[wiregate] VPN process activation fails

[martenss]

Starting the VPN process seems to fail on my new Wiregate box.

I get following errors in the log file:

Sun Aug 29 20:54:01 2010 OpenVPN 2.1_rc11 i486-pc-linux-gnu [SSL] [LZO2] [EPOLL] [PKCS11] built on Sep 18 2008
Sun Aug 29 20:54:01 2010 NOTE: your local LAN uses the extremely common subnet address 192.168.0.x or 192.168.1.x. Be aware that this might create routing conflicts if you connect to the VPN server from public locations such as internet cafes that use the same subnet.
Sun Aug 29 20:54:01 2010 Cannot open keys/this-server-ca/dh1024.pem for DH parameters: error:02001002:system library:fopen:No such file or directory: error:2006D080:BIO routines:BIO_new_file:no such file
Sun Aug 29 20:54:01 2010 Exiting

Does it mean the key generation at first start-up failed?
I let the box run for more than an hour...

Thanks for your help.

Hmm, looking at your order-date you shouldn't suffer from this problem but please click on "Alle Updates installieren" and then restart once (on Main-page-> "Gerät neu starten"), this should fix the missing key.
(Re-)download the Client-config if already done, as the key is missing there then either.

This didn´t help, still the same error.

Any other suggestion?

Scary, if you don't mind please activate the Management-VPN (Wartungs-VPN on Main-page) and give me the wiregateXX-Id by eMail/PN, then i'll hav a look what goes wrong here...

While writing this, I found the problem: with the last update once again the script responsible for creating the keys has wrong CRLF
So either management-VPN, it's a matter of minutes) or wait for the next Update, suppose tomorrow/Tuesday latest.

Thanks for the flowers! No issue, the one making the bug should also fix it ASAP
And thats what the Management-VPN was made for: being able to fix whatvever problem ASAP; I don't claim any software to be error-free, but there should be a way to be able to fix it straight away

BTW: for other readers: it's no issue to call or write in English, although the Webif is yet only German..
