roswitina Hello! I installed Windows 8 Pro German 64 (MSDN). -> Update from Win7 Ultimate As a client, I use openvpn-install 2.3_alpha3-I001-x86_64.exe. The connection itself is working, but after a few seconds breaks the connection from obvious. I get no error messages or so, eg ping does not work anymore. The OpenVPN GUI is still "green", but has "suspended" obviously, so I can only go on with the Task Manager and kill the OpenVPN GUI.. The configs I have before under Win7 and everything worked perfectly. What can I do? Am grateful for every tip. Rosi translate.google.com 😉
flush You're running the OpenVPN client as Administrator? (yeah sounds dumb, but was one of my first mistakes when upgrading from xp to 7 😉 ) It could be a compatibility issue, I'll try my setup on a Windows 8 test machine and report back.
flush Hi sorry for the kick, but I can't edit my post. OpenVPN is working fine here for about 1 hour. Windows 8 Release preview, Openvpn 2.3 beta1-l002 running as Administrator. Can you try and update your client to the lastest version?
[deleted] I am running into this as well. Have we made any progress? Staples told a client of mine that his was not working because he needs Windows 8 Pro. EDIT: Certain it is running as Administrator.
