Title: OpenVPN Issue Unable to contact daemon Service not running?
Post by: database14 on December 01, 2021, 11:59:34 AM
Hi All.

i need some guidance on an issue i am having with OpenVPN Server.

As the title states, upon creation of the OpenVPN Server, Status states Unable to Contact Daemon, Service Not Running?

Here is the log file where Interfaces seems busy doing something else ?!

2021-12-01T05:41:23   openvpn[71991]   Exiting due to fatal error

Any Insight would be helpful.

Best regards.
