Once working OpenVPN now ceases to launch

benbridgman

Hello,
For the past 4 years OpenVPN setup has been working ok without issue. Last night however we had a power cut and now the daemon fails to start

root@debian:~# service openvpn start
Starting virtual private network daemon: openvpn failed!

Server Config looks like so;

port 1195
proto udp
dev tun
ca ca.crt
cert server.crt
key server.key
dh dh1024.pem
server 10.8.0.0 255.255.255.0
ifconfig-pool-persist ipp.txt
keepalive 10 120
#comp-lzo
max-clients 20
user nobody
group nobody
persist-key
persist-tun
status openvpn-status.log
verb 5

The following is observed when running openvpn --config /etc/openvpn/openvpn.conf after stopping the daemon

Thu Nov 5 11:54:33 2015 us=632862 Cannot open dh1024.pem for DH parameters: error:02001002:system library:fopen:No such file or directory: error:2006D080:BIO routines:BIO_new_file:no such file
Thu Nov 5 11:54:33 2015 us=632941 Exiting

Nothing with the configuration has changed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

It looks fairly obvious:

Sounds like disc corruption.
