Hi all, i’m having issues configuring prowlarr to use the qbit torrent downloader. I have everything setup in a docker container as such:

I can open localhost:4666 in firefox and see the qbit web interface. When i go to the prowlarr interface and try to connect to it the field for the adress goes red and says: unable eto connect tot qBittorrent. The logs say:

I’ve tried looking for help online but i haven’t found much so some help would be appreciated.

Thank you!

      Usecase is adding indexers to prowlarr and then prowlarr can grab a torrent/usenet and add it to qbittorrent. But real benefit is having sonarr/radarr look for new shows/movies the way you told them and grab torrents -> rename -> place in library -> enjoy amazing jellyfin/plex. Holly automation of home media, amazing experience. Just look at OPs compose file, its all you need. I would just consider one more container, gluetun to hide everything behind VPN (if you are paying for one)

      I was just starting to fiddle with the Starr programs so i didn’t realize that the proper way to use it is to sync the torrent clients directly to sonarr and radarr. The issue happened on those programs all the same though. (fixed it already though)
