Note: the if the solution needs an ifupdown hook like shown in comment #12 in >=Bionic I'd ask you to take a look for networkd-dispatch (the final solution for almost all of these bugs is that the upstream project starts to listen o netlink to pick up late ready IP addresses) FYI: There seem to be a whole class of issues like this so Rbasak added it also to a card that tracks related work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1689833 Title: OpenVPN server does not start properly on boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openvpn/+bug/1689833/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1689833] Re: OpenVPN server does not start properly on boot
Seems upstream kindly solved this bug, the solution is to: In /etc/default/openvpn AUTOSTART="none" In /etc/network/interfaces iface ethX inet static address XXX.XXX.XXX.XX netmask 255.255.255.0 openvpn my_vpn_name Where ethX is your interface (ex, eth0 for a regular interface, eth0:1 for an alias of an interface), my_vpn_name is the base filename without the .conf suffix of your /etc/openvpn/my_vpn_name.conf file. To explain, the above causes the script /etc/network/if-up.d/openvpn to get executed, this in turn executes systemctl --no-block start openvpn@my_vpn_name which starts the openvpn after the interface or alias is brought up. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1689833 Title: OpenVPN server does not start properly on boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openvpn/+bug/1689833/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
