hi there,

please post server config,

also use lsof -i to determine if openvpn ports are already in use
please remember if you use managment console,it also binds to tcp port as well...

Michael.

seems like the openvpn server process is already running ; don't just start the openvpn script (my bet is you're running ubuntu) , use a 'restart' instead.

after some time i came to the same conclusion that the server was already running however when i try to restart i get the message that it has failed is it the restart script that i am using ? i have also try a stop script and then a manually restart with the same out come
~$ sudo /etc/init.d/openvpn restart
* Stopping virtual private network daemon(s)... * No VPN is running.
* Starting virtual private network daemon(s)... * Autostarting VPN 'server' [fail]
thanks for any help

>openvpn 2371 nobody 5u IPv4 199130 0t0 UDP *:openvpn

there is openvpn running....

please stop service and then:

openvpn --config /etc/openvpn/server.conf

and see if it comes up

Michael.

ps:how many .conf files are inside /etc/openvpn directory?
