Title: [SOLVED] OpenVPN Server: Cannot open TUN/TAP dev /dev/tun2: Device busy
Post by: BeNe on February 01, 2020, 08:48:55 pm

Hello!

i upgraded very successful to 20.1 - thanks for that.
All Services excluded OpenVPN-Server are running fine. The OpenVPN Server stopped and i´m unable to start it.
It worked fine before in 19.x

Here is the Log:

Code: [Select]

Is there anything else i can test or provide to debug ?
Thank you!

Reboot of the machine fixed the problem!  ::)
