New clients will not connect to AS 1.8.3
Posted: Wed Oct 05, 2011 6:30 am
Hi all,
I have been running AS since early this year for several remote working users without too many problems.
Yesterday I have upgraded my Debian Lenny (Ubuntu package) from AS 1.7 to 1.83, as I experienced very frequent disconnections in the last few days. The old V1.7 OpenVPN Connect Clients (I need auto connect to work) still connect to the AS without any problem, but when I try to create new users and install the new V1.8.3 OpenVPN Connect client, they all end up in a permanent "Connecting" state.
I have tried to overwrite, as well as remove, the old V1.7 Client before installing the new client. Both options didn't work.
I have tried a new user. Download and install work through the web interface, but no connection is made. I can login through the website, but I cannot connect through the website.
What is the proper way to upgrade Clients?
Are any changes to AS required for the new clients to be able to connect?
Are any V1.7 conf settings no longer supported?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Cheers, Gary
