[BUG] Web UI torrents list disappears completely on reload.

[DirtHouse4lyf]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

I load up the Web UI, and after a second, all of my active and inactive torrents disappear from the list and it looks empty. The left hand pane will still show the total number in each category and downloads continue, but I cannot access any of my torrents. I have reverted to a previous version and this problem is not there.

There is no indication of anything wrong in the logs.

Expected Behavior

Using the web UI, loading up the webpage and seeing a full list of active and inactive torrents. With the ability to look into the files and other items on each torrent.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Have the container running
2. Open the web UI
3. See normal list of torrents
4. wait 2 seconds
5. list goes empty

Environment

- OS: Debian 11
- How docker service was installed: using the docker tutorial in their own documentation.

Same here. I deleted the cookies and site data and everything is back to normal

[thFrgttn]

Same, Also fixed by deleting cookies and site data

With the upgrade the Tags on the left side became deselected. If you select All tags you should see your torrents again.

Not a container issue.

I feel like an idiot, this resolved the issue. Thank you to the others who mentioned deleting cookies and site data

same problem here after image upgrade. I haven't figured out what's wrong - I tried on another laptop and the list shows, on my 'production' laptop the list is empty. I have all tags selected on the left hand side, I try within private window, no joy

I had the same problem; I upgraded to 5.1.0-r0-ls393, and then reloaded the tab on Firefox and all the entries were gone. The status showed the correct numbers, and it even showed that data was downloading and uploading, but the pane with the list of files was empty. I then loaded the page in Chromium and it looked fine. Then I cleared the cookies in Firefox for the server's IP and reloaded, and everything was back to normal.

I've never seen this before with an upgrade of the Qbit image from LSIO.

I did more testing. moving back to qbittorrent 5.0.4 and all is working fine again, both with libtorrentv1 or v2. qbittorrent 5.1.0 and the list is broken regardless of lib. I suspect this is related to QT upgrade with lates qbittorrent version and compatibility with Firefox. I'm stuck on FF v115 LTS and private window doesn't change anything. oh well it was good while it lasted

Did you try clearing your cookies? That fixed everything for me. There's probably some kind of incompatibility with the cookies between the two versions.
