I’ve tried my best to find the answer to this but I just haven’t found anything.
I’m running qbittorrent (compose file) behind gluetun (compose file) with mullvad VPN. I had Sonarr running behind gluetun as well before but I’ve found that it is not best practice and it also makes things more difficult as I add more things to my stack (mainly Jellyseerr).
After moving Sonarr (compose file) it cannot connect to qbittorrent anymore. I’ve tried adding it with “localhost”, “127.0.0.1” and the servers ip-address but nothing is working. How do I connect it properly?

You have the use the internal dicker network ip address with this setup. Ie you have to use the ip address of the glutun container. A better way however is to just type the name of the sonarr service as docker has an internal DNS server.
I’m your compose you named it ‘glutun’ so just put that in the host/ip address field and then make sure to put the correct port for qbit.
Ah, yeap thats it. You put me on the right track. Sonarr needs to be connected to the same docker network as gluetun and use the ip-address of the gluetun-container on that network OR just “gluetun”.
Edit: I created a new docker network and then provided it to all my containers in their docker compose files, example: https://pastebin.com/Ycdj3mCqThe name could be anything but I just used something related to gluetun
Edit2: Seems like that created a new problem. Now qbittorrent can’t download anything lol. I’ll do more research on that and get back.
Edit3: I forgot the most important part about computers. Just restart the thing and it will work.
I can’t see your file on mobile, but qbt must not have an IP. It’s network is basically gluetun. When you are accessing qbt from other service in the same network, you use gluetun’s IP.
