well it doesn’t end there… If I disable authentication I get in and get GUI no problem, but upon restarting Sonarr after re-enabling authentication I get blank screen again after being asked for my login credentials.
I see this error in the logs with Sonarr failing to connect to SAB: 16-9-12 21:57:39.9|Warn|HttpClient|HTTP Error - Res: [GET] http://192.168.0.101:8888/api?mode=get_config&apikey=(removed)&output=json: 504.GatewayTimeout
Followed by the contents of a web page offering suggestions on how to connect (which isn’t what I’d expect to see if SAB is offline).
My setup is an Airport Extreme that directs external traffic on specific ports to my iMac which is running things like Sonarr and SAB. I also use a dynamic IP service to easily get to my iMac from the external world.
the *.101 address is my iMac, port 8888 is SAB, it’s always running.
I have the exact same problem but on OSX Yosemite and I also use a reverse proxy with nginx. Removing auth “fixes” it but that would leave the world to use my sonarr … Basic auth doesn’t promt anything. Just blank.
