TUN Error: assign: The handle is invalid.: The handle is invalid.

Post by Jounouchi » Wed May 11, 2022 11:55 am

Hi all, new to OpenVPN, I am having issue on my Windows client when each hour it tries to do a handshake (not sure if handshake is the correct terms or not).

Getting below error, it will disconnect and ask to reconnect manually again, any idea?

Exception:
TAP: ARP flush succeeded
TAP handle: a40c000000000000
⏎[May 11, 2022, 17:30:15] TUN Error: assign: The handle is invalid.: The handle is invalid.
⏎[May 11, 2022, 17:30:15] EVENT: TUN_SETUP_FAILED assign: The handle is invalid.: The handle is invalid.⏎[May 11, 2022, 17:30:15] EVENT: DISCONNECTED ⏎[May 11, 2022, 17:30:15] Client exception in transport_recv: tun_exception: not connected

Many thanks for the help.
