Running 4.6.1

I cannot loggin using the webUi

Using the randomly generated password from the docker console log

When used with the user of "admin" I get the message saying incorrect credentials.

Tried copy and paste and typing in directly.
Tried different browser. (3 browsers in total included one that has just been downloaded and never used before.)
Tried restarting the docker and using the newly generated password.

The most important change has to do with WebUI. It affects users that haven't set their own credentials and are use the default ones. Those will not be accepted now and qBittorrent will generate a random password and output it in the console for you to use. Then you can login and configure a password.

Maybe the docker image is not updated to work with this new behavior? qBittorrent does NOT have an official Docker image.

I have the same problem.
The random password only shows when i quit the process.
I assume a new is generated on proccess start up. But it doesnt show in the logs until i shut off the process.

Try to set it up in the config file and then you don't have to use the new random one.

Downgrade your container to 4.6.0
Set a password using the UI
Change the container to latest

Quite new to docker, is there guide how to downgrade the qBittorrent container?

depending on your method, you just need to change the image line in the config from:

image = "???/???/qbittorrent:latest"

to

image = "???/???/qbittorrent:4.6.0"

once you have set the password, change back to latest to keep upto date

Thank you, got it sorted now

I never ran qB in Docker, but...
- can't you just set a password in the config file and never mess with the random password?
- you can also use the static qb-nox build instead of Docker: https://github.com/userdocs/qbittorrent-nox-static
