thank you … I think I erred when I cut and paste the cli. This is what I had (see below) I tried the 8090 port in the end just because I know that’s what utorrent uses. But I think that’s just meant for couchpotato, not for what couchpotato is talking to.
> sudo docker create --name=couchpotato \
> --restart=always \
> -v /home/docker/couchpotato/config:/config \
> -v /home/docker/couchpotato/downloads:/downloads \
> -v /Windows/Natasha/Movies:/movielink \
> -e PGID=1001 -e PUID=1001 \
> -e TZ=Europe/London \
> -p 5050:5050 \
> -p 8090:8090 \
> linuxserver/couchpotato
also … tried removing the http but I believe it prefers it. I have another server running couchpotato that is not docked that runs the test just fine with the http.
So I guess the big question is… do I have to do something special with the ports here? or is something else going on and my docker is ok. Couchpotato is definitely running perfectly, it just cannot talk to utorrent for whatever reason. But i can ping it … so that’s something?
(heres the couchpotato log but looks evil and confusing)
