Hi Everybody,

I just can't seem to install Tunnelblick. This is the output I get if I run Tunnelblick from the command line:

I did try to clean uninstall with the uninstaller provided, but nothing changed. I did try to look into file permissions as some have suggested, but that didn't fix the problem.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

It looks like something is interfering with the Tunnelblick installer's attempt to load its "Launch Daemon" named "tunnelblickd", or perhaps with setting up the communications socket that the daemon uses..

Try the following:
  1. Unistall Tunnelblick
  2. Restart your computer
  3. Disable any security software (e.g. antivirus)
  4. Launch /Applications/Utilities/Console, clear the display, and put "tunnelblick" in the search box, and press the "enter/return" key.
  5. Launch Tunnelblick on the disk image by double-clicking it (not "from the command line").
  6. Post the relevant entries from the Console Log if it still doesn't work.

This is What I get, while the installer gives me the error "Could not repair or update" as usual:
As far as I know, I don't have any antivirus software installed and I disabled system Firewall

I'm sorry, my instructions were not complete. There were two problems:
  1. In Sierra, Tunnelblick's log entries are shown under "system.log".
  2. Screenshots do not show all of the info.
So here are revised instructions:
    1. Unistall Tunnelblick
    2. Restart your computer
    1. Disable any security software (e.g. antivirus) (The macOS Firewall can be left on.)
    2. Launch /Applications/Utilities/Console:
      1. On macOS Sierra, click on "system.log" in the list on the left
      2. Clear the display
      3. Type "tunnelblick" in the search box, and press the "enter/return" key.
    1. Launch Tunnelblick on the disk image by double-clicking it (not "from the command line").
    1. Go back to the Console application:
      1. Edit : Select All
      2. Edit : Copy
    2. Paste the result into a reply.
