      Fixed and pushed to snapshots and 23.01. Look for Tailscale 0.1.2 in the package manager soon

            We are working another issue that is presently blocking 23.01 package updates from being published publicly. I have attached the updated Tailscale package here for testing.: https://redmine.pfsense.org/attachments/4767

            install with pkg add -f pfSense-pkg-Tailscale-0.1.2.pkg

              I did install this package on 23.01 on my SG-3100, and it appears to have resolved the issue for me. Rebooted as well. Tailscale is running fine. Thanks

                    I forgot to uninstall the previous version of tailscale before installing this package.

                    The install seemed to go ok:
                    Installing pfSense-pkg-Tailscale-0.1.2...
                    package pfSense-pkg-Tailscale is already installed, forced install
                    Extracting pfSense-pkg-Tailscale-0.1.2: 100%
                    Saving updated package information...
                    overwrite!
                    Loading package configuration... done.

                    Executing custom_php_install_command()...
                    Creating Tailscale interface group... done.
                    done.
                    Executing custom_php_resync_config_command()...done.
                    Menu items... done.
                    Services... done.
                    Writing configuration... done.

                    Unfortunately Tailscale still fails to start:
                    Mar 6 05:15:29 php-fpm 364 /pkg_edit.php: The command '/usr/sbin/sysrc -c -f /usr/local/etc/rc.conf.d/tailscaled tailscaled_enable="YES" tailscaled_exitnode_enable="NO" tailscaled_port="41641" tailscaled_syslog_output_enable="YES" tailscaled_syslog_output_facility="daemon" tailscaled_syslog_output_priority="warning"' returned exit code '1', the output was ''

                    As well, I no longer see Tailscale in my package list.
                    I've tried manually uninstalling Tailscale using:
                    pkg delete pfSense-pkg-Tailscale-0.1.2.pkg

                    Which fails:
                    Updating database digests format: 100%
                    No packages matched for pattern 'pfSense-pkg-Tailscale-0.1.2.pkg'

                    Checking integrity... done (0 conflicting)
                    1 packages requested for removal: 0 locked, 1 missing

                    That said using pkg info I can see pfSense-pkg-Tailscale-0.1.2.pkg and package tailscale-1.36.0

                    Any recommendations before I make things worse.
                    :)

                      Same thing happened to me. It came up after a reboot.

                        Thanks.
                        I'll try another reboot then ...
                        Fingers crossed.

                        Unfortunately no luck with the reboot

                          I was able to install the https://redmine.pfsense.org/attachments/4767 with pkg add -f /tmp/pfSense-pkg-Tailscale-0.1.2.pkg that you posted. Got it working after a quick reboot. Thanks you for releasing that early for us, much appreciated.

                            @sabennett I had to refresh the tailscale status tab in pfsense in order for it to click.

                              Same issue - using Tailscale 0.1.2 and dependency 1.36.0 with Netgate 3100 on v23.01 - tried to install/re-install w/ reboot but cannot seem to get the service started.

                                Did you reboot after installing the new package? I had to reboot.

                                Did you also install the separate patch mentioned here? https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/13963#note-5

                                  Thanks @wavesound ! I didn't apply the patch - working now with patch applied and rebooted.

                                      You're correct,

                                      My mistake, I guess I hadn't applied the patch mentioned here --> https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/13963#note-5

                                      Once I did this, reboot, added Tailscale from the package manager and it worked.
