Hi there I've got openvpn-2.3.4 under Win7 running. Works fine - except when there's a network change... I have "verb 3" enabled and the log ends with
Thu Sep 04 15:42:09 2014 [dns.host.name] Inactivity timeout (--ping-restart), restarting Thu Sep 04 15:42:09 2014 C:\WINDOWS\system32\route.exe DELETE 12.3.1 MASK 255.255.255.255 192.168.22.1 Thu Sep 04 15:42:09 2014 Warning: route gateway is not reachable on any active network adapters: 1.2.3.1 Thu Sep 04 15:42:09 2014 Route deletion via IPAPI failed [adaptive] Thu Sep 04 15:42:09 2014 Route deletion fallback to route.exe Thu Sep 04 15:42:09 2014 env_block: add PATH=C:\Windows\System32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem Thu Sep 04 15:42:09 2014 Closing TUN/TAP interface Thu Sep 04 15:42:09 2014 ..\scripts\down.cmd openvpn 1500 1546 1.2.3.25 255.255.255.0 init Thu Sep 04 15:42:09 2014 env_block: add PATH=C:\Windows\System32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem This machine changed from Ethernet to WiFi and got a new IP - which meant that openvpn's tunnel would have hung and "ping-restart" should have ensured it noticed and got a new tunnel up. I see "ping-restart" triggered, but nothing happened afterwards - no sign of it attempting to make a new connection. The routing errors are expected, I'm hoping they are not the cause of the issue as we've got some weird routing for a reason ;-) I did a "net stop 'openvpn service'", but could see openvpn.exe was still running. Couldn't do a "net start" because of it. If I manually kill openvpn.exe, then I could "net start" and immediately the tunnel comes up from scratch and everything is good again It seems like openvpn.exe is "hanging" because it doesn't loop around and retry making a connection - like it does on our Linux clients. Very odd. The log shows no real error that I can see - it simply seems to be sleeping without doing anything? BTW I download this logfile an hour after the client tunnel disappeared after the IP change - the last line in the logfile was an hour old - so there's no sign of openvpn doing anything since. Any ideas? -- Cheers Jason Haar Corporate Information Security Manager, Trimble Navigation Ltd.
