Free SSH tunnel error: "failed to parse quick Tunnel ID: invalid UUID length: 0"

[ztgasdf]

Command run: cloudflared tunnel --url ssh://localhost:22 --logfile ./cloudflared.log --metrics localhost:45678

Version used: cloudflared version 2021.10.2 (built 2021-10-14-1509 UTC)

2021-10-15T03:14:07Z INF Thank you for trying Cloudflare Tunnel. Doing so, without a Cloudflare account, is a quick way to experiment and try it out. However, be aware that these account-less Tunnels have no uptime guarantee. If you intend to use Tunnels in production you should use a pre-created named tunnel by following: https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/connections/connect-apps

Also effective by this, so seem all our users who use cloudflared to get randomized links for their self-hosted game instances.

Thanks for the report. We are investigating the issue (which is confirmed).

Note that these types of tunnels (where you haven't created a Cloudflare account) are meant for ephemeral usage and have less guarantees of uptime.
If you are relying on them, we highly encourage you to create a Cloudflare account and pre-create your Named Tunnels as per https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/connections/connect-apps/install-and-setup/tunnel-guide

[nmldiegues]

The impact should be over and you should now be able to run these account-less "try Cloudflare" tunnels again.

[nmldiegues]

Just to re-iterate: if you had been using non-"try" Tunnels, this would not have occurred. Please refer to https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/connections/connect-apps/install-and-setup/tunnel-guide for how to get started if you are keen on using Tunnels.

@nmldiegues Understood. I'll keep this in mind in the future.

Hi,

failed to parse quick Tunnel ID: invalid UUID length: 0

I am getting the same issue with anonymous tunnels again. Could it be related to yesterday's outage?

[KrisCoulson]

@LostRuins you're not the only one on this issue tonight. Must be something up.

[shadowchiki]

hi, i am getting the same error than @LostRuins

[LostRuins]

Cloudflarestatus.com does show that "tunnels" is up but trying to create one with cloudflared fails.

Hoping it will be resolved soon.

I'm getting the same issue with Tunnels. 🙋‍♂️

Are you guys facing this same issue? failed to parse quick Tunnel ID: invalid UUID length: 0

[incubiq]

I have the same error... existing tunnels (before outage) are running OK, but unable to create a new one

[teddybear082]

same

[sudarshan-reddy]

Hello. We are aware of this issue and working on it. However, as a work around, you should still be able to create a standard Named Tunnel which is attached to a Zone. I will post an update on this thread once we fix this.

This is an ongoing issue (for the past ~12hrs now):

Still happens occasionally.
