Openvpn can't start after upgrading debian 10 to 11

Post by Thimoty44 » Mon Aug 16, 2021 10:27 pm

Good morning,

I just updated my debian 10 to debian 11 where I have my open vpn acces server. After upgrading openvpn I check status of openvpnas and he failed to start so I figured out he can't start because he can't find the the module pyovpn so I tried to install it via PIP but nothing happend. If you guys already meet this problem after upgrading debian 10 to 11 I will be happy if you share your knowlege :) . Have a nice day guys.

Absolutely the same problem after upgrade:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
File "<frozen zipimport>", line 241, in load_module
File "<frozen zipimport>", line 721, in _get_module_code
zipimport.ZipImportError: can't find module 'pyovpn'

Hello,

Debian 11 is not yet supported. We are currently making the necessary adjustments to our build system and test procedures to build and release a version of Access Server that is supported on Debian 11.

At this time Debian 10 is the supported version.

Kind regards,
Johan

Hello silverr,

We are still working on making support for Debian 11 possible. Unfortunately there are complications and it's taking longer than it usually does to make it run on a new platform. Development on a Debian 11 release is ongoing.

Kind regards,
Johan
