OpenVPN for Android cannot create profile under version 8.0.0

Post by vpnuser001 » Sun Jul 08, 2018 12:23 am

I have two Android phones with different Android versions: 5.0.2 and 8.0.0. OpenVPN for Android works very well on the older phone but it doesn't work on the newer phone. I just cannot create a valid profile. It cannot read the crt files. The message says: "Cannot display certificate information" for both ca.crt and client.crt.

How to fix this or is there any work around?

Thanks,


EDIT:

I am a software engineer. I am pretty sure there is a bug to read crt files under android 8.0.0. I tried several times last night and this morning, and finally I have decided to generate some screenshots for you. At the end of the screenshot generating, it suddenly worked. The crt file was imported successfully. During the process, I didn't touch these crt files. I just cannot understand what happened there.

How to attach the screenshots here?
