I can view the log file by tapping menu -> Show Log File but once you are viewing the log file, you can't long press to select text (where i would select all and copy), you can't save the log file or e-mail it to a VPN provider and so on.

So where do I find the complete log file in the file system to send to my VPN provider please? Or how can I otherwise copy all the text from the log into an e-mail?

Wow, I thought this would be easy. I have a rooted device and searched the whole thing for an OpenVPN log. No dice. I wonder if the log is stored in the executable...

You could load a "logcat" app (like CatLog) to capture the system log, which might contain the error. Or, simply take a screenshot of the OpenVPN log to send.

The other OpenVPN client "OpenVPN for Android" lets you export the connection logs too.
