MarkusMcNugen/docker-qBittorrentvpn and .ovpn file

    Hi,

    I am using OMV 6.9.16-1 (Shaitan) and try to install qbittorent following 'MarkusMcNugen/docker-qBittorrentvpn' and the nice Pascal's weblog: https://pled.fr/openmediavault…qbittorrent-avec-openvpn/

    My VPN provider is Mullvad. It provides .ovpn file only for Android platform. For Linux platform it provides 4 configurations files. One of tem is .conf., but no.ovpn file.


    During the qbittorent installation, i had an error message because no .ovpn file was found. Spending a lot of time, at least, I tried to rename the Mullvad .conf file in a .ovpn file.

    It works!


    The installation seems succeed because I have the message: 'TUN/TAP device tun0 opened' and I can use the web interface for qbittorrent.


    But I would like to understand why it runs !! Or it seems to do, may be ?


    Other question: is a there a way to test there is no leak through the VPN?


    Is there anybody who has an idea?


    Thanks in advance

    Didier

    Approved the thread.

    Glad you got it working.


    But you should know that the MarkusMcNugen image is obsolete and no longer maintained. Most of the users here have moved on to other images, with the trigus42/qbittorrentvpn image being the most popular.


    One thing that you should be doing regardless of which image you use is to run a special torrent that tells you what IP address the trackers are seeing as your connecting address. One such torrent is described here:

    I am a long time user of the image haugene/transmission-openvpn, but this image seems to not be currently updated.


    I am now testing the hotio/qbittorrent, but i am getting an issue with the mapping volumes :

    Code
    volumes:
- /<host_folder_config>:/config
- /<host_folder_data>:/data

    in /config i have the folders :


    cache

    config

    data

    |-->BT_backup

    |-->GeoDB

    |-->logs

    |-->rss

    downloads

    wireguard


    the folder /data is not used...


    Any ideas ?

    The formatting of your volume statements is incorrect. They need to have indents like this:


    Code
    volumes:
  - /<host_folder_config>:/config
  - /<host_folder_data>:/data


    Also, are you aware that things like <host_folder_config> are place holders and you need to replace them with real paths on your host?

    Care to explain this one?


    Code
    volumes:
  - ./qbittorrent:/config

    - ./qbittorrent


    are in the OMV docker default folder for Compose files


    I have all my containers this way :
    config files in nvme drive (also docker in this same drive), and the data in a multiple device


    for exemple, Plex :


    volumes:

    - ./config:/config # BACKUP

    - ./transcode:/transcode # BACKUP

    - /symlink_md/Media Library:/data # SKIP_BACKUP


    and Lidarr :


    volumes:

    - ./lidarr/config:/config # BACKUP

    - /symlink_md:/data # SKIP_BACKUP


    Plex and Lidarr are working fine.

    Hi,

    To GDERF.

    I have installed trigus42/qbittorrentvpn as you proposed. It seem's OK . But I have a residual problem by trying to install new plugins

    Even if I used your comment proposing to add a script to install python at the end of my yaml.file after creating an extras folder.

    The new plugins 'are not supported'.

    From the web it seems I am not alone to get this problem. But I didn't find any solutions.

    My qBittorent is v5.0.3.

    Please have you any idea ?

    Thanks in advance.

    Didier

    It's difficult to help if you don't post your yaml file in a code box.
