Can't login to WebUI on brand new install on Libreelec and docker

Post by Cyph3r »

Like the title says, there is no way I can login to the webui in qbittorrent. Used: admin/adminadmin

This is my my docker compose:

Code: Select all

---
version: "2.1"
services:
  qbittorrent:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/qbittorrent:latest
    container_name: qbittorrent
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Etc/UTC
      - WEBUI_PORT=8080
    volumes:
      - /storage/Qbittorrent:/config
      - /storage/Downloads:/downloads
    ports:
      - 8080:8080
      - 6881:6881
      - 6881:6881/udp
    restart: unless-stopped

The install is on a mini pc with an N100 processor with 16gb/512gb
So the WebUI loads, but it says the username and password are incorrect. I started totally blank. So no previous backup files or whatever.
I installed the docker addon in libreelec and have succesfully started other containers.
What can I do?

Made a slight edit to the docker compose. But that made no difference.

Code: Select all

---
version: "2.1"
services:
  qbittorrent:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/qbittorrent:latest
    container_name: qbittorrent
    environment:
      - PUID=0
      - PGID=0
      - TZ=Europe/Amsterdam
      - WEBUI_PORT=8080
    volumes:
      - /storage/Qbittorrent:/config
      - /storage/Downloads:/downloads
    ports:
      - 8080:8080
      - 6881:6881
      - 6881:6881/udp
    restart: unless-stopped

For what it's worth I'm experiencing the same thing. I attempted to use another image and I found in the docker logs when I shut down the container it spit out a temporary password to login for the first time. It doesn't appear there was any update recently but, new install doesn't let me in with default creds.

EDIT 1:

Upon further investigation there was an update and qBitorrent generates a random password on new install.

https://drfrankenstein.co.uk/2023/09/28 ... ology-nas/

I'm not seeing anything in the logs for the image we are using.

EDIT 2:

This image shows the same thing when restarting the container. If I run docker logs -f <qBitorrent Container Name> and reset the container, it shows the temporary password as it reboots

Code: Select all

Catching signal: SIGTERM
Exiting cleanly

******** Information ********
To control qBittorrent, access the WebUI at: http://localhost:8080

The WebUI administrator username is: admin
The WebUI administrator password was not set. A temporary password is provided for this session: GQqITyqSG
You should set your own password in program preferences.
It'd be nice if the log gave us that password when the container booted


EDIT 3:

Solution was to downgrade to version 4.6.0 as recommended here;

https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-q ... issues/268

Docker compose would look like this;

Code: Select all

 qbt:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/qbittorrent:4.6.0
    container_name: qbt
    network_mode: "service:gluetun"
    environment:
      - UID=1000
      - GID=1000
      - TZ=Etc/UTC
    volumes:
      - config/qbt/config:/config
      - .config/qbt/downloads:/downloads
    restart: unless-stopped

This has been an issue for me with the last few updates. I've found that running the installer from an administrator command line works wellgeometry dash

There could be several reasons why you can't log in to the WebUI on a brand new install of LibreELEC and Docker. Without specific error messages or details, here are a few possible causes:

Incorrect login credentials: Double-check your username and password for accessing the WebUI. Ensure they are correctly entered.

Firewall or network issues: Ensure that the necessary ports for accessing the WebUI are not blocked by a firewall and that your network configuration allows access to the WebUI.

Service configuration: Verify that the services required for the WebUI are properly configured and running within the Docker containers.

Browser cache or cookies: Try clearing your browser cache and cookies or accessing the WebUI using a different web browser to rule out any browser-related issues.

Installation issues: Check for any installation-related errors or misconfigurations during the setup of LibreELEC and Docker.
