Openvpn client creation problem

Something went down when we lost power and IPfire unable to route LAN network to Red. I decided to do a clean install Core 144. I rerun the Certificate Authorities and -Keys but unable to create new client connect for road warrior. I am keep getting this error: OpenSSL produced an error: 256
Does anyone have the same issue on clean install with similar issue?

System: Core144
Memory: 4BG
Processor: Celeron J1900

Hi lowemissions,
you should be able to see what´s causes the problem under /var/log/httpd/error_log .

Best,

Erik,

Thank for the information. the log said the client name already exist but it is odd because it is new install. I reran the server certificate with different name and different client name as well and it work.

You are welcome,
the ovpnmain.cgi checkes while creating a new client if a name already exists via /var/ipfire/ovpn/ovpnconfig , did you may use the backup function after reinstallation ?

Best,

Erik
