Thanks for your report. Please post the _complete_ Tunnelblick log.

And if you can also post the Console log, that would be very helpful. You can 
filter entries using the word Tunnelblick. See

http://code.google.com/p/tunnelblick/wiki/cConsoleLog

The most common cause of this situation is that there is a Tunnelblick dialog 
window which is open and awaiting your response. It may be covered by other 
windows, so you should minimize all other windows to make sure they are not 
covering it.

No there is no other dialog shown, I see only the notification dialog thah 
shows the disconnected tunnel in red.

Here the console log relative to the openvpn log of above:

Further private emails with NickFormerlyKnownAsPrince resolved his situation, 
which did not hang and has nothing to do with this Issue.

Same here: upgraded from 3.3beta18 to 3.3beta21a and Tunnelblick stopped 
working. Tunnelblick seems to connect, even gets an IP address, but then the 
GUI (the menubar icon) disappears and a "Tunnelblick" process keeps the CPU 
busy. At this point the tun0 interface is gone and the VPN is not working. As 
there's no GUI part to terminate any more, the only solution is to kill the 
process.

Attached are 3 files:

* tunnelblick-sample-1.txt, a "sample" of the spinning "Tunnelblick", taken via 
"Activity Monitor"
* tunnelblick-consolelog.txt, what syslog captured during all this
* tunnelblick-vpnlog.txt, the log output from the "log" statement in the 
openvpn configuration file, verbose=4.

FWIW, downgrading to 3.3beta18. Upgrading to 3.3beta22 shows the same symptoms 
as beta21. And beta24 requires a .tblk configuration, which I don't have. Also, 
starting openvpn manually (using the version beta24 ships with) seems to work:

$ sudo chown -R root:wheel 
/Applications/Non-Apple/Tunnelblick.app/Contents/Resources/tun.kext
$ sudo kextload 
/Applications/Non-Apple/Tunnelblick.app/Contents/Resources/tun.kext
$ kextstat | grep net.tunnelblick.tun
  146    0 0xffffff7f807cf000 0x6000     0x6000     net.tunnelblick.tun (1.0) <7 5 4 1>

$ cd ~/Library/Application Support/Tunnelblick/Configurations
$ sudo 
/Applications/Non-Apple/Tunnelblick.app/Contents/Resources/openvpn/openvpn-2.3-a
lpha1/openvpn --config vpn.conf

Ahah! Thank you, ckujau, for providing all those details and trying the 
different versions. I now see at least part of what is going on.

I think this is caused by a bug in the DNS flush logic. That is fixed in 
Tunnelblick 3.3beta28.

(There may be a bug in the error handling logic, too, which is causing the 
hang, and I will look into that, but the error shouldn't have happened in the 
first place.)

You can easily make a Tunnelblick VPN Configuration and try 3.3beta28. See 
http://code.google.com/p/tunnelblick/wiki/cConfigT#Creating_and_Installing_a_Tun
nelblick_VPN_Configuration

Or you can try not flushing DNS for the configuration (using 3.3beta21):
     1. Open the VPN Details… window
     2. Click on a configuration in the left pane to select it
     3. Click on the Settings tab, then on the Advanced button
     4. Un-check "Flush DNS cache after connecting or disconnecting"

Bingo! Unchecking "Flush DNS cache..." did the trick. I've only tested with 
beta21 now, will test beta28 later on. Thanks!

To clarify: When you try 3.3beta28, you should be able to put back the 
checkmark in "Flush DNS cache..."

I'm leaving this Issue open until I fix the bug in the error handling logic or 
determine that there isn't one.

Yep, 3.3beta28 works with "Flush DNS cache...". On a side note, I'm not too 
happy about all this .tblk stuff and beta28 forced itself into /Applications 
now, but oh well, it works and it's free so I'll stop whining now :-)

Thanks for fixing this!

Tunnelblick is in /Applications so that it is in a securable place. This is 
necessary to avoid the security issues raised in Issue 212.

/Applications is just as secure as any other root-controlled location. Issue 
212 is about (getting rid of) SUID code, and rightly so. Unfortunately Apple is 
making use of SUID/SGID binaries too and AFAICS they provide zero documentation 
about alternatives akin to Linux' capabilities(7) or other approaches.
