Thanks for reporting this bug. Could you post an extract of your configuration that shows the exact value of the up and down parameters, as well as the value of the script-security parameter (if any) ? ** Changed in: openvpn (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- script failed: could not execute external program https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277447 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openvpn in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

openvpn is started like this: #!/bin/sh cd `dirname $0` /usr/sbin/openvpn --up ./client.sh up --down ./client.sh down --config client.conf Using absolute pathnames didn't change anything. client.conf: === client dev tun proto udp remote server.example.com 1194 resolv-retry infinite nobind persist-key persist-tun pkcs12 client.p12 ns-cert-type server comp-lzo verb 3 auth-user-pass reneg-sec 0 auth-nocache mute-replay-warnings setting the script-security parameter didn't have any effect, I tried values 0-3, no change, just like the upstream bugreport indicates. -- script failed: could not execute external program https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277447 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openvpn in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

[Bug 277447] Re: script failed: could not execute external program
RC10 introduces lots of new options so it might not be suitable at that point in the release. One might argue that including ANY RC version into a supposedly stable release is a bad move... (if rc at all, why not go for the latest?) -- script failed: could not execute external program https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277447 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openvpn in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
