Access Server 2.0.5 AMI missing in AWS us-east-1?

phobologic

Hi - I'm trying to launch the OpenVPN Access Server 2.0.5 AMI as detailed in this documentation:

http://docs.openvpn.net/how-to-tutorialsguides/virtual-platforms/amazon-ec2-appliance-ami-quick-start-guide/

And I'm unable to find the AMI in us-east-1. I see 1.8.5, and an AMI just called 'OpenVPN Access Server', but not OpenVPN Access Server 2.0.5 or even AMI ami-fb7b7192.

What's interesting is that I can find the 2.0.5 server in us-west-2.

Any idea why this is? Thanks!

Hmm - just saw this in the 2.0.6 changelog, and wondering if that's the reason it's been taken down:

Are there any plans for a newer AMI?

NM, I missed the fact that that is the OSS OpenVPN software, not Access server. Still not sure why the AMI isn't available.

... and one more bit of clarification. It seems that we were using the 2.0.2 AMI for a while now, and that's the AMI that disappeared. Then we went to that doc and noticed the new AMI ID's and version, and we aren't able to find that AMI either. So we're kind of in limbo here, unable to launch OpenVPN Access Server AMIs in the 2.0.X version series.
