I’m running Truenas Community 25.10.1 Goldeneye. I have nginx and Plex running ok and Tailscale was running ok on ver 1.3.29. After updating to 1.4.12 it refuses to deploy, It’s stuck in Deploying mode and flashes every few seconds. I assume that this means that the deployment failed and its restarting to deploy again. I’ve read some past posts and deleting the app and reinstalling reportedly didn’t help. Any suggestions? I’ve been using Copilot to help me manage Truenas. You have to be careful of what it tells you, but it’s been useful. Copilot tells me that kubernetes is not installed. But I don’t think that it comes with Goldeneye Community edition.
You might be able to make sense of the app template here:
I’m sorry. I’m not a python programmer. The readme isn’t very helpful either. Do you have any suggestions on what to try next?
According to Copilot, my system did not install the Applications system, Kubernetes,midclt or k3s when I installed the community edition and this is why Tailscale is not deploying, because the current version can’t run in legacy Docker mode. It would seem that my only choice is to repair my installation by reinstalling the current iso. What do you think?
What is the history of your system and OS upgrades? 24.04 was the last version of TrueNAS that had Kubernetes. Copilot looks to be giving you very bad advice from your descriptions.
There were announcements of a migration deadline for apps when there were catalog related changes. The post mentions when Kubernetes was last used by TrueNAS.
I’m not sure. I installed it last year. But I did do the updates as I got notified in the web ui. I had nginx and Plex running at that time. I only recently installed Tailscale and it was working when Truenas was at version 25.10.3 and Tailscale was at version 1.3.29. I made the mistake of updating Tailscale without updating Truenas first. Now I’ve updated Truenas to 25.10.5 and Tailscale to 1.4.12, but Tailscale will not deploy. However, ngnix and Plex both updated ok and deployed.
Usually, this means the app needs to be rebuilt from scratch, as there are missing values in the new version’s YAML.
I deleted Tailscale and reinstalled it, but it’s still stuck on deploying.
After analyzing the logs, I found that I needed a new auth key. It’s working now. Thanks for your assistance.
