Description

I use the latest version of openvpn and a config file(.ovpn) file created from portmap.io. Now I can't connect the VPN with config file. It displays the below message

  • AUTH: Received control message: AUTH_FAILED
  • SIGUSR1[soft,auth-failure] received, process restarting

Please help me to sort out this issue cause my university project's deadline is 5th of April 2022.

If the VPN provider tells you "AUTH FAILED", you need to get in touch with the VPN provider (= server operator) to tell you why that is happening. We as developers of the software can't know, and we have no relationship with "portmap.io".
