Stuck at Connection in progress, wait 10s...

[sic79]

Hi,

I use a VPN provider called Integrity (https://integrity.st) and can´t seem to get this working correctly on my Unraid server, see log below.

My ovpn config file:

openvpn.ovpn

client dev tun proto udp

remote Censored 1197

remote-random
resolv-retry infinite
reneg-sec 0
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
verb 3
mute 10
auth-user-pass /etc/openvpn/auth.txt
explicit-exit-notify 2

cipher aes-256-cbc
auth SHA512

script-security 2

remote-cert-tls server
compress lzo

key-direction 1
<ca>
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
Censored
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
</ca>
<tls-auth>

-----BEGIN OpenVPN Static key V1-----
Censored
-----END OpenVPN Static key V1-----
</tls-auth>

The auth.txt file is a 2-liner file with user and pass

Same here via PIA wont connect but the files are correct since my qbittorent vpn works.

[diggidre]

had the same issue but solved it.
in my case i had written the full path to my credentials file in the openvpn.ovpn config file.
just write "auth-user-pass nameoffile" and not auth-user-pass "/pathtofile/nameoffile"
