I cannot start OpenVPN on NS7b2.

Please advise me!

TIA,
Gabriel

A possible upstream bug (changed plugin name and location)?

After creating a symbolic link it should work:

mkdir -p /usr/lib64/openvpn/plugin/lib
ln -s /usr/lib64/openvpn/plugins/openvpn-plugin-auth-pam.so /usr/lib64/openvpn/plugin/lib/openvpn-auth-pam.so

You are the MAN!

It works!
I have disabled, enabled, change the configuration of the OpenVPN, stop, start the service.

Thank you!

For reference, here’s @dnutan PR:

We will merge, then build and release an update next week.

Ok. Right now I was filling a bug report. Should I continue or can I leave it?

filippo_carletti · September 23, 2016, 10:06pm

Please go ahead and file the issue, it will be referenced in the commit message. Thank you.

EDIT: It seems that @dnutan knows the development cycle better than me.

Thanks for the compliment , but really far from that. I barely know how to use github.
