Can I install Homarr on a Raspberry Pi?
Seems like homarr might be able to reach qbit, it could be that they might not be on the same network (assuming that synology works similarly to docker networks)
Yes this is my thoughts as I am using qbit with Gluetun for vpn on docker on the synology but not sure how to get around it and not effect vpn
Using the same setup
qbit behind gluetun
Hi, actually qbit is a bit capricious. You need to disable CSRF in qbit's settings
also qbit temporarily ban some IP's for wrong credentials so you need to disable it temporarly or add homarr's address to the whitelist
yes i have done that already
how do you mean add Homarr to gluetun network?
Maybe you need to, but that's not what I'm saying.
qBitTorrent bans some IP after wrong credentials.
in qbit's settings
Well with qbit behind a vpn, you need to open the port that qbit uses on the VPN itself
To make sure, after disabling bans in qbit, do a curl/wget from homarr's shell pointing to the qbit instance
You can access normally from your pc, right?
yes correct
Let me check my setup
thank you
So I have the gluetun VPN connected to the same network as my reverse proxy and homarr
ok how do I do that lol
I also have same issue with pi-hole but that is running host network on same machine
One thing at a time kek
So do you use a reverse proxy?
no i dont i have cloudflare tunnel setup on docker
Cool cool
Well all you need to do is put homarr and gluetun on the same network
If homarr is on another machine'
you can try to do
all my dockers are on Synology
I don't use synology, so I can tell you how other than you need to give gluetun and homarr on the same network or "host"
i have added it to gluetun network as well as it did not allow host and I am getting this in logs ERROR Ping timed out for app with id 'faca0467-5758-45ce-a083-09c7cd6ad7c3' in config 'default' -> url: http://10.10.0.240:8081)
ERROR Unexpected response: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND pi.hole
Hmmmm I thought qbit was 8080
i changed it as port conflict
On the gluetun?
Yea, that wont work then
I tried adding another app behind the VPN and changed the port and it didn't work
yes gluetun and qbit run on stack in pointainer
If you can
Try moving the item on 8080 to another port
so that qbit can use that port
just changed it but the same

The last two things I can think of is either you need to open port because UFW (firewall) can block it
how do i open port in qbit or homarr mate
Well you opened the port, but the firewall might be blocking it on your machine
ok how can i do that?
In ubuntu you can run sudo ufw allow 8080/tcp
still the same as pihole i can click on it and it opens with no issue but wont show green of info in widgets
done qbit torrent i managed to edit config for qbit to add server url from cloudflare then added url to homarr and bingo
just need to do pihole now
