My Open VPN is broken

Was working fine but now when I lauch it (from the command line I get :

I have already found this :

https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/54796

But it does not seem to solve my problem

Any suggestions ?

You have enough on that log snippet to start digging, let me point it out:

Tue Sep 12 09:06:01 2017 Options error: Unrecognized option or missing or extra parameter(s) in [PUSH-OPTIONS]:4: register-dns (2.4.3)

This might also be worth looking into:

Tue Sep 12 09:05:59 2017 WARNING: --ns-cert-type is DEPRECATED.  Use --remote-cert-tls instead.
Unit dbus-org.freedesktop.resolve1.service not found.

Tue Sep 12 09:06:01 2017 WARNING: Failed running command (--up/--down): external program exited with error status: 1

That said, describing a problem as worked before and now is broken without much further information is not going to take you anywhere anytime soon.

I was able to fix the problem last night.
The problem was caused by the presence of these two lines in the .ovpn

up /etc/openvpn/client/update-systemd-resolved
down-pre /etc/openvpn/client/update-systemd-resolved

After I commented them out, everything started working correctly again :-)

Great, but you still didn't do what was asked of you, neither applying code tags, nor marking your thread as solved. You have now earned yourself a two week ban. Take this opportunity to read through the full Code of Conduct and if/when you return to the forums, follow it.
