Error importing .ovpn12 into Iphone / Ipad in OpenVPN app

Post by snwl » Wed Jul 06, 2022 8:04 am

Hi everyone,

https://openvpn.net/faq/how-do-i-use-a- ... -keychain/

I am following the steps provided in the link above to import my cert into my Iphone / Ipad. Following instructions, I tried importing my .ovpn12 cert into my Iphone using the OpenVPN app but kept receiving an error informing me that it was the wrong passphrase despite creating the passphrase and importing multiple times.

The passphrase was created when an input was required for the passphrase using this command on the command line.


openssl pkcs12 -export -in cert -inkey key -certfile ca -name MyClient -out client.ovpn12


May I ask if anyone knows how I should resolve this error?

I am setting up a VPN to connect to my home network and am using Windows 11.

Thanks.
