Hello,

Recently I have ran into an issue where my Viscosity VPN client has been refusing to connect with my config that has worked in the past. It gives me the following error message.

2017-06-19 16:58:19: State changed to Connecting
2017-06-19 16:58:19: Checking reachability status of connection...
2017-06-19 16:58:19: Connection is reachable. Starting connection attempt.
2017-06-19 16:58:20: Options error: Unrecognized option or missing parameter(s) in /var/folders/zz/zyxvpxvq6csfxvn_n0000000000000/T/connection.YpJpuf/config.conf:15: compress (2.3.16)
2017-06-19 16:58:20: The OpenVPN subsystem could not be started.
2017-06-19 16:58:20: State changed to Disconnected


From this I figured out it is a problem with my VPN config, and reloading the config does fix this. But usually after a few hours it goes back to refusing to connect and when I check the logs it is this same error message. Obviously reuploading the config every time I want to use the VPN would be a little impractical, does anyone have any suggestions to help remedy this?
