Root cause: Singleton caching issue
The qBittorrent service uses a singleton pattern with a configLoaded flag.
Once initialized, it NEVER re-reads the database config, even when the
user changes settings via the admin settings page.
Flow showing the bug:
1. Wizard saves download_dir to database ✓
2. First torrent: service reads config, creates singleton, sets configLoaded=true ✓
3. User changes download_dir in settings page ✓ (database updated)
4. Next torrent: getQBittorrentService() returns CACHED singleton ✗
5. Cached singleton has OLD download_dir value in this.defaultSavePath ✗
6. Category check shows "already has correct save path: /old/path" ✗
7. Download goes to wrong location ✗
The singleton check (line 745):
if (!qbittorrentService || !configLoaded) {
// Only runs if service doesn't exist or config failed
}
Once both exist, this block is SKIPPED forever!
Fix:
1. Added invalidateQBittorrentService() function
- Resets qbittorrentService = null
- Resets configLoaded = false
- Forces reload from database on next use
2. Call invalidation from settings APIs:
- After updating paths (download_dir, media_dir)
- After updating download client (URL, credentials)
3. Next torrent addition:
- getQBittorrentService() sees null singleton
- Re-reads config from database
- Creates new service with current download_dir
- Category updated with correct path
Benefits:
- Settings changes take effect immediately
- No app restart needed
- Category save path always matches current config
- Download client credentials always current
Updated documentation to explain singleton invalidation pattern.
