[SOLVED] BlueIris cannot detect Tailscale tunnel when PC reboots

[wepee]

Hi,

I just to highlight an issue with my Tailscale (TS) setup.
I open an new account with TS, installed the software.
Within Windows Networking TS adaptor (VPN tunnel) is installed &
it is connected to TS network. No issue.
BI detected the new adaptor, given IP = 100.xxx.yyy.zzz.

But has anyone tried to reboot the PC?
After rebooting the PC, BI just won't able to detect TS tunnel
I had to shutdown BI and run BI, then only it can detect the TS tunnel.

Just wondering if it is TS set up problem?

[Update]
After PC has rebooted, BI does detect the TailScale Tunnel, but after there is a delay.
The amount time of delay - unknown.


Thank you.

Mine looks the same except the "Enable the HTTP web server on port; is set to BI's default of "81"

Is that actually a problem though? As far as I know, that dropdown box has no effect unless you are using "Bind exclusively".

Anyway via Windows' Services control panel, you should be able to change the Blue Iris service from Automatic start to Automatic (Delayed Start), which should make the BI service start two minutes later than normal and that should pretty much always be after the Tailscale interface is ready.

Thank you. Yup delay start solve the problem.

I may be wrong here.
As far as I know, if Blind exclusively is NOT enabled.
BI webserver will listen to all your physical networks interface(motherboard built-in NIC)+ any network card installed + virtual interface (like. VPNS, Zerotier /Tailscale).
It will accept the web traffic from any of one interface.

Side issue:

Ever since, I started using Tailscale / Zerotier,
Facebook app detected the changes in my phone,
it will flag my Facebook account has been tampered.
And I have to change my password every time I use TS/ZT.
Sigh.....

Eew. That is awful. And it is the kind of bug where if you report it, even in the unlikely event they decide to do something about it, it will take years to happen.
