Seems like it's do to a race in the migration, which this commit should fix:

But this part of your log:
2020-11-17 08:19:29.582424: [TUN] [SCJ] Enabling firewall rules

rules: Firewall error at

specified group does not exist.
2020-11-17 08:19:29.767930: [TUN] [SCJ] Shutting down
Is extremely puzzling. I'm wondering what led to this and how you
eventually appeared to fix it. Did it go away on its own without user
intervention? Did you have to manually start/stop the tunnel a few
times?
