Web-UI locked on Qbittorrent-nox (Raspberry Pi 3B - RASPBIAN JESSIE) [SOLVED]

Post by harryjohnsonab »

Hi.

I seem to have locked myself out of the QBittorrent WebUI.

I have tried resetting the password of the user (i think its qbtuser) that is used for the login - using passwd.

I have also tried adding this*: WebUI\Password_ha1=@ByteArray(5ebe2294ecd0e0f08eab7690d2a6ee69) - to /home/qbtuser/.config/qBittorrent - sudo nano qBittorrent.conf

* https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/wiki/Web-UI-password-locked-on-qBittorrent-NO-X-%28qbittorrent-nox%29

Adding: locked=false or setting WebUI\LocalHostAuth=false is no good.

Trying to login in with "admin - adminadmin" or "qbtuser - secret" and finally "admin - secret" is no good either (also trying a bunch of my old passwords).

Here is the output of my qBittorrent.conf file:
Connection\ProxyType=-1
Connection\Proxy\IP=0.0.0.0
Connection\Proxy\Port=8080
Connection\ProxyPeerConnections=false
Connection\Proxy\Authentication=false
Connection\Proxy\Username=

WebUI\Password_ha1=@ByteArray(5ebe2294ecd0e0f08eab7690d2a6ee69)

Scheduler\days=0

Thank you a lot for any help/answers provided  ;D!

Let me know if you would like more information.
Greetings,

Alright.. I decided to do a complete restore! If anyone is looking for a great (but old) guide on how to setup a "torrentbox" with Qbittorent - check this one out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pdm325bYVQ&feature=youtu.be  :)
