freevpn.me - Installation and setup on Raspberry Pi 3
Posted: Fri Aug 25, 2017 3:37 pm
Hello, i have been trying to get openvpn working on the raspberry pi 3 for a few days now.
When i try to connect to the vpn service (offered by freevpn.me) i run into the same error every time.
"Bad compression stud decompression header byte: 42". From reading the forums there was a mention that this is an issue in openvpn 2.4.
I have been trying to install openvpn v2.3.17 however when running the make command i run into another error:
crypto.h:437:12: error: field ‘ctx’ has incomplete type
md_ctx_t ctx;
again the forums told me there is an issue with openssl v1.1.0, so i built openssl 1.0.21 from source and i dont get any errors when i run "make install".
I created a link between /usr/local/ssl/bin to /usr/local/openssl as it was not created by default. after running openssl version shows i am running openssl version 1.0.21
Trying again to build openvpn still gives same error.
im pretty much at a loss of what to do here, there seems to be no way to get it working
any solutions to install openvpn correctly on the Raspberry pi 3 and connect to a vpn server ?
