Setup: Compose file with glueton, qbittorrent, firefox, tied together with network_mode: “service:gluetun”
Problem: When trying to view the webgui at :8080 from the firefox instance running in docker, the torrent window doesn’t populate even though it is possible to add torrents, view and modify settings, and see the current bandwidth used.
Accessing the same webgui at :8080 from the host works normally and all torrents are visible.
Changing the GUI from the default to an alternative skin also allows the torrents to be viewed from within the Firefox instance as well as from the host.
I have checked to make sure all tags in the torrents are present in the webgui.
Attempted clearing the cache.
