FAQ Where do I find an add-on's first password?

[Silas Mariusz]

Symptoms

• You installed an add-on with its own login (Gopeed, autobrr, Soulseek, IRC or Linkwarden), and its page asks for a password you never set.

Cause
These add-ons create their own login during installation or first start, with a generated password. Each one writes the login to the QNAP System Logs and to first-run.txt in its var/log folder. If an add-on finds an existing account, it does not create another one.


Resolution

1. Open the QNAP System Logs (Control Panel → System Logs) and look for the add-on's line:
   • Rtorrent 16 Gopeed: the line starts with Rtorrent 16 Gopeed first-run login:, user admin.
   • Rtorrent 16 autobrr: Rtorrent-autobrr:, user admin.
   • Soulseek (slskd): slskd:, user slskd.
   • IRC (soju + The Lounge): rtorrent16-irc:, user admin, one password for the web client and the bouncer.
   • Linkwarden: linkwarden:, user linkwarden.
2. Or read the file over FAQ SSH, for example /usr/bin/Rtorrent16-Gopeed/var/log/first-run.txt. For the other add-ons, the folder is Rtorrent-autobrr, slskd, rtorrent16-irc or linkwarden.
3. Gopeed and IRC also show the login in the panel. Gopeed: on the Add torrent page, press show next to Web login (admin) in the Browser integration card. IRC: the IRC page shows it under First-run login.
4. Sign in and change the password in the add-on.

Notice & Advise

• Search, FlareSolverr, Telegram and WhatsApp have no login of their own. They respond only on the NAS itself and are used through the panel.
• Gopeed also accepts your Rtorrent 16 login or a NAS account.
