I'm running qBittorrrentVPN in Docker. My problem is likely relevant for qBittorrent as well.
I wanted to update the Jackett search plugin. The default setting uses IP 127.0.0.1:9117 and no API key.
The jackett.json file with this information resides at \\NAS1\docker\qbittorrentvpn\config\qBittorrent\data\nova3\engines\
When I edited this file via SMB (Win10) to show my NAS IP and Jackett API, and restarted the container, the default values remained. I opened the folder via File Station and the Win10 edits were present. In the container I deleted the plugin and refreshed and still the default values were present.
I opened the Portainer console for this container and noticed that the jacket.json file did not contain the edits I saw in File Station... This surprised me as I thought that my /config mapping on the NAS would be equal to the /config present in the container. Not fully understanding this... I decided to edit the container file directly, but found no way to call vi/vim/nano.
So my questions at this point are...
Why are the edits made on the NAS' file not reflected in the container file?
How can I edit the container file? Is there a "root" login necessary to edit this file?
