Server Fault Asked on November 27, 2021
For the last hours I have been trying to connect to a VPN network through openVPN.
My connection settings are:
IPv4 tab:
Method: Automatic VPN
Routes: Use this connection only for resources on its network.
Then on the VPN tab:
fw01.vcloud.kirkeweb.dk
Type: Password with Certificates(TLS)
Under ADVANCED:
In General tab:
Use custom gateway port is checked
Use a TCP connection is checked
In TLS Authentication:
Use TLS Authentication is checked.
The log is:

It's difficult to say without your server configuration, but you should first try and use the default client configuration options, namely to use UDP instead of TCP.
The default protocol/port combination for openVPN is UDP/1194, I would suggest you first attempt to use that instead of TCP/1194. If you're still not able to connect, check the server configuration, as well as the server logs, and update your question with the details.
