conf and add

Downloads\TempPath=/data/incomplete/
Downloads\TempPathEnabled=true

Thanks !

alexbelgium · June 28, 2021, 5:46am

And have you checked that the folder exists also?

Thanks!

alexbelgium · June 28, 2021, 5:56am

Hi, one last thing : actually I’ve tested again and noticed there is a bug in the alternative webui VueTorrent. Are you using it?

Enabling or Disabling the option in VueTorrent seems to work (as can be checked with the flag in /config/qBittorrent/qBittorrent.conf Downloads\TempPathEnabled=true that goes from true to false) but it remains unchecked in VueTorrent webui.

If you disable VueTorrent (last tab in VueTorrent options), the normal ui seem to correctly show the incomplete folder info

tyjtyj · June 28, 2021, 6:03am

Managed to edit the config file and restart. it seems to work although it still grey out

I will leave it as it is as i dont change this often

More questions
Ingress hardcoded to vuetorrent UI ?
If i go by ip, i get original qt ui.
if i go by hass ingress, i got vuetorrent web UI

Custom UI set to blank.

Where do I set de webui password ? (and remove the default admin user)

alexbelgium · June 28, 2021, 11:04am

Hi ! Exactly, VueTorrent is hard-coded in ingress as it was much easier at one time to make it work, and it seemed to me like a nicer option for smaller screen devices such as phones. However the webui option that can be defined from the addon options only impact when going to the direct url.

If you’d prefer it otherway I can check but at the time it allowed ingress to work

Hi @piotr ! To change the username you need to go in the addon options. To change the password, I’ve just seen that there is no possibility in VueTorrent webui (the default one). So you need to disable the optional webui in the addons options, go to http://URL:port, go in the tab “tools”, “options”, “webui” and change your password there.

The reason to do that is that password can’t be changed through manual modification of the qbittorrent.conf, but username can. So lazy people can use a strong username and keep the default password and still be safe… Or you can disable ui port and do everything with ingress, which is perfectly safe

alexbelgium · June 28, 2021, 11:37am

@lordzid Hi, I suppose it is in supervisor log during installation ? Is that the whole error message? I would have expected that the error message would be a bit longer to provide the cause for the return 100 ?

Thanks! mmh… not easy… from what I read with this message on google it could mainly a desynchronized clock, a lack of space, or an issue with the sources… I’ll try to look again a bit later. If anyone has an idea don’t hesitate to chime in

lordzid · June 28, 2021, 11:53am

I want to note that the same error occurs with your other addons. transmission and nextcloud I also could not install

tyjtyj · June 29, 2021, 12:58am

Thanks for the clarification, I thought i did something wrong. Thanks for the add-ons. it s a great one. I been using docker for many different torrent client, finally this one works with ha.
