Current Behavior

Running Docker Desktop on a MacBook Pro.
Transmission used to work on Docker Desktop, but I used colima for a while and just switched back to to Docker Desktop.
Running the same compose.yaml configuration that has always worked previously, transmission seems to start correctly, but never displays the web ui.

Following the instruction in the 'Debugging your setup' section from https://haugene.github.io/docker-transmission-openvpn/debug/, when I exec into the container and run curl localhost:9091, it does not return '

301: Moved Permanently

' as expected. Instead, it returns '

401: Unauthorized

' . I get the same message if I run: curl localhost:9091/transmission/web.

Expected Behavior

I expect when I run 'curl localhost:9091' to get the

301: Moved Permanently

as specified in the documentation.

How have you tried to solve the problem?

Ran checks described in the documentation.

- Docker Desktop 4.28

Anything else?

I didn't used to have the ipv6 exclusions in the compose file. They were added recently when I kept getting ipv6 errors.

Downgraded to 5.0.0 and the same thing happens

There are some issues in the log, you haven’t disabled IPv6 correctly per the wiki and some permissions are failing..
But the issue you are having is transmission related so please check their report for support and check that wiki.
I’d suggest using the basic compose from our wiki to check basics before adding rpc etc
