Using alpine-qbittorrent-openvpn instead of deluge

[SteynGuelen]

Hi,

I prefer to use qBittorrent over Deluge. Also, the setup of openvpn/deluge is quite complicated and prone to failure.

Therefore, I used the repo alpine-qbittorrent-openvpn instead of deluge/openvpn. My setup is:

alpine-qbittorrent-openvpn:
    volumes:
      - ${ROOT}/media/downloads:/downloads
      - ${ROOT}/config/qbittorrent-openvpn:/config
      - "/etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro"
    environment:
      - OPENVPN_PROVIDER=PIA
      - OPENVPN_CONFIG=netherlands
      - OPENVPN_USERNAME=[redacted]
      - OPENVPN_PASSWORD=[redacted]
      - PUID=${PUID} # default user id, defined in .env
      - PGID=${PGID} # default group id, defined in .env
      - LAN=192.168.0.0/16
    ports:
      - "8080:8080"
    cap_add:
      - NET_ADMIN
    image: guillaumedsde/alpine-qbittorrent-openvpn:latest 

I used PIA as VPN, for other VPNs please refer to the alpine-qbittorrent-openvpn page.

This might help other people as well, that have issues with deluge/openvpn.

I'm trying to use this image also, but I keep getting star emojis in my titles and then sonarr can't find the file to copy after it's complete? Have you seen that happening to you and know a fix? Everything I've seen says upgrade sonarr to v3 and qbittorrent to v4

Yes, I had the same problem as well. Switching over to Sonarr v3 solved most of my issues.

I still had a few issues with permissions etc, switching over to transmission-openvpn solved all of this at once. My final setup is then Sonarr v3 with transmission-openvpn.
