Hey — you haven't broken anything, this is a common one with qBittorrent specifically. qBittorrent is one of the few apps that sits behind your VPN, so its page can fail to connect while everything else looks fine — even when the app itself is running, which is what your log is showing. Quickest way to sort it: open your terminal and run sparkbox urls — it prints every app with its real address. Open the qBittorrent one (ends in :8089) straight in your browser. If it still won't load, run sudo sparkbox doctor and paste what it says, and I'll take it from there.

@macbook45 If you have qBittorrent running behind Gluetun, you more than likely have the qBittorrent WebUI being pushed to a different port through Gluetun. Check to see if theres a port exposing the qBittorrent WebUI (something like 8081 or similar). It would be in the Gluetun config files probably. Could also try typing the actual IP Address instead of "localhost", that could sometimes be an issue with Gluetun routing through a VPN (worth a shot anyways).
