Hi.

You don't give us a lot of information, so it'll be hard to diagnosis. But, I see at least this in your logs:

Code: [Select]

Options error: option 'comp-lzo' cannot be used in this contextThe problem probably comes from the compression. Have you disabled it on the server-side ?

That's what I have thought but I have enabled it just for sure. But still the same error. I don't know where to look for the logs for this. We have deployed some of our servers with openvpn-bridge but this is the first time that got this error.

So, you should open a new bug, post the number here for reference, and attach the result of

Code: [Select]

db configuration show openvpn-bridge

Code: [Select]

db openvpn-bridge show. You should also attach your log file /var/log/openvpn-bridge/current

hello Daniel,

I just tried to disable the lzo compression from the server as what you have advised( I thought I have to enabled I just misunderstood your advise) and also commented the lzo on the config file and I can ping the local networks already. this command I have set.

Now working fine.
