How change file hosts for qBittorrent?

Post by ksa-wrk »

Hi
I have NAS Asustor, and try to use qbittorrent.

qBittorrent 4.3.5.r01
ASUSTOR AS6202T
ADM 3.5.7.RJ92
Linux AS6202T-829B 4.14.x #1 SMP Fri Jul 9 00:31:02 CST 2021 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I can't change values in file hosts, and qBittorrent does not work.

My task: tracker on url must work.  I write  URL in file hosts

Try 1.
root@AS6202T-829B:/volume1/.@root # cat /usr/local/etc/init.d/S01.sh
echo "163.172.167.207 bt.t-ru.org" >> /etc/hosts
root@AS6202T-829B:/volume1/.@plugins/etc/init.d # chmod +x /usr/local/etc/init.d/S01.sh
root@AS6202T-829B:/volume1/.@plugins/etc/init.d # ls -l
total 12
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 53 Jul 11 15:51 K50docker-ce -> /usr/local/AppCentral/docker-ce/CONTROL/start-stop.sh*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 62 Jul 11 15:52 K70qbittorrent-docker -> /usr/local/AppCentral/qbittorrent-docker/CONTROL/start-stop.sh*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 203 Jul 17 13:38 S01.sh*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 53 Jul 11 15:51 S50docker-ce -> /usr/local/AppCentral/docker-ce/CONTROL/start-stop.sh*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 62 Jul 11 15:52 S70qbittorrent-docker -> /usr/local/AppCentral/qbittorrent-docker/CONTROL/start-stop.sh*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 Jul 17 13:49 rcK -> /etc/script/rcK.pluginsfs*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 Jul 17 13:49 rcS -> /etc/script/rcS.pluginsfs*

but qBittorrent does not use the system file: /etc/hosts. (reboot NAS)

Try 2.

Isn't your dns working within the container? Check your resolv.conf. Why would you need to modify your hosts file even on Windows? Unless of course your ISP is blocking the host :mrgreen:

Docker is not using the hosts file from the host it will however use it to maintain its own hosts file. You can create using --add-host 163.172.167.207:bt.t-ru.org. Use portainer to modify or from the command line e.g. below:

Code: Select all

docker rm -f qBittorrent

docker create -i -t --name=qBittorrent \
	-p 18181:18181 \
	-p 6881:6881 \
	-p 6881:6881/udp \
	-e PUID=999 -e PGID=999 \
	-e WEBUI_PORT=18181 \
	-v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \
	-v /volume1/Docker/qBittorrent/config:/config:rw \
	-v /volume1/Download:/downloads:rw \
	--restart unless-stopped \
	ghcr.io/linuxserver/qbittorrent:latest \
	--add-host 163.172.167.207:bt.t-ru.org
  	
docker start qBittorrent
