Windows Server 2016 OpenVPN error

omni

I am running into a problem when testing OpenVPN in Windows Server 2016. I am aware that this is an unreleased OS for now, but I hope there will be a fix for this problem. The setup is a simple OpenVPN configuration with a static key, the configuration works on a non-Windows Server 2016.

After installing OpenVPN on ANY OpenVPN configuration the following error appears in the logs:
Wed Oct 05 18:10:15 2016 GetAdaptersInfo #1 failed (status=127) : The specified procedure could not be found.

For reference below the full connect log (verbosity level 3):

After waiting for some time it does connect and gives me the ability to connect to the remote endpoint, however the route addition fails. I can't reach the network behind the OpenVPN server, only the VPN server IP itself.

Does anyone have a clue what might be wrong?

UPDATE: after modifying the configuration to include:
route-delay 20 120

The following happens:

I am now able to connect to the network behind the OpenVPN server, but it does not feel right/reliable because of the error messages.
