Can't connect to OpenVPN

Valcorb

I'm trying to install an openVPN server on my Debian server, not sure what the issue is here. The client tries to connect to the server (blank log), then it gives a "connection to the server failed" box.

Server conf:

Client conf:

Thanks!

I'm running it as root.

server.conf:

server.log:

SIOCSIFADDR: Permission denied

Check that --server is correct in config.

Changed it to 192.168.58.0, still giving the permission denied error.

Not quite sure what you're saying 😛
I can't seem to find 0.0.0.0 in my conf or log.

Unfortunatly I'm still unable to connect 🙁
Client is stuck on the connection window and a few seconds later it says 'connection to server has failed.'

Use windows explorer, navigate to: "c:\Program Files\openvpn\config"
Right click on your config file and select: "Start OpenVPN on this Config file"

Fixed it! There was an error in my client conf, not sure why the GUI it.

Thanks!
