Qbittorrent update

The qbittorent included in the readynas distribution is quite old (2.9.8-1) and buggy. It appears there are newer compatible ubuntu built distributions available. For example, see here: http://www.tec...

Hello I installed qbittorrentr6_3.3.0_armel.deb from the dropbox folder but I can no longer log into the web ui. I have tried the default password of admin and adminadmin also my previous credentials but I just can't get it to work. It seems to be running fine. I have SSH access is there any files I can edit to remove the password or change it?

the .config/qBittorrent/qBittorrent.conf file is empty.

I would be greatful for any help to get this working thanks

Can this update be installed from the GUI, or is it exclusively command line only? I tried it from the GUI and got this error message:

ReadyNAS-Pro-2
Cannot install application D:\Downloads\qbittorrentr6_3.3.0_amd64.deb

Thanks in advance!

  .deb is for OS 6, not OS 4.2. there's a TransmissionBT add-on available from WhoChares for the Pro (with a small charge) at rnxtras.com
  
  I don't recall seeing any references to a qbittorrent add-on packaged for 4.2.x firmware.

    It's not on 4.2. It's on v6.4. . .

  In case anyone else runs in to this same issue, I was able to answer my own question (since no one else chimed in). Here is how I did it:
  Upload qbittorrentr6_3.3.0_amd64.deb to a directory on the NAS of your choosing (I used /root)
  (Credit to h3nk3t for this idea from and earlier post) apt-get purge qbittorrent-nox (removes remnants of version 1.03)
  apt-get install qbittorrent-nox (updates qbittorrent-nox to version 2.9.x)
  dpkg -i qbittorrentr6_3.3.0_amd64.deb apt-get install -f <--- I'm not a Linux Guru, so I'm not sure that last part was required
  Profit !!!
