[Résolu] openvpn@SRV-VPN.service Failed

[walter-49]

Hello

I ask for your help to solve a problem starting the Open Vpn service on debian 9.11.
Since I installed openvpn-monitor
(source: "https://github.com/furlongm/openvpn-monitor") with this tutorial (source: "https://dejavuqa.tistory.com/250") when I reboot my server the service does not run .When I do a "sudo systemctl status openvpn @ SRV-VPN", I get the following message:

● openvpn@SRV-VPN.service - OpenVPN connection to SRV-VPN
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/openvpn@.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
Active: failed (Result: resources) since Tue 2019-11-12 09:42:08 CET; 4min 1s ago

when I run the command:
  "sudo systemctl start openvpn @ SRV-VPN" the service starts and everything works, beginner I rely on the community to bring your lights to solve this problem.
thank you

Did you 'enable' the service to start at boot ?

[walter-49]

Yes the launch at startup is effective.
The problem is solved.
In the VPN server config file (/etc/openvpn/SRV-VPN.conf), commenting on the line:
# openvpn-monitor
management 192.168.0.185 555
The automatic launch works again.

I handed the IP localhost as on the tutorial:
https://github.com/furlongm/openvpn-mon ... figuration

and not like on:
https://dejavuqa.tistory.com/250 where the IP of the machine is entered.

/etc/openvpn/SRV-VPN.conf
# openvpn-monitor
management 127.0.0.1 5555

and in / var / www / html / openvpn-monitor
openvpn-monitor.conf

host = 127.0.0.1 instead of 192.168.0.185
port = 5555
name = VPN staff
show_disconnect = False

Thanks for letting us know but perhaps you should report this to the author on openvpn-monitor as well.
