I know the conf file works since I can run it from CLI as openvpn nf and it works. This is on Ubuntu 16.04.3, fresh clean install of OpenVPN.Īs per comments below I have tried multiple times also with systemctl, it just errors out: I know it's not loading my conf file since the log file is not created, but no errors from OpenVPN.


I have AUTOSTART set to all in /etc/init.d/openvpn:īut a quick ifconfig shows it's not started. I've got OpenVPN working good with my config file if I run it from CLI: openvpn nfīut if I try to start it as a service it starts just fine, won't error out, but it will not load my conf file since there is no resulting tun device in ifconfig.
