Troubleshot with the init script

Hi,

I just install on a fresh Debian the openvpn server from apt. I follow a good tutorial to configure it and I was really desapointed when I saw that I can't connect to it.
After days of investigation, I found a part of the problem: I does'nt really start whith the /etc/init.d/ script:
Whith this code, I have all the logs in /var/log/openvpn.log, and I can connect to the server from my client.

Code: Select all

# cd /etc/openvpn
# openvpn server.conf
But with this, I don't have anything in the /var/log/openvpn.log file, and I can't connect myself through

Code: Select all

# /etc/init.d/openvpn start
Do you have any idea of where does my problem come from?

which debian are you using?
does it uses systemd or init?
