Hi,

Running 16.04 and trying to connect to the VPN, below I added details I could find in the syslog, what my ip addr show and every command I ran to setup the system

When trying to connect the error message is tsl timeout which happens after 60 seconds

Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS
Release: 16.04
Codename: xenial



ip addr

systemctl status openvpn.service

In sys log there is an error of
"Jun 20 17:57:54 VPN ovpn-myvpn[18690]: Options error: In [CMD-LINE]:1: Error opening configuration file: /etc/openvpn/myvpn.conf"

which if I ls gives
root@VPN:/etc/openvpn# ls
ca.crt dh2048.pem easy-rsa ipp.txt openvpn-status.log server.conf server.crt server.key update-resolv-conf

So no myvpn.conf, I guess it is looking for server.conf?
