"TUN_SETUP_FAILED tun_builder_error: one of ifconfig or ..."

[svenove]

Setup OpenVPN on my Raspberry Pi and trying to connect from my iPhone.
It tries to connect, but then fails with the following error:
"TUN_SETUP_FAILED tun_builder_error: one of ifconfig or ifconfig-ipv6 must be specified [ERR]".

Serverconfig:

Code: Select all

dev tun
proto udp
port 1194
ca /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/ca.crt
cert /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/server.crt
key /etc/openvpn/easy-rsa/keys/server.key

Any ideas?

I came across your question as I'd been suffering from the same problem, turned out it was the " characters in the openvpn config file. replace the funny looking backward slanting ones with standard shift-2 quotation marks and it should work (well mine did!)
