I'm running the webUI only for 5.0.3 on an Asustor AS5402T using docker/portainer. I can search for torrents but when I want to download them, the URL shows up encoded like below. If I don't correct the URL, it fails with a "No such file or directory [generic:2]" error.

However, when I correct the coding, I get a python error about missing data in the torrent file.

If I manually add a torrent file to a watched directory, it works with no issue.
What's going on? Is this an actual bug?

How do you download them though? The link you got there is the description link and NOT the actual link.

If you double-click or right-click -> Download, you get the pop-up with all the details and you can start the download. As you can see, the link is a magnet link there - TPB does not publish torrents, they haven't done so for years now.
