Before FW 85 OpenVPN always worked with embedding the VPN keys and cert into the vpn.cnf file like so:

Code:

remote 192.168.1.1 1194 udp

cipher AES-128-CBC

key-direction 1

client

remote-cert-tls server

nobind

persist-key

persist-tun

dev tun

verb 3

<ca>

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

...

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

</ca>

<cert>

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

...

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

</cert>

<key>

-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----

...

-----END PRIVATE KEY-----

</key>

<tls-auth>

#

# 2048 bit OpenVPN static key

#

-----BEGIN OpenVPN Static key V1-----

...

-----END OpenVPN Static key V1-----

</tls-auth>

This does not work anymore with FW 85. I tested this with a T54W (FW 96.85.0.65), a VP59 (FW 91.85.0.5) and a W60B (FW 77.85.0.20).
It works when adding a "keys" folder and the key and certs as separate files. Is that change on purpose? It make it more complicated to generate the vpn.cnf, and worse is not backwards compatible. When customers upgrade their existing phones (using OpenVPN), it won't work anymore.

Same problem here. After an update to firmware 85 the phones could no longer connect via OpenVPN. This is unexpected and unnecessary trouble ... Sad

Same problem, OpenVPN not working anymore on VP59 after upgrading VP59-91.283.0.40 to VP59-91.85.0.5
I have not tested OpenVPN on the Android 9-based VP59_9.0-91.85.0.50 yet, since it does not allow a downgrade.
The change makes it unnecessary difficult to upgrade VPN-connected phones.

Hello,

same problem after upgrade. When will be a fix available?
