Change qBittorrent Version

Post by ccr_fan_3 »

Hello,

Does anyone know how to change the qBittorrent version from the one that comes with YAMS? (v4.6.0)

I am getting atrociously slow download speeds and I keep seeing people say they've had some success going back to version 4.1.9.1. I am a bit of a noob when it comes to setting these things up so apologies if this is widely known :D

Thanks

You can specify the image used in your docker-compose file.

Not sure what the name of that image will be but I am sure you'll be able to find it.

Hey there, it looks like versions below v5.0.1 are vulnerable to MitM attacks.

I would suggest updating to the latest image found here.
https://hub.docker.com/r/linuxserver/qbittorrent

You can update your the docker-compose.yaml file found in /opt/yams by changing:

Code: Select all

image: lscr.io/linuxserver/qbittorrent:v4.6.0

to

Code: Select all

image: lscr.io/linuxserver/qbittorrent:latest

The password is randomized so you will need to open up portainer and check the logs of the qbittorrent container.
After changing the password you should be good to go. :D
