Using local_ranges and Sonarr cannot connect

Post by smcoz »

I have set up local_ranges so that I can connect from outside my local lan using a tailscale connection. With local_ranges set I can access the web gui from the tailscale ip but Sonarr and Radarr can no longer connect to sabnzbd. All are running in docker on the same host.

I have local_ranges set as follows:

Code: Select all

 192.168.1.0/24, 100.xxx.xxx.xxx/32
with 100.xxx.xxx.xxx being the tailscale IP

The SABnzbd host is set as :: and External internet access is set to "no access"

The error returned in Sonarr and Radarr is:

Code: Select all

Test was aborted due to an error: Unable to connect to SABnzbd, HTTP request failed: [403:Forbidden] [GET] at [http://192.168.1.93:8080/api?mode=get_config&apikey=4031cfd8b9cf4ee6be54a0e2dee8cfe4&output=json]
I've digested as much of the wiki as my knowledge will allow so any advice is greatly appreciated.

What does the (debug) logging on the sabnzbd end say when doing this?

Thanks for the replies

Yes, this is a follow-on from my previous post where I was focussed on getting the webui working - wasn't sure whether to start a new thread or continue previous - apologies if I got it wrong.

Extract from the log:

I hope I've provided enough information.

As a side note, when connecting using a zerotier mesh network everything works as expected without the need for using "local_ranges" I think this is because zerotier adds additional network interfaces for each device which are then acting as a local network. I would rather use tailscale hence my troubleshooting efforts here.

Thanks again for your trouble.

Re: Using local_ranges and Sonarr cannot connect

The refusal for the *arr apps makes sense, as their connections come from ::ffff:172.20.0.1 (the weird looking ipv4-mapped ipv6 equivalent of simply '172.20.0.1') which isn't part of the configured local_ranges (192.168.1.0/24, 100.x.x.x/32).

The tailscale ip should work though, provided whatever is set in the local ranges is actually an *exact* match.

Not familiar with zerotier but I suspect it's basically a proprietary vpn app handing out ip addresses in the usual private ranges that are accepted as local in sabnzbd by default.

On a side note: you do want to upgrade to the latest stable release, so we can at least eliminate any bugs fixed since 3.4.2.

Thanks for the input. After thinking about it for a while I realised that I had overlooked the fact the 'arrs are connecting through 172.20.0.1 and with my knowledge of networking still developing had forgotten that this is a private IP. Adding this to the local ranges fixed the issue.

Also, I have updated to the latest version and confirmed that it wasn't a bug in the old version.

Thanks again for the help.
