I need help setting proton VPN on the WireGuard client, which will then be used on qTorrent on my media server. However, I’m not sure how the process works. I’m using an unraid server. Any help would be appreciated.

Would you mind sharing the steps? I tried to set it up; however, it doesn’t generate a WireGuard folder, and it doesn’t start. The logs don’t show any errors. (Have you downloaded multiple WireGuard config files from the Proton VPN account?)

I've been using the hotio image for qbt. It's working pretty well. ghcr.io/hotio/qbittorrent:latest

I did use the wireguard file from protonvpn. If it didn't generate the folder I'd check that the variables which define which VPN you're using and your username and password are correct.

Is it not starting or is the webUI not starting? I think there's a common problem with the latter.
