Cannot add qBittorrent v4.0.3 download client

[TigerbotHesh]

EDIT: Setting it to browse to 127.0.0.1 (as opposed to localhost) resolved the issue, pinging localhost was trying to reach the IPv6 address which was blocked by my iptables/firewall rules.

I’m setting up Sonarr for the first time and am having trouble configuring qBittorrent as my download client.

I think it’s trying to access http://localhost:port/login, however when I try that address in my browser, I just get a ‘failed’ message (not 404, just the word failed). Going to http://localhost:port/ in a browser works fine from the machine.

Has anyone else been able to setup the latest qBittorrent as their client? Or is this something I should be submitting as an issue on GitHub?

Sonarr Version: 2.0.0.5085
Mono Version: 4.6.2
Debian Sid

My logs are as follows:

I did a test with 4.0.3 and it seems to be working (qBit and Sonarr are running under Windows).

qBit settings:

Setting up qBittorrent on my Windows box appears to be accessible from Debian, so I’ll try a few other things or maybe even see if I can reproduce the issue in a VM.

Thanks for trying it out though, very much appreciated.
