2.1.9 download

Post by joshtc » Wed Jul 05, 2017 7:02 pm

Is the download correct on the access server download page? I thought the latest release was 2.1.6 but the download has a different version. I'm able to download the package through my browser but when I run the wget command I get a 404 error. If I run the wget command against a older package version it works.

Code: Select all

wget http://swupdate.openvpn.org/as/openvpn-as-2.1.9-Ubuntu16.amd_64.deb

The code you pasted works fine here on my Linux system. I am going to guess there is a problem with the Internet connection on your Linux system. Perhaps a firewall, proxy, wrong DNS, such a problem?

And the latest version is 2.1.9. It's possible the AMIs may still be on 2.1.6, they always lag a bit behind. You can update those easily by downloading the package you mention and installing it. (dpkg -i openvpn-as-2.1.9-Ubuntu16.amd_64.deb

Figured it out. The link is case sensitive and I had the U in Ubuntu lowercase. Changing it to capitalized fixed it.
