embedded certificates problem

Post by lazna » Sun Feb 07, 2021 5:11 pm

have configuration file with embedded certificates successfully working in "OpenVPN for Android". Trying to import it to "OpenVPN Connect" from file, but got error:

Failed to import profile
Failed to parse profile ca.crt, client.crt, client.key, ta.key


But I have no such files in my device, as I already wrote: my ovpn file contain embedded certificates. Trying to search info if OpenVPN Connect support embedded certificates, but have no luck. Any ideas?

Your config looks ok ..

Openvpn-connect is a closed source and so I cannot help you any further.

thanks anyway. I am also tried 'OpenVPN for Android' from Arne Schwabe, it succesfully connect but there is a problem with packets forwarding to its virtual interface. Is there any other OpenVPN client for Android I should try?
