For users that run qBittorrent via Microsoft IIS as a reverse proxy an extra header is needed. You must install the [URL Rewrite](https://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/url-rewrite) addon first. Reverse proxy support will be enabled when creating the first rule.
1. On the URL Rewrite Page open **View Server Variables** on the right side
1. Click **Add** and in the box that appears enter **HTTP_X-Forwarded-Host**
1. Return to the rules page
1. Open **Add Rules** and select **Reverse Proxy**
1. Enter the server IP:Port without http:// (for example 127.0.0.1:8080)
1. Open the new rule and change the path to a subdirectory if needed (for example **qbweb/(.*)** = http://domain.tld/qbweb/)
1. Under **Server Variables** add a rule with the following:
Server variable name: **HTTP_X-Forwarded-Host**
Value: **{HTTP_HOST}:{SERVER_PORT}**
The code is automatically created in the web.config file and looks like this (note you must use the GUI first so reverse proxy support is enabled):
<rule name="Qbittorrent" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="qbweb/(.*)" />
<action type="Rewrite" url="http://127.0.0.1:8080/{R:1}" />
<serverVariables>
<set name="HTTP_X-Forwarded-Host" value="{HTTP_HOST}:{SERVER_PORT}" />
</serverVariables>
</rule>
Note you can use HTTPS to access the URL via IIS and it will use HTTP to communicate with qBittorrent.
The tutorial is based on the assistance of Chocobo1 in [this thread](https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/issues/7311)
