Problems with OpenVPN Connect (iOS)

[Openvpnbelsrus]

Good afternoon. I have a Open VPN on the VPS. There are absolutely a working config file * .ovpn who successfully connected to windows openvpn client, linux and android. However, on the iPhone export error. What could be the problem? Perhaps some parameters of the configuration file to blame? Error Screenshot https://db.tt/gBu56HDh

client

Same results here... Did notice that if I install openvpnas on same server then it could handle my ovpn file and work. Odd.

I wonder if it is parsing comments from the ovpn configuration file that is in the comments? I took the generated headers that was just comments from an openvpnas config file and it behaved differently. The openvpn connect client is parsing something in those comments because it will switch its message from 'connect' to 'connecting as XXXX when you have those comments on the OSX. The XXXX could be coming from the comment line: OVPN_ACCESS_SERVER_PROFILE=XXXX@a.b.c.d/AUTOLOGIN that is a comment.

My ovpn config works perfectly with android, various linux clients and perfectly with tunnelblick on the mac. It even worked with an older version of openvpn connect on OSX but not anymore. Just really weird how I have to install opevnpas to force openvpn connect to work with my own openvpn file. Openvpn connect works perfectly for any openvpnas file so I am missing something here. My openvpn only runs on udp and It looks much like yours. Starting to do some research into this but saw your post which is what I see also. My ovpn file looks identical to yours but I am only using udp and a non standard port.
