Docker

Common docker permission errors

If you encounter errors like the one below when running the installer or the yams CLI:

permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix:///var/run/docker.sock:

It might indicate that you need to refresh your user permissions. This issue can typically be resolved by logging out of your server and then logging back in.

This problem arises because your user must be part of the docker group to execute docker commands without using sudo.

qBittorrent

qBittorrent has suddenly lost its internet connection

Sometimes, Gluetun disconnects with no apparent reason. It usually comes back after a minute or so, but qBittorrent may not recover as expected.

A helpful workaround is to create a cron job that monitors the status of qBittorrent and restarts it if necessary.

To open your crontab, use the following command: crontab -e

Now, paste the following line at the bottom:

* * * * * /usr/bin/docker exec qbittorrent curl -s https://am.i.mullvad.net/connected || /usr/bin/docker restart qbittorrent

This script will check every minute whether qBittorrent has an internet connection. If it doesn't, the script will automatically restart it.

qBittorrent is not accessible

If you configured the VPN, go to Gluetun does not connect

Gluetun

Gluetun does not connect

After installing YAMS, there are instances when Gluetun fails to connect, resulting in qBittorrent becoming inaccessible.

To debug this issue, start by checking Gluetun's logs:

docker logs -n 100 gluetun

This command will display the last 100 lines of the Gluetun logs.

Many of the issues arise due to misconfigurations in your VPN setup. Please review the documentation for your VPN by clicking here.
