500 Internal Server Error: Taildrop disabled; no storage directory

Open PlexSheep opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

When starting trayscale with flatpak run dev.deedles.Trayscale, I get the following error spammed into the console endlessly. Using the app does not work too, the window opens but the connect button does nothing. I can open the settings and set some things but it seems they are resetting.

plex@theseus ~ % flatpak run dev.deedles.Trayscale

I haven't ever done anything with taildrop, even had to look up what it is. There was no connection to my controlserver as of yet, so this is purely client side. I recently switched from Fedora 39 with Plasma to LMDE 6, but there should be no configurations left for trayscale.

Do you have the Tailscale daemon installed and running? Unfortunately, it can't be run inside the Flatpak sandbox, so it needs to be installed and run separately. You also need to set the user that Trayscale is run as as the Tailscale operator user. See the Trayscale README for more info.

After having set tailscale up with the CLI, the app is now working (it generates a new host, not using the one which I created with the CLI). The taildrop error is also gone from the stdout.

Update: The taildrop error is still present, even with a working tailscale setup, but not spamming like before.

Taildrop needs to be enabled for your account in order to work. The error message when it isn't is an annoyance, for sure, but shouldn't be a problem. I'll see what I can do to reduce the spam when I get a chance.

I'm also getting spammed. I don't use taildrop, any way to disable this check?

I've just installed for the first time (version 0.14.0) and am also seeing this error in the logs. Notably, my tailnet does have taildrop enabled.

@DeedleFake should I report a new issue or would you like to re-open this?

Very strange. I can't think of what circumstances would show the error when Taildrop is enabled. I took a look through Tailscale's code and that error is only generated in a few places. Maybe something's just weirdly out of sync? Try double-checking your Taildrop settings and then restarting the Tailscale daemon locally.

Some additional info:

  • Have since switched to GNOME and use a similar application for GTK (I think)
  • I'm using a self hosted headscale server, maybe that had something to do with it originally.

I am running trayscale 0.14.1 and my server has taildrop disabled. I still see a lot of these errors. I dont know if these should be considered errors if the server doesn't support the feature. Maybe a warning ? anyhow I wonder how to silence those ?
