[Solved] Gluten ip keeps changing

Post by badteddy »

Hello,

First, thank you very much for putting this together.

Second, is it normal for when my server gets reset, the IP address of Gluten keeps changing? Every single time, after a reboot of my server, I have to go into portainer, check the ip address, then change it in sonarr and radarr to be able to connect to my qbitorrrent.

Any advice is appreciate.

Thank you!

Hey @badteddy!

Does only Gluetun changes? What IP address are you using? The host IP or the Docker IP?

Cheers!

Please, follow the documentation. It says you must use your host IP, not the docker IP:

If it stopped working, use gluetun as the hostname. As is.
