Transmission giving a 404

[shawnthompson]

Hopefully this is the last issue I'm having to get my media server up with Traefik v2.

It was working then it stopped. When I go to https://trans.domain.com/ it goes to it goes to https://trans.domain.com/transmission/web/ and I get a 404.

My docker-compose is:

#### .env variables
OPENVPN_PROVIDER=PIA
LOCAL_NETWORK=192.168.90.0/24 # Docker network
SERVER_IP=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx # ISP IP to my server

  transmission-vpn:

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks!

I switched to qBittorrent but I remember that the image you're using takes a really long time to come up, several minutes. You used to be able to speed it up by adding;

healthcheck:
      start_period: "10s"
      interval: "5s"

My env vars were;

SERVER_IP=my-docker-host-ip # Local IP of the host running Docker
LOCAL_NETWORK=192.168.0.0/16 # Local network and subnet, not my Docker network

You seem to have yours set differently.

Also, unlike in this repository, I had it working with the oauth middleware like so;

- "traefik.http.routers.transmission-vpn-rtr.middlewares=chain-oauth@file"

What are you using for VPN?

[robflate]

When I used Transmission I was using PIA with the region set to france.

What about when you use qBittorrent? Do you use VPN? I was following the guide, not sure why I stuck with Transmission. I'll try it again when I get home. Thanks again @robflate

I found your issue https://github.com/htpcBeginner/docker-traefik/issues/35, are you still having a problem?

[robflate]

See https://github.com/htpcBeginner/docker-traefik/issues/35#issuecomment-742486145

Because torrent apps require port forwarding, I prefer to use an image with the VPN built in so that is automatically set. I use binhex/arch-qbittorrentvpn setup as a Wireguard client rather than OpenVPN.

You can get port forwarding working by using any torrent image combined with network_mode: service:vpnimage but it takes further setup. I use Gluetun for my VPN and port forwarding can be done like this https://github.com/qdm12/gluetun#private-internet-access-port-forwarding

I never got it to work. I switched to qbittorrent and it's working.
