OpenVPN on Raspberry Pi, Options error

So I set up a Raspberry Pi 1 that worked fine where we configured it, but here it somehow doesn't let me connect to it.
Portforwarding is done on the router for the 1194 port for UDP type only onto the local IP of the raspberry.

The error I get is this:

Code: Select all

Options error: Unrecognized option or missing or extra parameter(s) in client1.ovpn:42 chickendinner.ddns.net (2.4.2)
