Hi,
We have purchased a x10 user license for our customer, but the service will not start.
I submitted a support ticket 2 days ago, but have still not received a satisfactory reply. I requested an update yesterday, but got silence!
Ticket #GUO-214-66703
====================snip===========================
We have newly installed OpanVPN-AS on a customer server, and licensed it (XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX).
However, the service won't start, reporting the following;
---------------------snip------------------
Error:
service failed to start due to unresolved dependencies: set(['user'])
service failed to start due to unresolved dependencies: set(['iptables_openvpn'])
Service deferred error: IPTablesServiceBase: failed to run iptables-restore [status=1]: ['iptables-restore: line 1629 failed']: internet/defer:323,sagent/ipts:122,sagent/ipts:49,<string>:1,sagent/sagent_entry:17,util/mycprof:11,<string>:1,sagent/sagent_entry:14,sagent/sagent_entry:11,util/daemon:28,util/daemon:69,application/app:423,scripts/_twistd_unix:202,application/app:445,application/app:348,internet/base:1166,internet/base:1175,internet/base:752,internet/process:45,internet/process:306,internet/_baseprocess:48,internet/process:775,internet/_baseprocess:60,svc/pp:117,svc/svcnotify:32,internet/defer:238,internet/defer:307,internet/defer:323,sagent/ipts:122,sagent/ipts:49,util/error:61,util/error:44

I have attached the relevant portion of the openvpnas.log to this ticket.
I set the priority of this ticket to 'Urgent' because our customer is very anxious to use the system ASAP.
Can you please let me know how to resolve this issue?

Whilst I was waiting for a response on this ticket, I have been looking
further, to no avail.
When trying to start the service (via the WebUI), I do also see this in
messages;
Oct 19 16:21:52 server kernel: [2356459.138034] ip_tables: MARK target:
only valid in mangle table, not filter
A little more information about the server;
root@server [~]# uname -a && cat /etc/redhat-release && rpm -qa | grep
openvpn
Linux server.xxxxxxxxxxxx.com 2.6.18-371.12.1.el5 #1 SMP Wed Sep 3
16:22:34 EDT 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
CentOS release 5.8 (Final)
openvpn-as-2.0.6-CentOS5.x86_64.rpm
====================snip===========================
It was suggested this issue may be due to using OpenVZ, but this is not a virtualised server, but rather a standard dedicated one.
Our customer is getting very annoyed at having to wait, and we may well lose the business on this delay. When paying/licensing a solution, we would expect better support, or else why not simply deploy community/open-source.
Is someone able to assist with this issue?
Regards,
Nick
