TAILMON TAILMON v1.2.0 -Aug 11, 2025- WireGuard-based Tailscale Installer, Configurator and Monitor (Available in AMTM!) - v1.3.0 Beta 3!

It had autoupdated just fine
Mine has not! I'm still on beta 1 even though I'm on the beta track and set to check every night. What should I check!

What does your Tailmon log say from last night?

It ran at my chosen time and said a new version was available, Download/install. But it didn't download and install. I also the same notifications throughout the day other than my chosen time to check/install.

The easiest way to see what's happening is to run "Tailmon -autoupdate" in a separate ssh window. Let me know if anything weird pops up?

That worked. And I know why the update doesn't work! I checked my cron job and it is calling tailmon with the "-reset" option not the "-autoupdate" option. How did that happen?

Oh snap! Yep, I found that in the code... in one particular scenario, it was calling 'tailmon -reset"... but that command doesn't do anything. That's why it wasn't doing any update.

I've created a new beta to quickly patch that issue. I would remove your autoupdate cron schedule through Tailmon, and then re-add it once you have beta 3 installed.

Updated to b3 then disabled/reenabled autoupdate. The cron job is now correct! Thank you!!
 
TAILMON v1.3.0 Beta 3 is out! This is a emergency patch due the fact that it was incorrectly writing a bad cron command "tailmon.sh -reset", which just doesn't do anything. I believe it's something I copied over from VPNMON-R3, which does use the -reset switch. DOH. ;)

v1.3.0b3 - (TBA)
- PATCH:
Made an emergency patch update because one of the cron job conditions was accidentally calling 'tailmon -reset', which doesn't do anything. It was supposed to run -autoupdate.

Download link (or let it autoupdate if you're enrolled in the Beta track!)
Code:
curl --retry 3 "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ViktorJp/TAILMON/develop/tailmon.sh" -o "/jffs/scripts/tailmon.sh" && chmod 755 "/jffs/scripts/tailmon.sh"
 
Updated to b3 then disabled/reenabled autoupdate. The cron job is now correct! Thank you!!
Thanks for catching that! :)
 
That won't work if they have the broken cron job lol!
Was also going to mention... this is the inherent risk of running a beta! Lol
