I recently upgraded from 44048 to 47381 and after setting up the openvpn server I see the following in syslog:

Sep 20 14:59:40 dd-wrt daemon.err openvpn[3111]: OpenSSL: error:0908F066:lib(9):func(143):reason(102)
Sep 20 14:59:40 dd-wrt daemon.err openvpn[3111]: OpenSSL: error:140AD009:lib(20):func(173):reason(9)
Sep 20 14:59:40 dd-wrt daemon.err openvpn[3111]: Cannot load certificate file /tmp/openvpn/cert.pem
Sep 20 14:59:40 dd-wrt daemon.notice openvpn[3111]: Exiting due to fatal error

Do I need to alter some settings on the newer config? I compared my previous setup with the newer egc guide and none of the settings that were different from the older guide seemed to make any difference. Is openvpn not working on this build? I don't see any comments to this effect in the thread. Thanks for any help!!

What router are you using?

The problem is your public server certificate.

Maybe you did not copy it in its entirety or switched certificates?

If the certificates are really old you have to generate new ones.

P.S. I did not see your posting in the build thread but maybe I did not look good enough Sad

you are right, I'm an idiot, I missed part of the certificate when copying. Thank you very much!! This is like the third or fourth time you answered a stupid question of mine. lol.

P.S. it was a 1900ac and I meant that no one complained that it wasn't working in the build thread. I guess that is because it is working fine.

You're not an idiot; you're human, bound to make mistakes. We all do. Sh*t happens. Move forward.
