Tailscale unconfigurable

I used Tailscale in the past without any problems but due to unforeseen circumstances, I had to reconfigure my home network en reconnect all HA devices.
That all went rather well untill I got to the Tailscale part.

The TS app on my phone works as it did before and it shows up in ‘my devices’ list on the website.
Now, when I install the TS add-on in HomeAssistant, it installs and starts correctly but I’m unable to do the initial configuration.

When I start the add-on and go to the web ui, it shows me the ‘login first’ page but clicking on that link only gives me a ‘failed’ error:

I did a cache clearing of the browser, tried different browsers, several restarts of HA and the add-on but I keep getting the error.
And that’s where my very limited knowledge ends.

Does somebody have any idea what I’m doing wrong?
I understand that the given info is rather sparse but as I have no clue to what might be helpful, I await any suggestions or questions.

Thanks.

I ran into the same problem and found the solution (for me at least) in this discussion: Tailscale Issue

Hah! I looked around for similar topics and didn’t find any.
So thank you for directing me to it.

Well well well, what do you know, it worked!
Took me a while to find the correct url in the log file but I was finally able to add the device.

Mega-thanks for the tip, dirkhaun. :+1:
