swear to goodness I have tried a million different iterations. I literally need
"EXPLAIN TO ME LIKE I AM 5 - how to setup vpn in YAMS."

I tried wireguard.

Failed to get qBittorrent IP from any endpoint

I know I am missing something inherently basic.

I just cant seem to get past the failure message.

I have copied and pasted every single option that I can think of to make this work. I have taken examples from airvpn's page as well as YAMS walkthrough for vpns including AIRVPN

Here is a copy of my YAML for GLUETUN

Someone please put me out of my misery

Gluetun is our VPN, so you can download torrents safely

restart: unless-stopped
networks:
  yams_network:
    ipv4_address: 172.60.0.18

FYI I did search.... I did read.... I did triple check... I am missing something inherently stupid I am sure

TIA!!!

Hey @kromz!

Did you read the documentation for AirVPN? I'm guessing that you didn't, because there are two things I see are incorrect:

• AirVPN doesn't need a WIREGUARD_PUBLIC_KEY.
• "Europe" is not a valid country for SERVER_COUNTRIES.

Please, read the docs for your VPN.

Cheers!

Roger.

i did i promise.... i really tried every iteration of options and kept getting errors so i tried this version and it failed...

I will take another look and try again.

i think my issue is that i am able to run gluetun on its own in docker with airvpn .....

anyway thanks for the reply.... i dont like to waste people's time .... but sometimes i just dont get stuff

best,
Paul

No worries Paul! We are all learning here

Let me know if you tried things our and need more help

Cheers!

Roger.

see i knew it was something basic...........like really basic.
THANK YOU

THANKS AGAIN ROGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
