TCP/UDP: Socket bind failed on local address [AF_INET][undef]:1194: Address already in use (errno=98)

Hello Guys,

I have a problem with the OpenVPN service.:
When I run the command "systemctl start openvpn-server@server.service" and then type in "systemctl status openvpn-server@server.service" it says "status=1/FAILURE".

Looking into the openvpn log I saw a line saying that the port is already in use (Exact message is in the title). I have also run "netstat -plntu" which only gives me one instance which uses the port 1194 on udp.

Any help is appreciated. Tell me if you need anything from me.

Openvpn is already running and using port 1194 UDP.
