VPN Error: Could not find config file

[djc123]

Hi guys,

I have recently updated to 1.7.0 on a Netgear WNDR3800. Everything is running smoothly which is great - except for establishing a client VPN connection.

I am using the same .zip files as I have been with Gargoyle 1.6 - but every time I try to setup a connection I get an error: could not find config file dialogue. I have tried renaming the .ovpn to .conf with no luck, and also tried uploading the files manually instead of by zip file.

Anyone else having a problem with client VPN setup?

Kind Regards,
Danny

I am also having an issue. I am trying to load NordVPN openvpn config files off their website.

Maybe you can SSH into your router and run logread and see what errors you are getting with yours. I just tried loading a TLS key and I get this:

[EDIT - I just tried adding configuration files via zip and .conf and I realize that it doesn't create anything in the log. I could upload the .conf file for Eric to look at but for some reason it seems like the information in that file is duplicated in the TSL and CA files and I don't want to accidently upload something private.
