[FIXED][Radarr and Sonarr] Download clients not connecting anymore

Post by ila »

Hi :)
First of all, thank you for creating this ressource, it fits exactly my family's needs and I look forward to have it fully running

I managed to install everything after a while, it worked for a few hours but now I'm having issues with both Radarr and Sonarr connecting to the download clients (qBit and SABnzdb) and I cannot find what possibly changed for it not to connect anymore
All clients are up and running, can be accessed through my browser, qBit still seeding/downloading and still goes down when I turn off gluetun alone
yams check-vpn gives me a proper result too

I did not change either the passwords qbit or the API key of SABnzdb and yet they can't connect to them.
I did try to delete the "manual setup" through "Settings - Download clients" to re link them, but I only get the messages "Unable to connect to (qBit or SABnzd)" on both Radarr and Sonarr, and I checked my login info several times, even went back to the installation tutorial, restarted the containers several time : same issue :/

I did add a NGINX reverse proxy container to yams that only connects to jellyfin through duckdns, but I didn't use any of those ports
I tried to stop the NGINX container alone and left the other running to see if it was causing the issue but the problem is still here
I'm really confused as everything seems to be the same than before, I don't understand what I did to cause this and I can't seem to find the issue
All logs are clean, except for "couldn't connect to download clients due to error" in the logs of Radarr and Sonarr

I'm definitely missing something and already spent over a day trying to fix this, so I decided to try and ask for help online

Here is some input that might be useful :

Re: [Radarr and Sonarr] Download clients not connecting anymore

Post by rogs »

Hey @ila!

Are you still able to access qBittorrent/Gluetun even though Sonarr/Radarr can't? Can you send a screenshot of how are you adding the download clients to Sonarr/Radarr?

Cheers!

Roger.

Hello Rogs :)

Are you still able to access qBittorrent/Gluetun even though Sonarr/Radarr can't?

Yes I can, through my browser via http://localhost:8081/ for qBit (if I properly understood what you are asking), it's up and running

Can you send a screenshot of how are you adding the download clients to Sonarr/Radarr?

Here it is (I didn't include the API key in the screenshot, but it is included when I tried to re add them)
When I hit "Test", it shuffles for a bit then gives error "Test was aborted due to an error: Unable to connect to SABnzbd, Operation timed out (192.168.1.156:8080)"
local IP is same as when it was working previously, same result from

Code: Select all

hostname -I

Passwords and API keys fit

Try changing the hostname to gluetun and give it another test. Instead of 192.168.1.156, put gluetun. That should work!

It does work for qBitorrent !
It somehow doesn't for SABnzbd (?)
I get a warning on the web interface of SABnzbd itself saying " Refused connection with hostname "gluetun" from: ::ffff:172.(rest of IP adress i'm not sure I should censor or not) [Sonarr/4.0.12.2823 (alpine 3.21.0)]"

The "add client" part of sonarr itself says

Code: Select all

"Test was aborted due to an error: Unable to connect to SABnzbd, HTTP request failed: [403:Forbidden] [GET] at [http://gluetun:8080/api?mode=get_config&apikey=myAPIkey=json"

I went back to SABnzbd directly to copy paste the key so it's definitely the good one

That's weird, I've never seen that one :?

Did you change any rules? SABnzbd should accept request from anywhere by default

No I didn't, I followed the config guide to the T :/

Only changes I made were for the VPN in the docker-compose, added NGINX following your "Adding your own containers to YAMS" directions and checked the "allow access from outside" for Jellyfin, but that's all
I'm really new to this so I wouldn't want to mess things up

Thank you so much for your time and answers
If I come across a solution I will come back here and post a follow up right here
In the meantime I will continue investigating

This looks like the right place! https://sabnzbd.org/wiki/extra/hostname-check.html

Image

And I have it changed locally, which means I forgot to add it to the docs! :lol:

If you add "gluetun" to that list, it should work! The correct format is:

Code: Select all

whatever-you-had-before, maybe-other-thing, gluetun

Add it to the last of the list!

After that, restart yams just to be sure and try again :mrgreen:

Thank you for the report! I created an issue to add the instructions to the docs later!
