BREAKING CHANGE : I’ve decided to revert to the initial upstream image, apologies for this whole incovenience. After receiving mostly constructive (but also negative) feedbacks I have decided it was just not worth it to implement a new upstream image supposed to prevent ip leak for openvpn, plus wireguard support, and decided to just restore my own code. I’ve still kept qbit_manage, and will perhaps implement wireguard in the future but with my own code. As the databases were migrated for users to the new config locations, I’ve decided to keep it like that. It is more sustainable as HA is pushing in this direction and allows to backup the config with the addon (which was not the case previously).
ACTION (preferred) : Please restore a backup prior to the versions containing wireguard_openvpn in the name, then update (as was mentioned in the 4.6.2-5wireguard_openvpn changelog asking a full backup prior to update). This will make sure all your options are kept and you don’t need to reconfigure
IF NO BACKUP : You’ll need to update directly, but you’ll need to reconfigure the addon (in theory the database should be kept)
I’ve been having problems recently. But have reinstalled the addon since then and added my PIA ovpn file and credentials to the configuration. However, the addon is not working and I’m not making any progress reading the logs… I’ve added my log below.
I guess the most important errors are
s6-rc: fatal: unable to take locks: Resource busy
if: fatal: unable to spawn s6-test: No such file or directory
nginx: [emerg] bind() to 172.30.33.5:8099 failed (98: Address in use)
Is this a problem with the OpenVPN configuration?

Dears,
Im trying to configure OpenVPN client in this addon and I have 2 questions:
Im receiving this error and all my files are in the proper folder /addon_configs/db21ed7f_qbittorrent\openvpn
2024-01-16 15:20:49 us=193435 WARNING: cannot stat file ‘client.key’: No such file or directory (errno=2)
Options error: --key fails with ‘client.key’: No such file or directory (errno=2)
Options error: Please correct these errors.
Use --help for more information.
is it possible to upgrade the Openvpn client to 2.5?
Thank you Alex for your answer!!! I need one clarification, which is the work directory of this addon? /config/openvpn/ or /addon_configs/db21ed7f_qbittorrent/openvpn?
I think you have a script to copy the content from one folder to another (I think) have all my files in the both folders just in case…hehehe
This is my my ovpn config for paths:
ca /config/openvpn/ca.crt
cert /config/openvpn/client.crt
2024-01-16 18:10:51 us=196386 WARNING: cannot stat file ‘client.key’: No such file or directory (errno=2)
Options error: --key fails with ‘client.key’: No such file or directory (errno=2)
Options error: Please correct these errors.
Use --help for more information.
Hi, actually both are the same : it’s how homeassistant works. In the add-on itself, the config folder is mapped to /config, but when accessing it from Filebrowser it is mapped to /addon_configs/xxx-qbittorrent
Are you sure there is no reference to a key file in your ovpn? As I don’t have a --key reference in the code and it works for other vpns so i’m wondering if this is something specific to your vpn?
Glad it works!!! One day I’ll look at wireguard also but it seems very challenging to implement as it requires to make a change to sysctl system that is not exposed in HAos
I have a question on this addon. I see that there is an option to use OpenVPN at a container level, and requires an openvpn connection to start. Does it also act as a killswitch? I.e., if the connection were to drop, would Qbittorrent disconnect and stop, or attempt to reconnect through the regular network interfaces?
Hi, in theory it should stop indeed, but I’m not a super openvpn expert. I’ve added a second layer of security that checks external ip regularly and stops the connection if it detects that the vpn is not working. However, there is no foolproof systems!
I’m unable to add torrents from the provided search engine. I’ve tried to add several torrents but they don’t appear in the download page. Is it a known bug?
I started noting this several months ago, but once every x attempts the torrent would appear and start downloading. Now it doesn’t work at all.
Running latest version of qbittorrent and Home Assistant Core.
Greetings to all.
MB, I’m a bad finder, but every day when I add a new torrent to download, every time the default download path goes back to the default path that I save in download options, it resets there too. MB this happened after updates, can I hardcode these settings or something like that???
P.S. yep im added to HA sharefolder where i whant to store my downloads.
That’s strange are you saying that the addon option resets itself to this? The addon aligns with the addon options savepath by default to ensure adequate permissions
BREAKING CHANGE : I’ve decided to revert to the initial upstream image, apologies for this whole incovenience. After receiving mostly constructive (but also negative) feedbacks I have decided it was just not worth it to implement a new upstream image supposed to prevent ip leak for openvpn, plus wireguard support, and decided to just restore my own code.
